Gambling with The Pope

Is Pope more obsessed with freebies or retweets?

British Super Flyweight Champion 'Showtime' Sunny Edwards (and his dogs) joins us for a brilliant, boxing heavy show.

Sunny talks openly about his world title ambitions, his struggles finding opponents, making weight and the performance enhancing drug problem he feels is rife stateside within the sport.

"Showtime' makes some future big fight picks, including Joshua-Fury, and gives his take on Frank Lampard's reign at his beloved Chelsea.

We slot in some Joe Biden bantz, Unlikely Lookalikes and a couple of big priced bets in the Soho Tip of the Week section.

Uncle Al delivers maybe his best Michael Douglas impressions yet. Pope recreates a Scouse version of Pesci's 'Funny How' Goodfellas scene. Christopher Walken pops in following last week's Buzzfeed article claiming he's never owned a cellphone, computer or sent an email. 'Wowa'.

Shit broadband has lead to a funny, stripped back edition. 90 Minutes of boxing gabs, football talk and random bullshit.

Why you shouldn't be buying Joshua-Pulev. Why you should be watching Diego in Mexico. Why isn't John Terry talking about the Anton Ferdinand case? Why are Liverpool still ridiculously good odds at Anfield?

We discuss the funniest chants we've heard at football grounds and want you to submit yours (@myconvoswiththepope) on instagram.

Thanks for listening. x

Boxing Coach Wayne Smith will be in the corner of Lyndon Arthur for his massive British Light Heavyweight bout against Anthony Yarde on Saturday night.

Plus, is Pope's window cleaner a Trump supporting member of the Republican Party?
