EP4: Women in Football
Listen now
Description
Lisa ( Lolly Adefope) and Des ( Fergus Craig) address the issue of equality in football, although judging by some of the calls coming in, there’s still a long way to go. Bobby (Ben Bailey-Smith) suggests making it more like Love Island, Derek (Ed Gamble) explains why only the male body can be perfect for football, and Jordan Young ( Tom Rosenthal) returns to express his own unique brand of support for women everywhere.  Des riles up a female caller ( Lou Sanders) by saying equal pay in the women’s game isn’t possible given market forces, though backtracks on the idea once he finds out he’s paid less than his co-host. Starring Lolly Adefope, Fergus Craig, Jessica Fostekew & Helen Cripps Also featuring: Ben Bailey-Smith, Lou Sanders, Beth Rylance, Lloyd Griffiths, Tom Rosenthal, Glenn Moore, Travis Jay, Lucy Jenkins, and Ed Gamble Written by Rhys James & Mark G Smith Produced, Engineered and music by Tom Jenkins Executive Produced by Tayo Popoola Directed by Mark G Smith Created by Tayo Popoola A Furious Styles Production, for Keep It Light Media.  Learn more about your ad choices.
