In the final episode of Season 3 Rivo and Rich are joined by former Reading, Wycombe Wanderers, MK Dons, Wales international striker, Simon Church.

On the pod, Buckinghamshire born Simon talks about the start of his career joining Wycombe before moving to Reading and playing an important role in the club's promotion to the Premier League in 2012.

He also talks about receiving his first international call-up for Wales via letter, the difference between domestic and international football, the impact Gary Speed and Chris Coleman had on the team and on the Country as a whole. He also gives us an insight into Wales' successful Euro 2016 campaign.
