The Odd Shaped Balls Podcast : Episode 6 - They've Ruined Tina Turner

The Odd Shaped Balls Podcast

Hi All! 🎶 Welcome back to another snazzy episode of the Odd Shaped Balls podcast! Today, we've got a jam-packed session with the one and only Andy Thompson, alongside our favourite voices from BBC Cumbria, Jordan Weir, and Dan Payne. Together, we dive into the rollercoaster ride that is the world of rugby league in Cumbria.

First up, we kick things off with a big shoutout to our amazing sponsors, Santa Marina and Lee McCauley Photography. These folks keep our wheels turning and our bellies full of the best Italian sandwiches in all of Cumbria! 🍝📸

Now, let's talk rugby! 🏉 We're down a podcaster this week as Becca has work commitments, but that won't stop us from diving deep into the latest news, including Whitehaven's signing spree and the West Cumbrian rumour mill that's buzzing louder than ever.

In our heart-to-heart with Jonty, we explore the highs and lows of Whitehaven's season. From promising starts to unexpected challenges, Johnny shares his insights on what it takes to steer a team through tough times. We also touch on the emotional moments and the resilience of players like Jake Maizen and Jamie Doran.

And of course, we can't forget our newest segment, Kangaroo Court! 🦘 We're calling out Castleford for their latest coaching shakeup and giving Toulouse a gentle nudge for their playoff performance. It's all in good fun, but we're not holding back!

Lastly, we're super excited to introduce SpeakPipe to our podcast family! 🎤 It's your chance to jump in and have your say. Head over to our website, leave us a voice note, and you might just hear yourself on the next episode!

So grab your headphones, settle in, and let's chat all things rugby league. We promise it's going to be a ride full of laughs, insights, and maybe a few cheeky digs. 😉
