The Sports Blitz is back for the summer term! On the show, Alex, Harry, Josh and Will discuss Barcelona’s ongoing civil war, catch up on the news from the NFL and look at some transfer rumors. Also on the show Silverstone backwards, a pitcher with some magic tricks and which football player is eating too many biscuits.

On our final Spring Break Special, Alex finally knows what's going to be happening with the show in the future and discusses photography in the living room and losing a sponsor via rage quitting. Then in the main part of the show, Alex Woodward is joined by Josh Westwood and Alex Towells to discuss how Manchester United has fallen to where they are today and what they should have done differently. Alex Woodward also manages to not laugh at Man Utd fan Josh Westwood for the duration of the pod. The fall of Manchester United part starts at 12:05. 

We're getting towards the end of our Spring Break Specials as the penultimate one sees Alex back in the studio to go through his five favourite Formula One races that he's seen (with many more piled on  top). Starting with his first race in 2008 and going through to last season. There's wet and dry races, surprise results and expected ones,  plus Brawn GP, Timo Glock and Pierre Gasly's radio.

Alex Woodward, Alex Towells and Josh Westwood appear in the second Spring Break Special and are ready to draft their own all-time Premier League teams. All the greats who have graced the Premier League are open for selection including Steve Gerrard, Kevin De Bruyne and Luke Varney! So enjoy us drafting teams whilst our presenters are still on break (exclusively in their houses) and spending all their time writing essays and doing exam prep. 

On the first of our Spring Break Specials. Alex looks at the (eventually) upcoming MLB season, looking at the odds on teams to win the World Series, beginning his quest to find an MLB team to support and listing the four things he is most looking forward to during the next season of MLB. This podcast is part of a series of four that were recorded earlier on in March as all the presenters are writing essays and revising for exams over their Spring Break. 

On the final feature length episode of the term, Alex, Harry, Josh and Will look at the situation at Charlton Atheltic, review the midweek football and continue to look at the speculation around Tom Brady. Also on the show, coronavirus chat, taunting the Astros with 90s music and how a minor league baseball team are trying to cheer everyone up with holiday themed wolves.

Formula One is back again for another season of unpredictability, crashes and Günther Steiner swearing. To celebrate, Alex, Harry and Josh get together to look at the drivers, the teams, the tracks and make some more awful predictions. 

Alex Woodward, Alex Towells, Harry and Will look at ridiculously bad comments from Juve's Chairman, review the fallout from the FIA's agreement with Ferrari and the NFL's new lenient attitude towards drugs.
