NO ENCORE

TOP 5 PERSONAL FOOTBALL SONGS ft. Carl Kinsella

Ep. 414

NO ENCORE smashes it straight into the top corner this week by handing the coveted co-host debut cap to Fernando Torres enthusiast Carl Kinsella


You may know Carl from his former work at JOE, or his current 'Surrealing in the Years' column at The Journal. You may know him from Twitter. You may simply know him as a friend. 


In any case, former colleague Dave Hanratty and new friend Sonic Architect Adam are delighted to bring Carl off the training pitch and into your hearts for a proper football special in honour of EURO 2024 kicking off.


On this episode, Carl navigates a timeline of his personal relationship with the beautiful game and music itself, as he details the songs that we may not necessarily associate with football, yet have nonetheless made a lasting tactical impact on his life.


Don't forget, you can get this and every new NO ENCORE episode 24 hours early and ad-free, AND additional bonus audio content by signing up to Patreon.com/NOENCORE.


ACT ONE (8:56): A busy news round-up takes in casting rumours for the Beatles movies, Kate Hudson's bid for rock biopic glory, Kneecap-related controversy, Ray J getting strangely philosophical, Ed Sheeran's big statement, and a stark warning from Daniel O'Donnell. 


ACT TWO (56:10): Top 5 Personal Football Songs
