Different Gravy - Not just another Sheffield Wednesday podcast
Hosted by Dr Luke Gleadall and Richard Millar
An occasional podcast from two obsessive Sheffield Wednesday fans, we felt the world needed another couple of cisgender white guys sharing their opinion - so you are welcome. We’ll discuss news and performances and meander into other bits and bobs that we find interesting. There will be themed episodes and hopefully we’ll all have fun and find that the real podcast, was the podcast, that we podcasted along the way. Hosted on Acast.

- Knightmare Skeleton Life BarMay 13, 2026 · 1 hr 51 minAnd with the takeover complete, the Gravy Boys awaken from their podcasting slumber! Fittingly enough, Luke is in USA (USA USA) at the time of recording and the boys are ready to ping their podcasting hammies over the season that was. We give a toodle pip to Chansiri, talk about THAT day felt in person and the other side of the pond, and briefly talk about out of contract players. A discordant tumble of an episode probably accurately reflecting a downright bizarre season. Gee dee la di da. And of course, UTO. Lots of love, Luke and Rich. Hosted on Acast.

- Wooden YoyoNov 2, 2025 · 1 hr 2 minThe recent announcement of SWFC entering administration has awakened the Gravy Boys from their podcasting hibernation. Join Luke and Rich on a meander through emotions and thoughts surrounding the whole ordeal of supporting Wednesday so far this 25/26 season with stops through the reign of Chansiri and memories of Milan Manderic and his era. Here's hoping Wednesday get all quackers quacking in the future as she is, and we can all agree here, a real GILF. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Bag Fumbler ExtraordinaireAug 16, 2025 · 1 hr 33 minWe are back for a late season preview/natter about all of the nonsense at Sheffield Wednesday Football Club. We are so bereft that we even dream of bringing in AI to get the conversation started and then decide we don't need no stinking Skynet and kick off the training wheels for an all terrain journey of disappointment. Truly an episode full of a similar quality to the club's health at the moment. Thanks for listening and please accept Luke's little love letter at the end as an apology. WAWAW Hosted on Acast.

- If Dean Windass Smells a Fart in a Box in the Woods...May 10, 2025 · 1 hr 4 minThe third and final part of this season's review. We name our player of the season - which lucky player will take home the auspicious gravy filled trophy of dreams? We talk Danny Rohl, a bit of Chansiri and take an ominous wander through 'the future'. WAWAW. differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast.

- Who Brings The Nasty, and Who Brings The PastyMay 7, 2025 · 1 hr 25 minPart 2 of our season review for 2024/25. As we scroll into the last half of players, we get to some real DILFs and, knowing Wednesday's retirement home for players, probably some GILFs too! The elder statesmen are all up for judgement, for some it will be the last time. Expect some silly old men getting weepy and wistful at the end of this era!

- You Touched the Hot Cakes and Now You're Going to Get BurnedMay 5, 2025 · 1 hr 6 minWe're back again with the first episode of our bumper three part review of the season! Somehow we get all Bake Off on us all (or are Luke and Rich now the Soggy Bottom Boys?) in this first stint of player reviews. As time and this season weighs on us all, we take the approach of going through the players from young to old, so look forward to more homoeroticism from us two creepy old geezers. Enjoy!

- We Gegens For It/The Numbers are Good…Jan 1, 2025 · 1 hr 12 minHappy New Year, folks! What better way to kick off 2025 than to remind ourselves of what came before?! So Luke and Rich get into the remaining players and then finally cover Danny Rohl in part 2 of the 24/25 Player Reviews. Apologies for the elaborate AI that Rich set in place to somehow picked all the good players in the first episode and all the lesser ones are mostly covered in this episode. Happy New Year! Up the Owls! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Do the helicopter, get in the helicopter, and do the helicopter againDec 29, 2024 · 1 hr 26 minAnd we are back again in this taint between Christmas and New Year! Join Luke and Rich as they are bloated confused masses of chocolate and cheese trying to get their heads around this season so far for Wednesday with their usual half-season player reviews. Who do we wish would reawaken as the opponent goal-shagging behemoth of yesteryear? Which other player "has scored goals relative to his peers"? And who is reinventing the language of the WWE with a Reverse Heel Turn? Well, listen ahead to find out all this and more! A Happy Festive Period to all of our listeners, thank you for still listening to our ageing irrelevant brains try to analyse SWFC. Lots of love and expect the next episode out in 2025! P.S. Forgive some weird noises at the beginning, it manages to sort itself out after the first twenty seconds. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Everyone Likes Us, We Don't CareAug 10, 2024 · 1 hr 10 minWe plot our path to becoming the anti-Millwall in the second part of our season preview. There's a tense and fun game of attempting to read Barry Bannan's mind and pre-empt his favourite Wednesday XI. We then get on to the upcoming season - where do we see Wednesday finishing? Who will the player of the season be and who will take home the Wednesday specific golden boot as top scorer? What do you think? let us know on @gravypod or differentgravypod@gmail.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Massive Lad Energy/Toddler After Smarties EnergyAug 4, 2024 · 1 hr 27 minThe Gravy Boys are back for Season 6 (Blimey)! In this debut episode for 2024/25 season, Rich briefly covers the Liam Palmer testimonial and poises Luke with some questions about which Wednesday member of 5ive is the dishiest. Once we have got the usual Diffierent Gravy slathering of homoeroticism out of the way, then the Boys cover the re-signings, exits, and new signings. A weird smorgasbord of signings to cover, but the Boys manage to get through. We have you have all had a good Paxo Summer/Rohly Summer/Brat Summer/Donna Summer and are looking forward to this season to get started!

- I'm drinking the Röhl-adeMay 11, 2024 · 1 hr 43 minAnd here is part deux of the Season Re-Phew! We conclude our player reviews by reviewing Mr. Trumpybum (Josh Windass) to finishing on Marvelous Marvin Johnson. Then we get onto Herr Röhl, the chief man of resurging both Wednesday and Boney M. Then the detritus at the end covers a quick re-phew of our foolish end of season predictions and think about which of the swathes of out of contract players are to be kept in our humble opinions. Expect references to the Josh Windass Experience, your new least favourite shops-own Frosties knock off, and some CanCon (that's Canadian content, folks). Thanks for listening and we will see you soon to chat about more Wednesday in the Championship next season! WAWAW. differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast.

- Vorsprung Durch ChuffnikMay 6, 2024 · 1 hr 33 minWe missed the gag about this in the show, but here is our full re- phew (geddit) of Sheffield Wednesday's 2023/24 season complete with the usual schoolboy rating scheme and potentially too much time thinking about these set of players! In this first of the two part extravaganza, the Gravy Boys snake their way through the squad list getting a full score of Owls starting at Master Dawson and resting on Wee Barry Bannan. Expect a litany of middle names (real and fictional) as though we are very disappointed in their actions and some stars as the players vye for Luke Gleadall's "Reyt Player of the Season" award.

- I've run the numbers, and they don't like it up 'emMar 31, 2024 · 1 hr 29 minJust when you thought it was safe to go back in the (podcast) water, here's an unexpected delivery from Different Gravy. A run-in check-in and a real chance to catch up on all that's happened since Danny Röhl's appointment. We look back at the transfer window dealings, recent form, take a look at the wunderbar wunderkind himself, before making some sloppy predictions for the matches between here and the end of the season. differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Just Ham, White Bread, No MustardJan 1, 2024 · 1 hr 2 minHappy New Year folks! Here's part two of our Mid-Season Review - we cover the juicy last 10 players and run the rule of Rohl and his predecessor. PS There's even more silly after the theme at the end. differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Fruity SquaresDec 31, 2023 · 1 hr 22 minFor Sheffield Wednesday this season (2023/24) has been one of contrast, the abysmal first 10 matches or so under grumpy, charlatan Xisco Munoz and the markedly better run since under German coaching whizz Danny Rohl. The players have had similar swings, some asked to do unfamiliar or uncomfortable jobs under Xisco then recast or recalled under Rohl's regime. To pick it all apart and gain some perspective please join us for part one of or Mid-Season Review, in which we run the rule over just over the half the players who have contributed this season and assign them school style grades (which schools don't use anymore). Part way through the episode we hit on a Meal Deal based grading system too, if that sounds like your sort of thing then please join us! PS Hang around at the end for something silly. differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- The Different Gravy Double DownOct 14, 2023 · 1 hr 45 minA timely canning of Xisco and our shiny new manager has brought the Gravy Boys out of their slumber. The title refers to the, subjective opinion here, awful KFC sandwich, or as Rich pus it a "nice sandwich in pooey bread". "Pooey bread" slice one gets into how embarrassed we were to even feel remotely optimistic about Xisco Munoz's reign and the false dawn of last time we broke Wednesday bread. And as a result the second end slice of poop loaf gets into the disappointing set of players who have helped give Wednesday the worst start to their football league campaign ever. But don't worry, there is some goodness in the meat and we can recall how to get giddy and overexcited as we welcome the striking and enigmatic Deutsche video analyst upstart, Danny Röhl, to the Wednesday manager position. Do Luke and Rich get into a series of dire stereotypical German impressions? Ja. Do we get carried away fantasizing about Röhl getting the club out on the Autobahn and whipping her into fifth?

- State Of Owls NationSep 3, 2023 · 2 hrGoodbye the 2022/2023 season - "you were a real one!" Hello the 2023/2024 season - "what's that smell? could you check your shoes please, I don't want that tramped all through the house, I'm not accusing you but it didn't smell like that before you arrived." etc Due to our questionable judgement we decided to sit down on the transfer window equivalent of Boxing Day and exhaustively talk through all the major events of a very busy summer. We love a gimmick so the idea was to rate everything on a 'Whelomoter' 5 point scale of Totally Underwhelmed (1) - Partly/Slightly Under Whelmed (2) - Whelmed (3) - Slightly/Partly Over Whelmed (4) - Completely Overwhelmed (5) Here's the list if you want to play along at home: Sacking of Moore Reece James Signing Manager search and Xisco appointment Xisco press conference Friendlies Juan Delgado signs Ashley Fletcher signs Pol Valentin signs Di'Shon Barnard signs Bambo Diaby signs Anthony Musaba signs Southampton Game Devis Vasquez signs Stockport Game Lamine Diaby signs Hull Game Djeii Gassama signs Preston Game Cardiff Game USA Takeover/Fakeover Mansfield Game Jeff Hendricks signs John Buckley signs Leeds Game Season ahead WAWAW, UTO, and thanks for listening! differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast.

- Bucket Hats Have Had a RevivalJun 17, 2023 · 1 hr 2 minPart two of our Player Reviews effectively puts the amazing 2022/23 season to bed with a *spoiler alert* tear strewn finale. An exhausting, thrilling, terrible and wonderful season - typical Wednesday, as they say. Listen past the outro song for a little bonus treat. We also run our (latent) fashionista eyes over the new kit and sponsor. WAWAW, UTO, and thanks for listening! differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Thanks to Mike Dee for this great effort - Kick it! You wake up late for training, Cam you don't want to go You ask Moore to please? but he still says, no You missed two crosses, and no footwork You parry shots on target like some kind of jerk It's not right, you're so shite, at your age Stockdale caught you eating, pies, man he says, "No way" Stocky hypocrite eats four pies a day Man, sitting on the bench is such a drag But you're banking crazy wages, so keep up the blag, busted It's not right, you're so shite, at your age It's not right Don't step out on that pitch if that's the best you gonna play I'd kick you out of S6 if I had my way Chansiri busted in and said, what's that noise?

- An Elephantine TaskJun 10, 2023 · 1 hr 35 minWe've all been waiting since December to find out is Alex Mighten improve on his mid-season B-? Well the wait is finally over because we are proud to present our exhaustive end of season player reviews. Spread across a generous two episodes and continuing our Countdown inspired 'one from the top, one from the bottom' squad order, we talk about the first 14 players here and the remaining squad members and the all important big boss man Darren Moore at the end of next week's episode.

- Wee Man for the Big OccasionJun 4, 2023 · 1 hr 37 minHey You Guys! We are back with the final B.O.O.B.S. session for this 2022/23 season as we review the League One Play Off Final against Barnsley. Join us to hopefully find an undercurrent of success and joy running beneath reviewing a mildly dour big game that nevertheless ends in beautiful breathtaking triumph. This episode has got it all... perm helmets, corrupt American senators, RDA of humour, Rich's niche RawArse rating, Asterix the Gaul, Luke doesn't know how to pronounce marathon etc. Next week we will be back to recap and get our judgey-wudgey on the full player ratings!

- Jaden Smith, Kylie Jenner, Matt Healy, Zoe Kravitz...May 20, 2023 · 2 hr 11 minAnd with what we felt would be the last episode of the B.O.O.B.S. Sessions (“The Last Crusty Cop A Feel?”), the mighty Sheffield Wednesday pull off the greatest comeback in playoff football history. Join us for an episode so lengthy that we almost considered doing a live watch back. In it we once again go back to our in-depth analysis to capture all of the delight and elation of the Masterclass put on by Darren Moore’s Sheffield Wednesday. Expect talk of Mechs, Steve Bruce reparations, and more adventures of Detective Paterson. differentgravypod@gmail.com https://twitter.com/gravy_pod Hosted on Acast.

- A Lot More Smudgeface To ComeMay 13, 2023 · 1 hr 31 minThe Different Gravy: The B.O.O.B.S (Back On Our Bull S***) Sessions continue, sadly. This was a rough one, as rough as they come. We try and remember how we used to do these match reviews and just about hold back the tears as we discuss the Play Off Semi Final leg one. There's some room thankfully for the odd fun digression Callum Paterson as hard bitten noir detective, Michael Smith exposed as the Greggs loving fiend that he is, the usual talk about willies.

- A Spoonful Weighs A TonMay 7, 2023 · 1 hr 12 minWelcome to "Different Gravy: The B.O.O.B.S (Back On Our Bull S***) Sessions"! The first episode back after the boys gave a murky halftime season review for the 22/23 season sees Luke and Rich give a slightly more optimistic, or less urine soaked chips, viewpoint on the end of the regular season. Recorded with Rich finding the least sweaty place he could park following a rare victory over Derby (expect sound effects of police, ambulances, and birds (Song of the South Stand, anyone?)), we get into a brief coverage of the game, a check into the lads’ whelm-o-meters, and look ahead to the playoffs. Expect talk of Paul Warne almost making a Ralph Wiggum heartbreak face, the wonders of a Mr. Physio Magic Sponge, and Darren Ferguson’s early work. The Gravy Boys will also be back to review the glory/misery of the forthcoming Playoffs, so keep it locked! WAWAW! differentgravypod@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

- 29 Minutes in HeavenJan 1, 2023 · 1 hr 21 minJoin us in embarking on 2023 with our final look at the squad at the halfway point of the 2022/23 season. In Part Deux, we begin with Dennis Adeniran and then finish off with Akin Famewo before ending up debating Mr. Moore's pros and cons. If that sounds underwhelming, then don't worry, there is plenty of meat to get into. On the way we get into Cockney Corporals, prodigal wunderkids supping Hooch by the bike sheds, and Luke nearly makes himself cry from depressing himself. Happy New Year!

- Using a Melon Baller to Scrape Out a TurkeyDec 25, 2022 · 1 hr 50 minLuke and Rich are back... with disappointing results! Listen as we review the SWFC squad for the first half of the 22/23 season just before mid-season eve (playing Fleetwood). In this first of two new episodes, we take a snake-like approach winding their way through the squad numbers starting at one "Mr. Wednesday" Liam Palmer to another "kinda Mr. Wednesday" in Cammy Dawson. Listen and find out why Alan Michael Sugar Trading has nothing to worry about from Rich, Moore is tyre-kicking donkeys at Blackpool, and whose aging Rolls Royce bod do we want to get out of the garage. It's a pleasure to come back for these special episodes and we want to wish a Merry Christmas/Lovely Festive Period to all Wednesdayites everywhere!

Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. The 150th episode (and last) of Different Gravy has a special treat with the Boys decreeing their Favourite and Worst XIs from their Wednesday-watching careers in one of the chunkiest episodes yet. We also cover best and worst manager, break hoo-hoos for the last time, and thank the many sweet people who have sent sweet and lovely messages in. And yet there is still more that happens! Further episode notes: Also thanks to Samuel Gleadall for the intro suggestion and enjoy the alternative theme tune done by DJ Millstar. Forgive the emotions and blubbering in this episode as we for the last time give our love letter to Sheffield Wednesday. We have loved making the show and we dearly thank you for listening.

Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. Part two of our exploration of the extended Gravy Podimatic Universe. A sit down with probably the most mentioned non-Wednesday player in the history of the podcast, the oft quoted 'Suz' AKA Rich's little sister Suzanne. Tales of mostly bad Wednesday sides, sitting with the opposition fans and being left dumbstruck by the multi-positioned Scot that is Lee Bullen. There's also a big announcement at the end.

Join us as we tune this radio all the way from NML to FML (Lewis Wing), getting all judgey-wudgey on every station (player) we come across. We also end up with more pithy awards with Luke's Mount Rushmore faces of reinvention and the most disastrous signing of the year. Then we finally cast judgment on everyone's second-favourite Big Dave, Darren Mark Moore. WAWAW Stay Safe www.differentgravypod.co.uk differentgravypod@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Part deux of the 21/22 Season Review AKA giving the Wednesday players gold stars or a stern telling off.

Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. This episode was also nearly called "Big Night for Petroleum Jelly at S6" named for the sheer level of vaseline applied to cuts and bruises, and not for... well, you know, any funner activities. Join us (or not, we get it) for a rundown of the tragic denouement to Wednesday's 21/22 season in the review of the home "draw that was a defeat" against Sunderland. Mixed and plentiful emotions alongside Luke's sausage cup, Rich's Storey as singer-songwriter comparison, and dreaded memories of that gobby knobhead from school.

Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. In this week’s episode we ponder the space between a rock and a hard place, between two stools etc as we sit in the taint between two legs of Play Off football. Luke is disappointed and pessimistic for the home leg, Rich is more upbeat and positive (though maybe just for Covid) - somehow Wednesday will prove the both wrong.

Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. Luke and Rich lift their tired voices and certainly get lyrical (along with waxing lyrical) to toast Wednesday having a great day in the S6 Sunshine in front of a bumper crowd. We get into saluting Georgie Byers, the complexion of Alan Irvine, and the failed kids puppet George Horse. WAWAW Stay Safe www.differentgravypod.co.uk differentgravypod@gmail.com Hosted on Acast.

Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. We continue to wrestle with the strange reality that Sheffield Wednesday are really good at corners as the slim prospect of automatic promotion is snuffed out. All eyes on the Play Off prize then, but not before some standard useless refereeing, strange subs and sub standard finishing - it's The Wednesday Way after all!

Sheffield Wednesday Football Club sit comfortably in 5th place in SkyBet English Football League One - with a game in hand on some divisional rivals and a competitive goal difference - so why are we suffused with a deep unease? The facts all look good but it doesn't feel like things are going that well. Along comes a match that feels like the season in a nutshell, sailing high and comfortable, then humbled on the basics. For a bit of fun we also talk through the heated Bannan vs Hunt friendship showdown. WAWAW Stay Safe www.differentgravypod.co.uk Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Listeners with misophonia be warned the culmination of match review is essentially the sound of the Gravy Boys lapping up a bowl of lukewarm Womble tears. A fascinating game to talk through, a great cathartic finish and finally somebody talking about that time Will Smith slapped Chris Rock - what more could you ask for?

- Is it Rambo or George Byers?Mar 27, 2022 · 1 hr 39 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. In this week’s episode we cover a lot of crazy milestones and stats: Hutch and Baz notching up 200 and 300 appearances George Byers with 100% Rambo conversion Massimo Luongo with 100% overhead kick conversion Lee Gregory with 100% emergency dental care surgery execution Oh, and how good was that Jack Hunt goal?!?! A weird game, for sure, but one in which we put four past Luke’s new hated team, Cheltenham Town Football Club. Come enjoy with us these three points and sneaking back into the top six.

- Moore as Overproductive Workshop ElfMar 20, 2022 · 1 hr 28 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. How do we podcast the two recent humdrum draws? In very quick fashion! In the Stanley portion of the episode, expect us covering Sliding Doors as always (still haven’t seen it), cooling racks from Harrods, and the Jitterbug. Then some more mirth was had, but boy howdy, was the Gillingham game poor and frustrating. WAWAW Stay Safe www.differentgravypod.co.uk Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Saido’s Blue SteelMar 13, 2022 · 1 hr 38 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. A truly remarkable game to review - The Joy of Six, Six on the Beach, We scored six etc. We drink it all in, add a soupçon of transfer talk to top things off. The game was over as a contest within 10 minutes but the podcast has added drama as Rich may be attacked at any moment in another dark car park. Will he survive? You'll have to listen to find out.

- Sheffield Wednesday as Rodney DangerfieldMar 6, 2022 · 2 hr 2 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. The globe trotting Sheffield Wednesday podcast Different Gravy returns one quarter recorded late Friday night in Scotland, one quarter recorded on Sunday afternoon in Roadchef car park near Kendal (Mintcake? Don't mind if I do) the other half a bit earlier than both those times from frigid Alberta, Canada.To games to cover, lots of contrast between the two and Luke unveils his long-awaited autobiography "The Comfort Of Goals".

- Will Flex for CallumpFeb 27, 2022 · 1 hr 17 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. Wednesday busting into the top 6, another great win and another clean sheet - cue an overlong episode of giddy, giggly Different Gravy right? Maybe not. Our shortest episode in a while picking through performance so competent and controlled it was almost soporific. Could it be we don't know how to podcast the "Good Times"? I'm sure we'll figure it out! WAWAW Stay Safe www.differentgravypod.co.uk differentgravypod@gmail.com Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
- Master Splinter on Praise or GrumbleFeb 20, 2022 · 1 hr 35 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. Luke and Rich (AKA Jack Bauer of the pod, Psychic Physio etc.) really enjoy themselves in this episode. Maybe the lethal comeback against Donny Rovers in a 3-1 win allows the Boys to be in a jovial mood to cover a Captain Planet reboot and Roald Dahl commentary references. We also highly support mental health, but maybe not strange promotional materials for mental health campaigns… but hey, now we all know how to recognize a Doncastrian in distress.

Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. Ups and downs on this week's Different Gravy as we cover 3 points again Wigan and then nowt against the Millers. A bitter pill to swallow for the main course today, but there is mirth to be had in covering Hutch and Palmer's "Mates XI".

- Where Desperate Dan becomes The Elephant ManFeb 6, 2022 · 1 hr 29 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. A 9 point week, a rare treat for long suffering Wednesday fans - so this week we'll find the Gravy Boys in fine fettle, giddy and excited, right? They certainly wouldn't devote a considerable chunk of the episode to bullying a fictional character would they? You'll just have to listen to find out.

- Ed Sheeran Loves Nando’s and PossessionJan 30, 2022 · 1 hr 18 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. However you add it up (much like the dumb sponsorship maths symbols on the Ipswich shirts), Ed Sheeran loves himself some insipid Nando's and some even more droll possession football from his beloved Tractor Boys. We do too as it allows the missed chances to still mean a clean sheet (!!!) and a victory where we don't have to score buckets of goals in Wednesday's home 1-0 win over Ipswich. Expect high level toaster analysis from our new pod friend and Luke and Rich both lowering the tone with questionable comparisons. Also we somehow signed some players before Deadline Day!

- Windus Crispy PancakesJan 23, 2022 · 1 hr 19 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. Naming an unhanged team following scintillating success, what could possibly go wrong? Unfortunately the answer seems to be "everything".There's some transfer chat and a poorly delivered anecdote about recently departed comedian Louie Anderson - if that doesn't sound like a good time then I honestly don't know what to say to you...

- Mendez-Laing Perfects the HarrisJan 16, 2022 · 1 hr 31 minA weekly look at all things Sheffield Wednesday - news, views, boardroom politics and the all important performances on the pitch. Bringing some levity to life as a Wednesdayite, enjoying the highs and only occasionally wallowing in the lows. Finally we get to play football and finally, we get to beat Plymouth! We get to cover Wednesday bagging four goals in a scintillating six goal spectacle and uncovering the forgotten treasures of Sow and Mendez-Laing in the Wednesday squad. Ahead of this we cover a modicum of transfer linkage and our hearts bleed for the poor local journos. P.S. We are so happy that we apologise for the terrible sound quality from Rich thanks to Luke's duff internet connection. We correct the sound quality for the second half review, sorry!
