Ali Maxwell, George Elek and David Walker have all travelled across continents to watch England play, and loved covering the team during Euro 2024. The England Pod believes that supporting England should be fun, and this show sets out to make it a reality for the millions of English football fans. Expect passion, humour, and plenty of debates about squad selection. The England Pod will cover the England Mens Senior Team, the Lionesses and the England Under-21s, with match recaps, tournament previews and balanced discussion of key issues. There will also be interviews, retrospectives, and more. If there are Three Lions on the shirt, we want to talk about it.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-17T04:18:24.151881+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-england-pod-7247244"},"episode":{"title":"England's New Identity","slug":"england-s-new-identity","published_at":"2026-06-19T02:37:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-england-pod-7247244/england-s-new-identity","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-england-pod-7247244","url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/COMG2226100010.mp3","audio_url":"https://pscrb.fm/rss/p/traffic.megaphone.fm/COMG2226100010.mp3","summary":"Ali, George and Dave reconvene for a calmer, deeper look at England's 4-2 win against Croatia in the World Cup opener.
