“Big Jim doing his thing really well. Always a great, often insightful podcast that keeps the listener coming back for more. Jim’s podcasting and his TV work are great, no longer Tier 2 media, up there with the best.”

“A lot of ex players turned podcasters, pundits etc tend to ask long questions and refer constantly to their experience in the process. This effectively reduces the space for the interviewee. They have nowhere to go except to confirm or contradict the interviewer’s assertion. But Jim is showing a...”Read full review »

“Love this podcast.
Big Jim is a legend and the best podcaster out there. I think the reason why he is so well liked is that he is down to earth and relatable to most of us every day people.
Gutted to hear that you almost walked away from rugby recently, that would have been a massive loss.
He...”Read full review »

“Have laid off the podcasts for a while as they can get a bit samey. However, saw that your man Jim had gone solo, so out of curiosity dove in with the Craig Doyle and Paul Gustard episodes. Highly enjoyable, informative and insightful. Jim is self-deprecating to a fault but he's a clever...”Read full review »

“Huge fan of Jim and he is a natural interviewer. Listens well and doesn’t let his ego get in the way. The Rhys Thomas interview was incredible - so moving.
However I have a real issue with this obsession with growing the game. The focus should be on protecting it. We’re currently watching huge...”Read full review »

“Just finished listening to the show with Gordon Smart, excellent stuff, would have been happy if it had gone on for another two hours. It’s good to have rugby people as a back stop but don’t restrict yourself to that crowd Jim, you’re a natural with all backgrounds so more of the same please.

Loved the Lawrence D episode; two respected (bashed) brains coming in for a good chat.

“Jim Hamilton’s style switches from the fool guy to sharp rugby pundit, bringing out the best in his guests. A natural conversationalist, you’re drawn into the banter and stories during the hour of hilarity. So good, I think he can now boast ‘Dallaglio’ as his mate after his brilliant interview.”

“It’s a good pod. It’ll live or die by the quality of the guests so I hope Jim’s WhatsApps are being well received.
The Irwin Mitchell ad is about half the volume of the rest of the pod, which is pretty annoying!”
