England's most capped men love rugby. Ben Youngs is a scrum-half so he’s spent most of his 127 games chatting away to team-mates, opposition and referees. His mate Dan Cole is still in the England squad, and has cult hero status thanks to his no-nonsense approach to most of life’s events. They’ve spent 20 years together at Leicester Tigers, toured together for the British and Irish Lions, and now ... more

  • Good balance/insight

    Listen to a lot of rugby podcasts but this is becoming one of my favourites. Enjoy the way Ben and Dan provide smart insight without trying to be comedians.

  • Andy Farrell interview

    This was the third podcast interview with Andy Farrell I listened to on the same day, but was definitely the best of them. The way Youngs interacted with him l, seemed to put Farrell at ease and made for a much more interesting and detailed show. I enjoy the “banter” on other shows but keep coming back to FTLOR for the rugby analysis as well as the stories.
