We have made it to 100 episodes. That is almost 50 hours of Ben, Joe, Tristan and (up until very recently Jack).

And then we have a reminder quiz and we ask 'where are they now?' in the second half of the show.  Here is to the next 100, you are all great.  Also a website named us the 4th best soccer podcast last week.
