Distant Pod is a weekly podcast where Elis James, Mike Bubbins, and Steff Garrero dig through the best (and worst) clips, documentaries, books, and sporting moments they’ve found that week. From genuine sporting greatness to complete nonsense — no expertise required, strong opinions guaranteed.

Steff is running the Tokyo Marathon on March 1st to sponsor him as he raises money for Orchid Cancer please click here https://www.justgiving.com/page/the-socially-distant-sports-bar-podcast-5

Mike recommends Netflix’s The Seat — a gripping sports documentary exploring the highest level of motorsport, offering rare insight into Formula 1 and the pressures behind the scenes.

Elis follows with Miguel Delaney’s States of Play, a must-read for anyone interested in football governance, ownership models, regulation, and the future of the game
