Podcast Examines Portsmouth’s Strong Week and Improved League Standing

For those seeking audio content for a half-hour journey or during travel to Pride Park before the Friday night match between Derby and Portsmouth, the newest episode of BBC Radio Solent’s Who Needs Mourinho? podcast is now available. This installment reviews Portsmouth’s recent performance, which includes securing four points from two matches against top-half teams, marking a strong week for the club. The podcast also considers whether they can maintain this momentum against Derby, referred to as ‘the Rams,’ in a crucial game within the lower half of the Championship standings. Guy Whittingham, Andrew Moon, and Chris Wise participate in the discussion, covering topics such as Colby Bishop’s influence, the significance of moving out of the bottom three positions, and the evolving stability of the team’s previously temporary defensive lineup. The Who Needs Mourinho? podcast can be accessed for listening on BBC Sounds. Sandi Toksvig features alongside Gyles Brandreth, Lulu, Emmanuel Sonubi, and Alan Davies. Opportunities are available to sing along to tracks by Queen, Taylor Swift, Bon Jovi, Katy Perry, and other artists. Ben Fogle and Kate Humble return to cover the festive events at Longleat Safari Park. Topics range from microplastics present in air, soil, and waterways, to the scale of food waste during this period of the year. © 2024 BBC.
