Different Gravy - Not just another Sheffield Wednesday podcast

Dr Luke Gleadall and Richard Millarwww.differentgravypod.co.uk
An occasional podcast from two obsessive Sheffield Wednesday fans, we felt the world needed another couple of cisgender white guys sharing their opinion - so you are welcome. We’ll discuss news and performances and meander into other bits and bobs that we find interesting. There will be themed episodes and hopefully we’ll all have fun and find that the real podcast, was the podcast, that we podcasted along the way.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Episodes

If Dean Windass Smells a Fart in a Box in the Woods...

The third and final part of this season's review. We name our player of the season - which lucky player will take home the auspicious gravy filled trophy of dreams? We talk Danny Rohl, a bit of Chansiri and take an ominous wander through 'the future'. WAWAW. [email protected] https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast.

Who Brings The Nasty, and Who Brings The Pasty

Part 2 of our season review for 2024/25. As we scroll into the last half of players, we get to some real DILFs and, knowing Wednesday's retirement home for players, probably some GILFs too! The elder statesmen are all up for judgement, for some it will be the last time. Expect some silly old men getting weepy and wistful at the end of this era! WAWAW.

You Touched the Hot Cakes and Now You're Going to Get Burned

We're back again with the first episode of our bumper three part review of the season! Somehow we get all Bake Off on us all (or are Luke and Rich now the Soggy Bottom Boys?) in this first stint of player reviews. As time and this season weighs on us all, we take the approach of going through the players from young to old, so look forward to more homoeroticism from us two creepy old geezers. Enjoy! WAWAW.

We Gegens For It/The Numbers are Good…

Happy New Year, folks! What better way to kick off 2025 than to remind ourselves of what came before?! So Luke and Rich get into the remaining players and then finally cover Danny Rohl in part 2 of the 24/25 Player Reviews. Apologies for the elaborate AI that Rich set in place to somehow picked all the good players in the first episode and all the lesser ones are mostly covered in this episode. Happy New Year! Up the Owls! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information....

Do the helicopter, get in the helicopter, and do the helicopter again

And we are back again in this taint between Christmas and New Year! Join Luke and Rich as they are bloated confused masses of chocolate and cheese trying to get their heads around this season so far for Wednesday with their usual half-season player reviews. Who do we wish would reawaken as the opponent goal-shagging behemoth of yesteryear? Which other player "has scored goals relative to his peers"? And who is reinventing the language of the WWE with a Reverse Heel Turn? Well, listen ahead to fi...

Everyone Likes Us, We Don't Care

We plot our path to becoming the anti-Millwall in the second part of our season preview. There's a tense and fun game of attempting to read Barry Bannan's mind and pre-empt his favourite Wednesday XI. We then get on to the upcoming season - where do we see Wednesday finishing? Who will the player of the season be and who will take home the Wednesday specific golden boot as top scorer? What do you think? let us know on @gravypod or [email protected] Hosted on Acast.

Massive Lad Energy/Toddler After Smarties Energy

The Gravy Boys are back for Season 6 (Blimey)! In this debut episode for 2024/25 season, Rich briefly covers the Liam Palmer testimonial and poises Luke with some questions about which Wednesday member of 5ive is the dishiest. Once we have got the usual Diffierent Gravy slathering of homoeroticism out of the way, then the Boys cover the re-signings, exits, and new signings. A weird smorgasbord of signings to cover, but the Boys manage to get through. We have you have all had a good Paxo Summer/R...

I'm drinking the Röhl-ade

And here is part deux of the Season Re-Phew! We conclude our player reviews by reviewing Mr. Trumpybum (Josh Windass) to finishing on Marvelous Marvin Johnson. Then we get onto Herr Röhl, the chief man of resurging both Wednesday and Boney M. Then the detritus at the end covers a quick re-phew of our foolish end of season predictions and think about which of the swathes of out of contract players are to be kept in our humble opinions. Expect references to the Josh Windass Experience, your new le...

Vorsprung Durch Chuffnik

We missed the gag about this in the show, but here is our full re- phew (geddit) of Sheffield Wednesday's 2023/24 season complete with the usual schoolboy rating scheme and potentially too much time thinking about these set of players! In this first of the two part extravaganza, the Gravy Boys snake their way through the squad list getting a full score of Owls starting at Master Dawson and resting on Wee Barry Bannan. Expect a litany of middle names (real and fictional) as though we are very dis...

I've run the numbers, and they don't like it up 'em

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the (podcast) water, here's an unexpected delivery from Different Gravy. A run-in check-in and a real chance to catch up on all that's happened since Danny Röhl's appointment. We look back at the transfer window dealings, recent form, take a look at the wunderbar wunderkind himself, before making some sloppy predictions for the matches between here and the end of the season.

Just Ham, White Bread, No Mustard

Happy New Year folks! Here's part two of our Mid-Season Review - we cover the juicy last 10 players and run the rule of Rohl and his predecessor.

Fruity Squares

For Sheffield Wednesday this season (2023/24) has been one of contrast, the abysmal first 10 matches or so under grumpy, charlatan Xisco Munoz and the markedly better run since under German coaching whizz Danny Rohl. The players have had similar swings, some asked to do unfamiliar or uncomfortable jobs under Xisco then recast or recalled under Rohl's regime. To pick it all apart and gain some perspective please join us for part one of or Mid-Season Review, in which we run the rule over just over...

The Different Gravy Double Down

A timely canning of Xisco and our shiny new manager has brought the Gravy Boys out of their slumber. The title refers to the, subjective opinion here, awful KFC sandwich, or as Rich pus it a "nice sandwich in pooey bread". "Pooey bread" slice one gets into how embarrassed we were to even feel remotely optimistic about Xisco Munoz's reign and the false dawn of last time we broke Wednesday bread. And as a result the second end slice of poop loaf gets into the disappointing set of players who have ...

State Of Owls Nation

Goodbye the 2022/2023 season - "you were a real one!" Hello the 2023/2024 season - "what's that smell? could you check your shoes please, I don't want that tramped all through the house, I'm not accusing you but it didn't smell like that before you arrived." etc Due to our questionable judgement we decided to sit down on the transfer window equivalent of Boxing Day and exhaustively talk through all the major events of a very busy summer. We love a gimmick so the idea was to rate everything on a ...

Bucket Hats Have Had a Revival

Part two of our Player Reviews effectively puts the amazing 2022/23 season to bed with a *spoiler alert* tear strewn finale. An exhausting, thrilling, terrible and wonderful season - typical Wednesday, as they say. Listen past the outro song for a little bonus treat. We also run our (latent) fashionista eyes over the new kit and sponsor. WAWAW, UTO, and thanks for listening!

Well the wait is finally over because we are proud to present our exhaustive end of season player reviews. Spread across a generous two episodes and continuing our Countdown inspired 'one from the top, one from the bottom' squad order, we talk about the first 14 players here and the remaining squad members and the all important big boss man Darren Moore at the end of next week's episode.

Wee Man for the Big Occasion

Hey You Guys! We are back with the final B.O.O.B.S. session for this 2022/23 season as we review the League One Play Off Final against Barnsley. Join us to hopefully find an undercurrent of success and joy running beneath reviewing a mildly dour big game that nevertheless ends in beautiful breathtaking triumph. This episode has got it all... perm helmets, corrupt American senators, RDA of humour, Rich's niche RawArse rating, Asterix the Gaul, Luke doesn't know how to pronounce marathon etc. Next...

Jaden Smith, Kylie Jenner, Matt Healy, Zoe Kravitz...

And with what we felt would be the last episode of the B.O.O.B.S. Sessions (“The Last Crusty Cop A Feel?”), the mighty Sheffield Wednesday pull off the greatest comeback in playoff football history. Join us for an episode so lengthy that we almost considered doing a live watch back. In it we once again go back to our in-depth analysis to capture all of the delight and elation of the Masterclass put on by Darren Moore’s Sheffield Wednesday. Expect talk of Mechs, Steve Bruce reparations, and more ...

A Lot More Smudgeface To Come

The Different Gravy: The B.O.O.B.S (Back On Our Bull S***) Sessions continue, sadly. This was a rough one, as rough as they come. We try and remember how we used to do these match reviews and just about hold back the tears as we discuss the Play Off Semi Final leg one. There's some room thankfully for the odd fun digression Callum Paterson as hard bitten noir detective, Michael Smith exposed as the Greggs loving fiend that he is, the usual talk about willies.

A Spoonful Weighs A Ton

Welcome to "Different Gravy: The B.O.O.B.S (Back On Our Bull S***) Sessions"! The first episode back after the boys gave a murky halftime season review for the 22/23 season sees Luke and Rich give a slightly more optimistic, or less urine soaked chips, viewpoint on the end of the regular season. Recorded with Rich finding the least sweaty place he could park following a rare victory over Derby (expect sound effects of police, ambulances, and birds (Song of the South Stand, anyone?)), we get into...

29 Minutes in Heaven

Join us in embarking on 2023 with our final look at the squad at the halfway point of the 2022/23 season. In Part Deux, we begin with Dennis Adeniran and then finish off with Akin Famewo before ending up debating Mr. Moore's pros and cons. If that sounds underwhelming, then don't worry, there is plenty of meat to get into. On the way we get into Cockney Corporals, prodigal wunderkids supping Hooch by the bike sheds, and Luke nearly makes himself cry from depressing himself. Happy New Year! WAWAW...

Luke and Rich are back... with disappointing results! Listen as we review the SWFC squad for the first half of the 22/23 season just before mid-season eve (playing Fleetwood). In this first of two new episodes, we take a snake-like approach winding their way through the squad numbers starting at one "Mr. Wednesday" Liam Palmer to another "kinda Mr. Wednesday" in Cammy Dawson. Listen and find out why Alan Michael Sugar Trading has nothing to worry about from Rich, Moore is tyre-kicking donkeys at...
