Well, hello everybody and welcome to the newest and freshest edition of the THL podcast, where Lerita Blewett has just arrived back in the County of Mayo. Tommy Tiernan is in off the island and I am sitting in my son's bedroom that looks like London after the bombings. Why are you in your son's bedroom? Because this is the quietest place I can go to.

They're watching a Netflix documentary on Captains of the World, which is brilliant, by the way, that World Cup documentary on the great captains of last year's World Cup.

It's somebody who just keeps making an effort. I'll tell you what a good, I'll tell you what a good captain needs. What? Access to fish fingers. Yes. Yes.

Captain Berzai.

You look similar, very similar to him today.

You've got the, oh my good God, he's on the points again.

Is that keg not gone yet?

We had to get another keg delivered because there was only 88 points in the first one.
