One vaguely knowledgeable American football fan and 2 novices try their best to discuss current NFL news, review the previous week's games and look ahead to this week's games.

In this seventh episode, we discuss the somewhat disappointing Divisional Round games and look ahead to the conference Championships. We talk about the new head coaches in the league as well as Luke Kuechly's surprise retirement, ending with another round of the fandom knockout.

The show where four mates talk Europe’s big leagues over a continental pint or four.  

The football this week: Can Lyon hold onto star man Moussa Dembélé in the summer; is Quique Setien a step in the right direction for Barcelona, are Inter building a team for the future or for the past and much more. 

Gabriel Radus, Charlie Dunn, Archie Hodgson and Matthieu Rident also take a look at the title race in Glasgow, and, of course, teenage Wunderkind Erling Braut Håland and his debut hat trick for Dortmund.   

The pints this week: Gabriel forks out on €1.99 ‘Madrid’ Lager for Charlie and Archie with him in Paris- Matthieu opting for a classic Mahou in Madrid, where he’s calling in from.

First Brexit, now Megxit. Then theres the battle between Iran and Trump, the Ukrainian plane strike and Extinction Rebellion being classified an extremist organisation. We try to make light of the chaos and not get too despairing.

There is only 3 days to go until the General Election! Jack and Ada sit down to talk Boris, Jeremy and Jo as well as the Tories new immigration plan after Brexit and NATO laughing at Donald Trump.

I'm joined by our Working Class Rep, Jack and our Head of Welfare Ewan to talk about working class identities at university. From mental health and imposter syndrome to Christmas socials and financial difficulties, we discuss practical and social barriers to working class subgroups at traditional universities. Thank you to both Ewan and Jack and see you in season two for some lighter topics and talks.

Tom Gourley, a songwriter, musician and second-year psychologist talks to Luca Pittalis about his band Deadwall and the psychology of change: the malleability of the mind and how you may be more in control of it than you think. In this week's news feature we hear the voices of those partaking in the Durham University Hong Kong protest.

To celebrate the holidays and Durham Talent, Purple Radio have teamed up with Neville’s Cross  Primary School to create a short Christmas album. We hope these 5 classics (Santa Claus is Coming to Town, Away in a Manger, Jingle Bells, Silent Night and Merry Christmas Everyone), and the amazing vocals provided by local school kids will get you in the festive spirit!  

Huge thanks for Alex, Millie, Evie and Bell, Emily Lawson, George Bone and Collingwood Tech Society.

Chambers, Hobbs and Waddelove leave you with a Christmas present. One more episode of Three Reds Kumar to wrap up 2019.

And what a show it was.

In homage to ICC umpire Kumar Dharmasena, the inspiration for the name of our podcast, Chambers talks us through a dance-move that he and his house have come up with - the 'Dharmasena' - coming to a Durham nightclub in 2020.

Hobbs gives us in-depth analysis from Durham University Inter-Collegiate Christian Union Carol Service (yes we agree, they need to work on the name), as well as defending his decision to walk around with Durham University Rugby Club branded backpack (oh dear).

And we always thought Waddelove was old-fashioned, confirmed by his #1 most listened to song on Spotify for 2019 being released in 2014... he also tries (and fails) to find evidence that our '2019 Wrapped' says a lot about us, our relationships and changes in our music tastes through the year. 

In other news, Chambers digs himself into a hole and then an even bigger hole when quizzed why he hasn't bought his train tickets home for Christmas and Waddelove talks about how many calories he will consume on Christmas Day (do we care?).

Oh and a what a year it has been for cricket.

But amongst the chaos, Hobbs does himself proud in the dying seconds: '2019 - thank you to Bob Willis'

We echo those words to an England cricketing legend.

Rest In Peace: Bob Willis (1940-2019)
