Mail Sport’s It’s All Kicking Off! podcast has just received a major nod for its impressive debut season.
The British Podcast Awards has included it in the running for sports podcast of the year, alongside other strong contenders like Jimmy Anderson’s Tailenders and Gary Lineker’s The Rest Is Football
Launched last summer, It’s All Kicking Off! quickly made a name for itself with daily episodes throughout the Euros.
Hosted by Football Editor Ian Ladyman and Premier League star Chris Sutton, the podcast managed to catch the attention of both critics and fans alike.
A Word from the Team
Jamie East, Mail’s Head of Podcasts, shared his excitement about the nomination: “I’m thrilled that our team’s hard work is being recognized by the BPA.
Ian and Chris have brought a fresh perspective and captivating analysis that’s quickly become a favorite among football fans. I’m eager to see where the new season takes us!”
Ian Ladyman also expressed his gratitude: “It’s a huge thrill to get this nomination, especially considering how vast and competitive the sports podcast market is.
Chris and I started this project just a year ago, and to be recognized so soon is a testament to our producer Henry Williams, our head of podcast Jamie East, and everyone at Mail Sport.
Although, I do have to wonder if I’ll be stuck sitting next to Chris at the awards night. Isn’t that part of the job already?”
Looking Ahead
It’s All Kicking Off! is set to return at the start of the football season in August, with new episodes dropping twice a week. You can catch it on Spotify, Apple, Amazon, or wherever you get your podcasts.
