GARY LINEKER: “I blub more now.”

Former England captain, brilliantly pacey striker and Match of the Day host Gary Lineker is our guest this week, and as always, Lineker delivers. The BBC’s highest-paid TV presenter talks with wit and self-deprecation about testosterone, hairless testes, and the painful moment he knew football had left him. Plus red wine, mortality, toes, and in his own words, “shitting myself” live on TV in front of millions worldwide. We were privileged to have him for an hour, he is a genuine hero. As ever, email us on hello@assemblehere.co.uk, find us on Twitter @assemblehere and please consider leaving a review (sadly we can only accept glowing ones at this point).
