About this episode

This episode is sponsored by TNT Sports - the exclusive home of the UEFA Champions League.


Marcus, Luke and Andy head up to St James’ Park to celebrate Champions League football returning to Newcastle, twenty years after they were last in the competition. And they’re joined by our favourite TNT Sports presenter, former Rambler and Vish’s sworn enemy: it’s only a one-off special with Jules Breach! 


We chat about how exciting it is to see European football return to the city, how Jules’ work on TNT Sports is going and the unrivalled excitement of Champions League football.
