Alan and Jared's first sports podcast of 2010 kicks off with a special on some up and coming Nottingham cagefighters. HoodTown actually has a serious rep in the world of mixed marial arts thanks to the pioneering work of the Rough House crew like Dan Hardy and Paul ‘Semtex’ Daley in the UFC. Jared put some questions to some of the new blood like ‘Judo’ Jimmy Wallhead, Michelle ‘Warrior Queen’ Baron and Mahmood ‘Persian Pride’ Besharate. They weren’t at all the psychos you might think…
(Note: Michelle and Mahmood are both fighting at King of the Ring at Rock City on Sunday 28 February. Find out more about that event).
In the studio as our musical guest was Dwyzak The Elevator of Nottingham Trip-hop pioneers Papa La Bas. He told us about his band, his love of boxing and who he wants to beat in the LeftLion Fantasy League.
Also in the studio were Rich and Alex from Lost That Lovin’ Feeling, feeling slightly flat despite their recent fine form - a defeat against the sheepshaggers and a trip to Vegas can do that to a man. Jacob from Notts County Mad was also there to give us a run-down on the pies and their game at the weekend against Wigan. Still absolutely no idea whether Notts will have new owners any time soon, but while the wins keep coming it seems to matter less.
