All Ball

After a long hiatus - five months no less - we return to discuss our take on the NBA/NFL and the English football coaching landscape, posing the question - how would it look if a Premier League manager coached a NBA or NFL franchise and visa versa.

Notable discussion points were Pep Guardiola at Chicago Bulls or how he'd handle the Russell Westbrook trade to LA Lakers? How about Erik Spoelstra at Valencia or Manchester United for that matter.

The conversation then transferred to beginning of the new Premier League season 2022/23. Will Tottenham or Chelsea challenge the top two, how will Arsenal and United fare? And could any other club challenge the top six?

What have we got around the corner for this episode? Well as you might guess in the intro we’ve got Jesse back on the pod to talk about some F1. The new season starts this Sunday in Bahrain and to say that this first race is highly anticipated would be pretty damn true. Jesse has got a lot to get off his chest with regards to the way last season ended between Hamilton, Max Verstappen and former race director Michael Masi, so you’re gonna hear about all of that and much more! We also delve into who may challenge both Lewis and Max this season, and also lay into Nikita Mazepin and his father’s links to Lord Voldemort as Charlie accurately puts it...

Series 3 is well underway after our Super Bowl 56 preview in our last episode and what a game that was. We’re still getting over the fact that our guest David Cartlidge guessed both the final score and the Super Bowl MVP correctly, Rams 23-20, Cooper Kupp MVP…if you don’t believe us then go and listen to the ep! Nevertheless, what about this episode in particular? Well for this one its just me and Charlie and we’re each picking what we call a disrespected XI, this is football-related and the aim is to shoutout some players that we feel get nowhere near the credit that they deserve. Hopefully you’ll agree with some of the names that we come up with and hopefully it gives you a trip down nostalgia/memory lane, because it sure did for us. Let us know who’s XI you think is best and the most disrespected via @AllBallPodcast1 and @all_ball_podcast on Twitter and Instagram respectively!

Welcome to Series 3 everybody! Seeing as its the Super Bowl this Sunday, it would be rude not to launch the new series talking about a bit of grid iron, so we're gonna do exactly that. Joining us for this one is ESPN UK's David Cartlidge to talk about this weekend's Rams vs Bengals match-up in SB56. We'll also be talking about those crazy play-offs, the futures of the Chiefs, Aaron Rodgers and Antonio Brown respectively, Tom Brady's retirement, Kyler Murray and much more. Plus, David gives us his insight as to who to look out for in the upcoming 2022 NFL Draft...

With Man Utd and Arsenal locking horns this Thursday, we thought we’d delve into that rivalry and bask in the nostalgia of some memories of that fixture in the years that have gone by. Joining us for this one we have some good friends and fans of each of these clubs in the form of Kano who takes his position in the All Ball hotseat for the first time and also Gift who’s been on a couple of times before (you might have heard him on some of the NBA episodes that we’ve done in the recent past). We’ll be talking about our very first memories of the fixture, the match between these two clubs that we WISH we were at, our favourite individual performances from this game over the years and we’ll also look ahead to that fixture on Thursday and give our predictions in what looks like Michael Carrick’s final game in charge before Ralf Rangnick takes the reigns at Old Trafford...

If you were alert at the end of the last episode, you may have heard that this episode might concern American sports, and well, we’re gonna follow through with just that. That’s right, we’re gonna be talking about all things NBA and NFL and plus a bit of F1 right at the end just for good measure. So much to talk about so to help us out, we drafted a bloke to join our roster for this episode in the name of Jesse, you may have heard him on the pod before on previous episodes. On the NBA side of things we’ll be talking about Lakers, Miami Heat, Zion, Ben Simmons, Kyrie, rookies to watch out for to name just a few of the topics, when it comes to the National Football League we talk about the LA Chargers, Kyler Murray (what a guy!), Chiefs, the Eagles, Cam Newton…and that’s only me scratching the surface of topics we swear. And last but not least, F1…Max Verstappen, the GOAT that is Lewis Hamilton and how much longer do we think he’ll carry on for? All of this is coming up over the next hour and a bit yes it’s a longer one this time around and we hope you dig it. As per usual follow us on the socials if you like this episode and want a bit more coverage, teasers and all that good stuff on AllBallPodcast1 and all_ball_podcast via Twitter and Instagram respectively...

For this one, you Chelsea fans out there might be interested in this one. We sit down with Chelsea fan, YouTuber and legendary member of Football Daily...Zac Djellab. Over this next hour we will be chatting about what he got up to over this past summer, which went so quick didn’t it?! Other topics include his Algerian heritage and his experiences of Algeria, his Dad’s encounter with a certain Chelsea legend (listen to find out who that is in particular...) and also the encounters he’s had himself with players that include Romelu Lukaku and Thierry Henry. We also chat about YouTube as a whole, Rory Jennings and also you’ll hear about his experience of travelling out to Porto for Chelsea’s Youtube channel for THAT night, yeah, we're talking about last season’s Champions League final at the Dragao...you’re gonna learn about how epic that was and much more. Also, Judi Dench gets a mention in this episode, of all people, LEGEND...

Episode 12 of series 2 is here and we’ve gone and got ourselves another musician to talk to for our guest for this one. That’s right, Huntar was the first of our musicians we had on for this series and now we have managed to get Manik MC on to have a chat with us. A UK rapper from north London that Charlie has been wanting on for a while and now we have him. As for topics, you’re gonna find out how he started out, his experiences of supporting Loyle Carner back in the day, his dream festival line up (spoiler alert: loving the mention of Outkast, Manic, Stankonia for the win...), his musical influences that made him pick up the mic in the first place, Arsenal (oooof that could be an interesting one) also, Channel U, do you remember that? And plus, Charlie mentions in this that he used to put up some mixes onto Soundcloud, do you want to hear them? Maybe we might put them in an episode for an end of series treat or something...

We’re back after what you could call a mid-season/summer hiatus so to speak, we hope you’re good, and yeah we guess you could say that ‘life’ happened with regards to this little break we had, but we're back and we return with an episode with Miriam Walker-Khan. She’s a freelance journalist and has done all sorts of bits with BBC Sport, Galdem, Dazed whilst also meeting up with some big names one of them none other than Usain Bolt! We’ll also be talking about the Euros (which still hurts doesn’t it?), her upbringing growing up in Sheffield, her love for athletics, THAT Raheem Sterling piece, and much more
