Can anyone tell me about Men In Blazers? What is their format? What do they talk about? I keep hearing great things but I don't make time for podcasts. Maybe I should.
It's kind of hard to explain. They are just really funny and intelligent. They make so many analogies to music and movies with soccer. Honestly, there isn't too much factual backing to anything they talk about. It's just very funny and very entertaining. They are 2 Brits that actually love the USA and openly root for them. Roger Bennet is also a self-loathing Everton fan. He basically starts every sentence with "Davo(who is the other host)...." then drops some funny line.

Roger Bennett is a soccer writer for ESPN and Michael Davies is a tv producer for Fox. Two British guys, Bennett is an Everton fan and Davies is a Chelsea fan, but they both live in the US and so are able to make a lot of cross cultural and cross sport references and jokes. They also cover the us men's national team pretty heavily.
Each podcast is a little over an hour, usually about 45-50 minutes of EPL or USA natl team recap interspersed with jokes or anecdotal tangents, followed by about a 20-30 min interview with a guest. Someone like Rebecca Lowe, Ian Darke, Tim Howard, Rob Stone. Think they had Sunil Gulati and Bob Bradley on recently
