How was your Christmas / New Year / Dry January / Lockdown 3 / Homeschooling?

It's been two months since Matt & I last had the time to record a podcast. Well actually that's not QUITE true... we did manage to met briefly between Christmas and New Year to record some World Cup of AF matches around the back of bike shed. What has the world come to?

We also recorded an interview with Sonja Mitchell - the Managing Director and 'Beer Admiral' of Jumpship Beers. You might remember that Matt once described Sonja's flagship 'Yardarm' as "A bit watery" and asserted that the 'Made by Sonja' on the side of the can was just a made-up marketing ploy.

So I was really looking forward to this interview - mostly because of how awkward Matt would be! We finally got around to recording it a few days before Christmas - but I've been REALLY busy ever since and by the time I got around to editing the interview it had dated really badly.

Thankfully Sonja is one of the nicest people around and agreed to re-record the interview. So here it is.

Enjoy!

(PS - also included some more first round matches of the WC of AF... including Sonja's Yardarm against an Aldi AF beer. It'd be AWFUL if Matt put through the Aldi beer. Wouldn't it...)

Shall we start with the caveats?

Matt and I recorded this episode at the end of Lockdown Part 2 - when the only way to meet was socially distanced at either end of a bench in the park. So it sounds a little different to usual.

We've got some fixture congestion in the World Cup of AF - so it's a double header of two matches today. We're going to hold a few matches between episodes and announce a load of results in the next podcast - watch out Jeff Stelling - THIS is the results show the nation needs.

Also in the episode we discuss the difference between 0.0% and 0.5%, and I have a confession. A really little one.

I can't even begin to tell you how hungover Matt was during this episode.

It might just be the last time I see Matt given the latest lockdown announcements - and this is how I have to remember him!!!

On this episode we channel our inner Mark Chapman as we draw the first round of the AF World Cup, and chat to three inspiring guys looking to change the way we drink.

Let us know what you make of the AF World Cup draw - there are some interesting match-ups. You can see the full draw on the website
