Max Rushden and Barry Glendenning discuss the award-winning podcast and their plans for the coming season
During the 2006 World Cup, some journalists convened in what was essentially a cupboard with egg boxes and bits of foam taped to the walls to record the first episode of what would quickly become the Guardian’s successful, multiple award-winning and chart-topping Football Weekly podcast.
One spanking new studio and 11 seasons later, the show’s presenter James Richardson departed for pastures new and was hurriedly replaced by the comparatively unpopular and charmless Max Rushden, who is about to begin his second season as host. Here, along with Barry Glendenning – a guest from the very beginning – Max discusses Football Weekly and their plans for the forthcoming season.
