Summary

Alex, Tins and Jonny May are joined for a Bank Holiday episode by the Saracens and England flanker Ben Earl.  The foursome talk golf, snooker, recovery, Lions ambitions, England under Eddie Jones, personal development, Zak Crawley, and how being around the alphas at Sarries helped Ben grow as a player and a person.  They also dig into a fascinating Champions Cup Final, with Tins and Jonny getting into the weeds on where the game was won and lost; reflect on Gloucester's defeat to Sale in the Challenge Cup Final; and look ahead to a fascinating pair of Playoff Semi-Finals this weekend between Northampton and Saracens on Friday night, and Bath and Sale on Saturday afternoon.  Season 4 is sponsored by Continental Tyres.
