Friday Sports Kick Off with Andy Hodgson

About Friday Sports Kick Off with Andy Hodgson

Friday Sports Kick Off is the only show on radio that brings together sports stars, pundits, journalists and opinionated tradespeople to preview the weekend’s sporting fixtures, debate the biggest questions in sport and generally spout nonsense. The podcast is packed with interviews and opinions on everything from the worthiness of VAR, England’s chances in cricket and who’s going to win the latest heavyweight bout. If it’s a sport that’s popular with tradespeople and on this weekend, Friday Sports Kick Off with Andy Hodgson will cover it. Expect banter, big interviews, tenuous connections to building, bad jokes and arguments about sport.
