No Readmission
Welcome to another week in the world of Mike Bubbins, Elis James and Steff Garrero at the Socially Distant Sports Bar. If you've ever had a day that promised so much and turned into a living hell then you will sympathise with Elis' attempt to watch Swansea City at Southampton. It's straight out of a bad sitcom. Mike reveals why he thinks he has Phil Bennett's Barbarians blazer in his bar which leads to reminiscing about Kim Cattrall on the back of a motor bike, there is a connection....honestly. The lads chat about Katie Taylor boxing in front of a sell-out crowd at Croke Park, some rugby nostalgia from 1953 and they talk about the great Sean Fitzpatrick, one of the legenfs of rugby union.Mike:Sean and Ardiehttps://www.instagram.com/reel/DclpZm0NIkN/?stkn=MXFjb3k0enRkejVyNA==Steff: Katie Taylor https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/boxing/articles/c5yjr8pp0jwo https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dc63ebVDiiV/?stkn=MXdwZXg2bXN2YXZseQ==https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dc62YnfoWEO/?stkn=MWpqY2V2bWVpcmV4bw==https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dc65DgVJPEt/?stkn=cXE3ZnpyZ3k4azM=Elis Cardiff beat New Zealand, 1953https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dc1cKJYILtn/?stkn=NXhnNWxmcDl4a Wg=🛍️ NEW MERCH ALERTWe’ve launched a brand new merch store — mugs, hoodies, prints and more!If you fancy supporting the pod that way, head here 👇🛒 sdsb2025.myshopify.com Hosted on Acast.

Cowboy At The Little Tesco
Welcome back to this week’s Socially Distant Sports Bar with Elis James, Mike Bubbins and Steff Garrero.This week, Steff and Elis are attempting to have a perfectly sensible conversation about a sports documentary and a book.Unfortunately, Mike has decided to spend much of that conversation sending them an increasingly large number of photographs of himself dressed as a cowboy while very clearly not working as a cowboy.Cowboy at home. Cowboy out and about. Cowboy going about his normal business. Cowboy, potentially, at the Little Tesco.Between incoming photographs, we do actually manage to discuss some sport.DocumentaryMike: Untold — The Testimony of Vince YoungThe Netflix Untold series turns its attention to former college football superstar and NFL quarterback Vince Young, looking back at his extraordinary rise, the expectations placed upon him and what happened when one of the biggest names in American sport found himself struggling away from the field.https://www.netflix.com/title/82020375BookSteff: Cyclettes by Tree AbrahamSteff brings in Tree Abraham’s Cyclettes, a beautifully unusual book about a life spent cycling — part memoir, part visual diary and part exploration of the places, people and experiences we encounter when travelling around on two wheels.https://link.amazon/B0bPaGwN8Sport, cycling, fame, expectation and a quite unreasonable number of photographs of Mike Bubbins wearing a cowboy hat.Thanks for listening.🛍️ NEW MERCH ALERTWe’ve launched a brand new merch store — mugs, hoodies, prints and more!If you fancy supporting the pod that way, head here 👇🛒 sdsb2025.myshopify.com Hosted on Acast.

The Rizla Stadium
The Rizla StadiumWelcome to this week’s Socially Distant Sports Bar with Elis James, Mike Bubbins and Steff Garrero.This week Mike reports back from a less-than-luxurious holiday rental in Liverpool, while Steff comes up with a potentially foolproof plan to solve the financial problems in Welsh rugby using nothing more than some enormous halogen lamps and the seemingly limitless supply of Welsh rain.We’re sure the WRU will be in touch.There’s also plenty of actual sport. Mike celebrates the great Billy Boston, Steff brings in Jonathan Agnew and Andy Zaltzman, and Elis heads back to 1990 for Wales v England.As ever, those are merely the starting points.ClipsMike: Billy Bostonhttps://www.instagram.com/reel/DcdYebStiy1/?igsi=ODAxNHRraHp6aGo2Steff: Aggers and Zaltzmanhttps://www.instagram.com/reel/DcrRgvwoWR-/?igsi=bTB6eXc4ZTUzZW5whttps://www.instagram.com/reel/Dcsm5sdO_oZ/?igsi=cWp3eDZ1cDN4MzJhElis: Wales v England 1990https://www.instagram.com/reel/DcS4CkQoN-0/?igsi=MXVnejY5MjlybmVhYQ==There’s more from Elis, Mike and Steff later this week, and Bonus Club subscribers can get the extra episode too.Thanks for listening.🛍️ NEW MERCH ALERTWe’ve launched a brand new merch store — mugs, hoodies, prints and more!If you fancy supporting the pod that way, head here 👇🛒 sdsb2025.myshopify.com Hosted on Acast.

Give Him A Passport
This week's second helping from the Socially Distant Sports Bar with Mike Bubbins, Elis James and Steff Garrero is another fascinating documentary choice. It's Steff's pick and tells the interesting and sometimes moving story of Bilal Fawaz, current British and Commonwealth Super Welterweight Champion. "Fight For Freedom" documents his inability to fight outide of Britain because he has never been able to hold a passport. Elis has picked the "Book of the Week" which is another one to add to your collection. It's "Domestique" by Charlie Wegelius. The book explores the life of a "domestique", a rider who sacrifices his own personal glory and ambitions to support the team leader and secure team victories.Steff Doc: Fighting For Freedom: Bilal Fawaz https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m002zv7x/fighting-for-freedom-bilal-fawaz Elis Book: Domestique - Charlie Wegalias https://link.amazon/B0fRZs7TB 🛍️ NEW MERCH ALERTWe’ve launched a brand new merch store — mugs, hoodies, prints and more!If you fancy supporting the pod that way, head here 👇🛒 sdsb2025.myshopify.com Hosted on Acast.
