Episode 40 - The Genius of David Squires with....David Squires!

Very special edition this week - we dig into what makes the genius of Guardian football cartoonist David Squires with the man himself. We cover loads - how David started off at Swindon Town, where he designed the club mascot, earned the fury of Steve McMahon, broke into the ground with his mates and how he spent some time with a porn-watching electrician. We also talk Arsene Wenger, Gunnersaurus, the challenges of writing in an era in which the truth is stranger than cartoon fiction and in an era when England are really quite.....good. David's got a new book out that we highly recommend - Goalless Draws Illuminating The Genius of Modern Football. Plus - Tortured Pun Corner, and Chris Waddle forces us into a dramatic change of theme tune. Get in touch - tweet @TheReducerPod or email @gcooney93.
