| 0:01.1 | Rugby pod. |
| 0:06.2 | Hello and welcome back to the rugby pod with myself, Andy Gude, and my long-suffering Scottish friend, Jim Hamilton, Big Jim. |
| 0:15.4 | Happy birthday, Jim, 47 years of age. |
| 0:18.0 | You look a million dollars. |
| 0:19.6 | How are you? |
| 0:20.1 | There's a few greys in the beard. There's a bit of stress from yesterday. But happy birthday, James. How happy are you? Thank you. I'm very happy. I'm 42. And as we know, I say this every year. Where's the vat on that? Where's the vat? No, well, we lost the year during COVID. So I'm 42. And just for reference for the listeners, there's no beard dye, there's no hair dye. I get asked that a lot. I'm looking well for my age, apparently. But I feel weird on my birthdays. I've said that for the last 10 years. But anyway, I can't wait for this podcast, Andrew. I'm gutted, fair play Argentina, fair play Sancy Carreras, flipping the game on its head. And we'll get into |

| 1:13.2 | Yeah, |
| 1:13.5 | sometimes you get a second chance |

| 1:11.6 | The boys are back in turn. |
| 1:13.2 | Yeah, sometimes you get a second chance and you take it. |
| 1:15.6 | And James, I love the way you're now English because Scotland lost to Argentina in a very |
| 1:22.1 | dispiriting way for all you Scots. |
| 1:24.8 | But we'll be going through all the Quilternations games. Wales got a vital |
| 1:28.8 | win over Japan in the last second with Jared Evans having the biggest Cajunas you've ever seen. |
| 1:35.0 | Ireland got Mac back and he scores against his home country three times. And we'll be asking |
| 1:41.8 | the big questions around the spring box, whether they've got a discipline problem, |
