Description

A fun-filled podcast for your Monday morning commute that perfectly wraps up the sporting weekend.

Three sports journalists/former colleagues/maybe even friends/we aren't putting a label on it - Gerard Meagher of the Guardian, David Jordan of The Times and your host Charlie Talbot-Smith of Sportsbeat - bring you everything a sports nut needs to get you through the week ahead.

A review of the back pages, quizzes, trivia, mad-cap predictions, searingly hot takes and well-informed wit - we've got you covered from football to fishing via rugby and everything in between (well probably not much fishing to be honest!) Come join...

Scotland's anger at Hagibis, a lack of Crunch and a little bit of rugby! Paul and Charlie debate the effects of the Super Typhoon hitting Tokyo and the end of the pool stages

Japan shock the world again! Paul and Charlie reflect on why this was an even better victory for Japan than beating South Africa four years ago and where it leaves Ireland

Recorded before Uruguay stunned Fiji Paul and Charlie run through their team of round one including four Irishmen and one man who played less than half an hour!
