About The Good, The Bad & The Football

Welcome to The Good, The Bad & The Football – the new show from Manchester United legends Paul Scholes and Nicky Butt and comedic superfan Paddy McGuinness. Every week, they dive into the conversations fans are really having - on WhatsApp groups, building sites and in barbershops across the country - served up with the humour and honesty only real Northern lads can deliver. Across the season, they’ll be joined by some of football’s biggest names, sharing stories, debates and behind-the-scenes insights from years at the heart of one of the game’s most successful teams. No executive boxes. No croissant-laden tables. Just real football, real talk, and real laughs. Straight from the heart of the game. New episodes every Monday.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍

Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
