Hello and welcome to the

Hello and welcome to the Cynic Weekly.

I am your host, Christopher Gala.

It's Thursday the 30th of April, 2026.

We're on the verge of May.

We are coming to you from a roasting hot Glasgow, Cambus Lang is

scorching and

delighted to say we are also joined by our very good friend Barry Galaher.

Hello Barry, how are you, sir?

Very well, thank you.

Enjoying the sunshine and as you say

we're getting into May where the season will either way I suppose draw to a close and I feel pretty positive after the last week or so so looking forward to discussing with you guys tonight.

Great staff. We're also joined all the way from Liverpool. I'll never do that again. Oh my God. Instantly. Instant regret. Embarrassing. Hi, Scott. You're in Liverpool. Who are you?

No, but that was all right. I've lived here for eight years and mine is probably worse than that, to be fair.

Good. Good. Thank you.

I am all right. Yeah. Suns and a half the Sky, Southgar, doing slightly less shy. John Higgins is doing well at Crissible. It's a good time to be a sale like that. That's it, that's it. Blood, I love the bloody snooker. I've been getting quite into it this year, and then I'll just never watch it again until this time next year. Pot all the balls, Barry, I'm led to believe, with the snicker, that's right. That's it. Put the... I don't know. I was going to say something. Calm. Come on. Come on. Come on. You're not... You at J.P. Morgan, right, calm down.

But it's a topic of fun there, guys. Yeah, listen, I've just been looking at, obviously, like,

the amount of people listening to the podcast, and it seems like the weekly we've had quite a boost

over the last couple of weeks, so thanks to all the kind of new listeners.

I just thought we do a quick thing where we've been podcasting and covering Celtics since 2011.

We're formally the 90-minute Cynic and thanks for getting on board.
