On the Wednesday edition of the EPL Talk Podcast we were proud to welcome David Goldblatt, renowned for his work on The Ball is Round (uk, us), possibly the definitive book chronicling the history of football. David is also regularly featured at Prospect Magazine, where he has recently written pieces on the legacy of the 2010 African Cup of Nations and the criticisms of South Africa in the build-up to the World Cup. We talk about those things as well as England 2018 World Cup bid and the emerging corporate culture in the Premier League.

Don’t forget that the EPL Talk Podcast is the only Premier League interview and analysis podcast available for free. In the past few weeks, we’ve interviewed legends of the game such as Steve McManaman, Efan Ekoku, Martin Chivers, and Robbie Earle as well as experts such as Declan Hill, Simon Kuper, Misha Sher, Matt Dickinson, Andy Brassell, Tim Vickery and many others. Why pay $40 a year to rival podcasts when you can subscribe to the EPL Talk Podcast for FREE featuring interviews with the biggest names in football?
