Ep. 22 Six Nations 2025 Week 2 Recap. THIS IS THE ONLY GAME IN TOWN. The Six Nations is in full swing as we have our first upset as England downed France in the last minute, Scotland and Ireland served up business as usual as Scotland fail to land a punch, and Italy marked a passing of the guard seeing off Wales.
We are joined by Pat Ryan (@notions_comedy), a standup comic, host of Notions Comedy Club and a behind the scenes audio-fixer-upper that has saved Jack's sanity on more than one occasion.
We discuss what a good welsh tournament looks like, why Scotland can only seem to get up for England and Ireland quietly getting down to winning. We also mention the Super Bowl. regrettably.
