About this listen

'I want absolutely nothing to do with this book.' – Owen Farrell

THREE RUGBY MEGASTARS.

ONE EPIC BOOK.

Welcome to the wild world of The Good, The Bad & The Rugby.

They say what goes on tour stays on tour…but not this time.

Dive headfirst into the banter, bruises and brilliance of rugby with the team behind The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast. Packed with shenanigans, laugh-out-loud stories and a little chaos, this book offered a behind-the-scenes pass to the lives, laughs and legendary matches of three rugby megastars – on and off the pitch.

'There's rugby, laughter and, of course, more of me' – JAMES HASKELL

'The lawyers are once again on standby' – ALEX PAYNE

'I have no idea how this book deal was signed, but in the spirit of GBR -"Once in, all in"' – MIKE TINDALL

Among the key questions answered are:

  • What happened when Mike took their shambles of a podcast inside the walls of Windsor Castle to meet the Prince and Princess of Wales and the Princess Royal?
  • How did James end up nearly killing himself on the way to the DJ set, find himself forced to save Payno from Tins and get confronted by irate fan?
  • Why did Alex's broadcasting career sink to such depressing depths? And will it ever recover? (Spoiler alert – it won't.)

In this epically no-holds-barred book, all three of them go behind the scenes of the hugely successful podcast, pulling back the curtain to reveal their most outrageous antics on tour – the ups, the downs and the sideways – and leaving no story untold.

All is unleashed.

I listen to GBR most weeks, excellent combination, glad the audio book wasn't just a rehash of the pod. Great to hear behind the scenes stuff as well as the great stories!

Great stuff, keep up the good work!

Honesty and self belief

Open and honest. We sometimes forget that, at the end of the day, these are ordinary people who have been fortunate enough to have gained some great (and not so great) experiences and are happy to pass them along to us for our entertainment!

Interesting to hear the truth behind the headlines.
