The new comedy podcast Socially Distant Sports Bar is the brainchild of comedians Mike Bubbins, Elis James and Steff Garrero.

Off The Ball's Ciaran Bradley chats with the lads about the intricacies of sport, with all the mental, funny stuff that comes with it.

We look at their love for all kinds of sports, Wales and the Celtic links to Ireland; why sport is important in its essence and how its absence has affected so many.

A Swansea City fan, Elis works on radio in the UK with Radio 5 Live, Radio X as well as running the pod with the lads. Steff is Senior Lecturer in Sports Media at Cardiff Metropolitan University, after a long career in sports journalism with BBC Radio Wales. Mike is a pan-cultural phenomena, whose knowledge of rugby is matched only by his notoriety in Barry Island and the suburbs of Cardiff.

Let us know what you think below, as we look at subjects as wide-ranging as Hibernian's 'Sunshine on Leith', the beauties of the Fishguard to Rosslare ferry crossing and Mike's stories from years as a stand-up comic and erstwhile PE teacher! Oh, and pints in O'Donoghues and David O'Doherty's cycling shorts.
