Summary

We are still striving to deliver a weekly episode even though we are all isolating... therefore Jake & Spencer aren’t in our usual recording box together and this weeks show is recorded slightly differently. However, even a global pandemic can’t stop us from producing the goods! On this weeks show is one of the unsung heroes of British boxing, promoter Dennis Hobson. Dennis has some of the best stories & experiences in the sport from the past few decades and opened up to us on them all. He even gave us an insight in what it’s like being a boxing promoter, especially during these tough & unprecedented times!
We hope this weeks show can give you a bit of escapism from watching those Only Fools and Horses repeats & building the Taj Mahal in lego. Stay safe peeps!
