In life, things evolve. That includes the EPL Talk Podcast which has transformed from its launch in 2006 as an interview show to it’s current format which is a mixture of expert analysis on the Premier League and a bonus of an occasional interview now and again. Over the years, we’ve conducted interviews with some of the biggest names in the sport such as Paul Scholes, Andy Cole, Dwight Yorke, Steve McClaren and over 100 others. But we’ve found a podcast which has secured interviews with names that are just as big. And we’d like to turn you on to it.

The Beyond The Pitch Podcast, hosted by Phil and Anthony, is an interview show that brings you some of the biggest names from the Beautiful Game. For example, just this week, they featured exclusive interviews with Chelsea’s Michael Essien and commentator Clive Tyldesley. The interview with Essien was to celebrate him being nominated peace ambassador 2010 by the African union and to talk about his foundation. Tyldesley, meanwhile, discussed his career as a football commentator and shared some of his favorite stories about Brian Clough.

And later this week, Beyond The Pitch will debut exclusive interviews with Rio Ferdinand and Jozy Altidore. And previous interviews have featured Sid Lowe, Ray Hudson, Gabriel Marcotti, Paul Merson, Lee Sharpe and many others.
