We don't want to hang out with Stephen. He is mean.
None of the wit, wonky independent spirit or enthusiasm that makes podcasts like Eggchasers or Football Ramble worthwhile. We want to feel like we are sitting in on a relaxed, playful conversation with friends. No-one wants to be friends with Stephen Jones; who has long bragged and thrown abuse at anyone who dares disagree with him on Twitter.

He is not likeable enough for this format - so this does not work. Sonny.
