In this episode of Rig Biz, Archie Curzon keeps things simple with a one-to-one chat - relaxed, unfiltered, and easygoing. It’s a bit of a step away from the usual format, with Archie letting the conversation flow naturally, touching on a mix of rugby, day-to-day life, and whatever else comes to mind.

Silly season meets Ashes season in this chaos-fuelled episode of the Rigbiz Podcast as Archie and Freddie are joined by double Ashes winner, T20 World Cup winner and Yorkshire legend Tim Bresnan. Before Bresnan dials in, the boys warm up with peak Rigbiz nonsense – Ivy Asia lunches, how to weaponise a client Christmas do into a surprise deal, bulking season gym chat and prep for the infamous Feathers Ball. It is pure December city energy: prawn toast, pool on the roof, fake Thai, real bids and a lot of lash.

When Bresnan arrives, the cricket chat is anything but straight bat. He takes us inside that brutal pre Ashes Germany boot camp, the Hong Kong Sixes stag do in disguise, life in a dressing room where half the team barely tolerated each other and Kevin Pietersen was writing books about it for years afterwards. There is sledging on and off the field, Monty on Mastermind, Gary Ballance as the super sopper on a night out, Chris Tremlett’s terrifying rig, Ben Stokes as the man you always want next to you in Tony Boller and some brutally honest views on Bazball, pundits and whether England can actually turn an Ashes series around.

Off the field, we get Bresnan the crypto CEO, Gibraltar lads trips disguised as “business”, Bitcoin breakfasts and FCA regulated chaos as Archie tries to wedge his way into the fund with city chat and bone crusher handshakes. It is part cricket nostalgia, part city boy survival guide, part financial nonsense, all wrapped up in heavy Northern energy and relentless Rigbiz silliness. If you like your pods full of lash, live sport scars and just about legally acceptable client chat, this one is an absolute gift.

Today we're joined by TV royalty in Jason Fox to hear about some crazy memories from his days in the Special Forces, a near fatal Bear attack, why he's moved to Clapham and much more....

The Rig Biz podcast returns with an electric deep dive into a blockbuster weekend of rugby, joined this time by a special guest: former England fly-half and elite coach Alex King. Archie and the team waste no time throwing King into the thick of it, unpacking England’s long-awaited victory, the rise of young star Pollock, and the surprisingly charismatic new era under Steve Borthwick. With insider clarity and a healthy dose of irreverence, King explains how England have rediscovered identity, cohesion, and belief—while also revealing what really matters behind the scenes: squad spirit, smart coaching voices, and the underestimated power of a good off-field crack.

From there, the episode barrels into a globe-spanning journey through King’s playing and coaching life. He reflects candidly on his time with Wales, the pressure of public scrutiny, and the fragile psychology of a team desperate for a win. He shares raw memories from the infamous 1998 “hell tour,” tales from Claremont’s rugby-mad heartland, and colourful portraits of legends like Jonny Wilkinson, Sean Edwards, Martin Johnson, and Lawrence Dallaglio. The conversation veers between insight and chaos—whether it’s snogging analogies, stories of shaved heads on debut, or nights out that could only happen in the pre-camera-phone era.

As the episode winds down, King opens up about stepping away from professional coaching after decades in the game, finding a new path in high-performance sportswear, and rediscovering family life after years of constant relocation. The chat finishes with a rapid-fire “chat or no chat” assessment of King’s former teammates—equal parts affectionate and brutally honest. It’s a sprawling, hilarious, and revealing conversation that captures everything Rig Biz does best: big personalities, bigger stories, and a proper session’s worth of rugby gold.

Today we're joined by an influencer extraordinaire in Ex Strictly Come Dancing / Love Island & Hollyoaks star turned boxer Curtis Pritchard to pick apart his fascinating and at times ridiculous career. From getting beaten up with his brother on a night out, to Boxing for KSI's company, to failed dating shows, a viral nightmare acting cameo on Hollyoaks and much more ridiculousness.....

The Rig Biz Podcast is back, and Archie Curzon is more emotional than ever as the boys welcome Scottish rugby and Lions legend Kenny Logan to the clubhouse. From scoring tries at Murrayfield to dancing his way through Strictly Come Dancing and raising millions for charity, Kenny brings his trademark charm and a treasure trove of stories to this week’s show. Expect banter about rugby glory days, Strictly heartbreaks, and whether Archie might just become the Logans’ next adopted son.

As always, there’s chaos in the clubhouse — from estate agent prank calls and outrageous listener confessions to talk of Clapham nights out and the state of modern rugby. Kenny opens up about the golden Wasps era, wild nights with Shawsy and Dallaglio, and his hopes for Scotland ahead of a massive Autumn Nations series. Strap in for another unfiltered, hilarious, and heartfelt episode with two of rugby’s great characters doing what they do best: talking absolute nonsense with a touch of wisdom.

England rugby legend Olly Barkley joins The Rig Biz Podcast this week for a no-holds-barred conversation packed with nostalgia, chaos and heart. From his early debut for England — before even playing for Bath — to wild nights out, controversial moments, and life lessons learned in the brutal world of professional rugby, Barkley opens up like never before. Expect big laughs, surprising revelations and a look back at a career that defined an era.

The boys kick off with their trademark banter — Archie’s “greatest fly-half in the world” claims, Fred’s reality checks, and a heartfelt discussion about the devastating news surrounding Lewis Moody’s MND diagnosis. It’s a reminder that the rugby community is more than just competition and camaraderie — it’s a family that rallies in hard times. Olly shares moving reflections on playing alongside Moody and the strength of players supporting each other through life’s toughest challenges.

Then it’s back to Barkley’s glory days — the infamous pitch-invading incident, his surreal England debut as a teenager, and that first strip club visit with Simon Shaw. From Bath to Gloucester, England to France, he relives the highs and lows with honesty and humour. There’s talk of French baguettes before training, CS gas in a car park, and the pressures of playing in Johnny Wilkinson’s shadow. This is the inside story of the wild, golden age of rugby — told by one of its most stylish 10s.

Candid, funny and unfiltered, this episode delivers everything you love about The Rigby’s Podcast: banter, big names and brutally honest chat. Whether you’re a die-hard rugby fan or just here for the chaos, tune in for Olly Barkley’s untold stories, career confessions and plenty of laughs along the way.
