Who?

Ollie Scott, Junior Eldstål, Ian McKenzie and David Cotterill

What/Why?

We sit down with ex Wales International Premier League footballer David Cotterill. This episode is very football focussed as we discuss David's high and lows as a footballer.

At the age of 18, David Cotterill signed for then Premier League side Wigan Athletic on Transfer Deadline Day in 2006 for £2 Million Pounds. David had already played an amazing 62 times for Bristol City prior to his move to Wigan. Later on in his career, there were suggestions from one manager in particular that David may have got too much too soon.

Last year David announced his retirement from professional football at the age of 30, he has also been very vocal about his battles with mental health and is doing his part to reduce the stigma surrounding it.

Ollie Scott, Junior Eldstål, Ian McKenzie and Annalie Howling

What/Why?

In this episode, The Dog Days meets Executive coach, charity ambassador and founder of productivity and performance consultancy Kinzie Global.

Annalie talks to us about mental health in the workplace, how Kinzie is on a mission to improve your productivity and, occasionally, save lives. We also had a chance to ask Annalie about relationships so we as three single guys, may have more luck finding a girlfriend!

We were also set some homework (a Dog Days first!): To watch Daniel Sloss’ ‘Jigsaw’ comedy set.

If you’re interested in watching that too, we’d implore you to do so (watch Jigsaw not Dark: https://www.netflix.com/gb/title/80223685 )

This was one of our favourite episodes so far as we had a really good chance to ask the relationship questions we’ve been dying to know the answers to. Annalie was a joy to host and we really hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did!
