Beesotted is 1000 episodes old. Happy birthday to us. And in good old Beesotted style, the Beesotted crew went down the pub - The Castle Inn in Ealing - to celebrate fully

And what a bumper podcast we have for you

Im this episode, we talked about Brentford’s rise through the Championship that was halted somewhat by the Pandemic and how that changed everything

Then there was coming out of the pandemic which coinsided with Brentford's promotion to the Premier League at Wembley

Next was the Premier League Years with Brentford's new global fanbase and an outlook on football
