    Fruitful and amazing
    This is really amazing page turner podcast which is amalgam of football and english, so not only you would learn how you could use phrases and idiomatic expression but you would also reap the benefit of listening the native speakers. If i were to choose ten podcast which has fascinate me a lot , i would definitely select this one.
