Summary

In an effort to become podcasting's version of UK Gold, we're spinning it back and replaying the glory days of QK, every Tuesday and Thursday. This is: QK Reloaded. We'll be playing through our original episodes in release order. And this is... The least handsome co-host of Oh What A Time.. Elis James. This episode was first broadcast 16th April 2018. ----- Our guest this week is friend of the show and Welsh football’s favourite non-footballing son, Elis James. In this episode we dive headfirst into his beloved Swansea City A.F.C. in the 90s; The Vetch stadium on its last legs, a disastrous series of owners and managers seemingly determined to destroy the club and a cantankerous mascot hell bent on starting a fight at every opportunity. Plus we further explore Mark Hughes being good at volleys, share some Barry Fry anecdotes and pull some local radio stories out of the vault.
