The Socially Distant Sports Bar is a comedy podcast hosted by Elis James (Elis James & John Robins on BBC Radio 5 Live) and Mike Bubbins (Mammoth), alongside producer Steff Garrero — offering a funny, curious take on sport, culture and the stories that surround them.


This week, it’s a FIFA World Cup Special — a deep dive into the moments, players and chaos that make the tournament what it is.


Yes, we’ve gone for a slightly SEO‑friendly title — which is why this description also includes names like Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Diego Maradona, Pelé, Zinedine Zidane, Kylian Mbappé and terms like World Cup goals, World Cup highlights, greatest World Cup moments… but once you’re in, it’s the usual mix of niche clips, big stories and sideways conversations about whether Mike could be a 13th Century entertainer...
