Rule The Roost - A Tottenham Hotspur Podcast

Welcome to Rule the Roost Podcast – where Tottenham Hotspur takes centre stage in a symphony of quasi-intellectual musings and self-depreciating humour.

Every Monday, our podcast offers a cerebral feast as we welcome a fresh guest each episode, each bringing their unique perspective to the table. As we delve into the depths of Spurs' legacy, triumphs, and challenges.

And that's just half the story – on the full time whistle, after every match, stay tuned for our post-match reactive pods, where host Jack takes you on an introspective solo journey. Unfiltered and unscripted, his stream of consciousness captures the rollercoaster of emotions that every Spurs fan will know only too well.

Omnipotent Oligarch

After apologising for missing the Cardiff game and briefly revelling in yet another victory and clean sheet, we got back on our bike and took a lengthy look forward to Chelsea at home. Joined by loyal Chelsea season ticket holder Joe, host's Jack and Raj explored and debated the morals of being owned by such a shady character and the successes that come with it, the mystery of Lukaku and Mata, Andre Villas-Boas and the second coming of Mourinho.

The Magnificent Seven?

With the transfer window blissfully closed and international football causing an unwelcome break in premier league action, host Jack and editor Raj, alongside SpursStatMan's own 'Head Of Opposition Scouting' Rob Brown, took the opportunity to have a closer look at our own club. A frighteningly busy window has caused not only concerns over our ability to adapt and gel going forwards, but also the suitability of our current tactical outlook.

North London Is Ours

With the first North London Derby of the season fast approaching, host Jack and editor Raj strayed in to enemy territory and invited on two prominent Arsenal fans to discuss the game ahead.

The Brazilian Frank Lampard...Apparently

Episode three of the podcast and we've done away with discussing individual football clubs, and have instead had an in-depth scout in to the history of Tottenham Hotspur's various forays in to the Brazilian game and market. Alongside this weeks guest and self-confessed Brazilophile Jack Lang of SnapKakaPop, Guardian, ESPN, When Saturday Comes (to name but a few) fame, show host Jack and site editor Raj were taught why Paulinho is going to be one of the best midfielders in the world, and why nobo...

"What Does AVB Smell Like?"

Episode two of the podcast and we're already branching out slightly. Rather than scouting the opposition, we're asking questions about the inner-workings of our own club to Roberto Kussabi the former Head Of Social Media at Tottenham.
