Marc Pugh wanted to be the best version of himself on the pitch. That obsession with performance led him to nutrition — and eventually changed his life off it.

A professional footballer for nearly 20 years, Marc took his drive for peak performance into a nutrition course during his playing days. That single decision led him to become The Foodie Footballer — a platform exploring the relationship between food, fitness, and long-term wellbeing.

In this episode, Marc joins Peter Lane and George Boyd to talk about marginal gains, identity after football, building something of your own, and why thinking long-term — in health, in finances, in life — is the most important habit any athlete can develop.

1,867 Premier League appearances. 389 international caps. 15 major honours. And Usain Bolt is on the waiting list.

Welcome to Wythenshawe Vets — the most decorated Sunday league team you’ve probably never heard of. And Stephen Ireland plays for them.

The former Manchester City and Stoke City midfielder joins Peter Lane and George Boyd for one of the most entertaining conversations the podcast has had. From his playing days at the highest level to life post-football, Stephen talks honestly about what happens when the game ends, how he thinks about money and legacy, and why the best team he’s ever been part of might just be a bunch of veterans from Wythenshawe.

Expect laughs. Expect honesty. Expect a perspective on the long game you won’t find anywhere else.

For a man who spent 20 years in professional cricket — Ashes winner, T20 World Cup champion, and a veteran of the relentless grind of county and international sport — you’d think he’d seen it all. But one piece of writing shifted his entire mindset around money, time, and long-term thinking.

In this episode, Tim Bresnan joins hosts Peter Lane and George Boyd to talk about that moment, what he did next, and why he believes every professional athlete needs to start thinking about Bitcoin before their career ends. They discuss the psychology of performance, financial education in elite sport, and why the long game is not just a cricketing metaphor.
