If a sports documentary is played in the forest, does anyone watch it? That's irrelevant, but irrelevance is what The Part Time Sport podcast by Cal Monaghan and Dylan Thomas is all about. Join us as we trawl the globe for the best sport documentaries, teasing out a narrative (and we mean any narrative) that makes that watch worth your eyes.
