Ive just finished my first full month as a subscriber of TAW. So i thought i would share my thoughts. I had been listening to TAW through the radio at first, then the free episodes on iTunes for about 12 months. I immediately fell in love with it.
A whole show dedicated to MY team, not just like 2 mins on a netural radio station.
Firstly, I loved the passion that came through to my ears. Not just for Liverpool the football team, but for the City itself. I would listen to the build up show and the post match reaction ones and its like im sat in the pub with my mates, talking about our favoruite club.
Either a celebratory pint or drowning our sorrows. The banter between these group of lads is incredible. You can really hear the closeness and the passion for this great club. It is quite a funny podcast too!!! (Listen to the Christmas Bumper Quiz!!!!)
I suddenly found that i would think things and they would say them, so I knew we had similar football brains. So I became addicted. I would always hope for a long episode as i do a lot of mileage for my job, so it would keep me company and make the time go quicker.
Then comes Neil's "WWE Style" Promos! (Fair play mate) He talks so passionaltey on WHY you should be a subscriber to TAW. Why I am missing out on some epic shows and the vast variety that are recorded every month!
I needed more! I couldnt just have the Free ones. I needed to listen to other show about other parts of the club and other LFC topics. Like transfers, oppositon opinons, interviews, genreic discussions, looking back at the old days! I knew i could feel a part of it.
So i took the plunge a month ago and I have NEVER looked back. As a season ticket holder in the main stand, i will listen to TAW all week (Especially the Friday Show) and get myself excited for that weeks game even more. Then when im back at work i'll take in all the fallout and join in on the discussions! (well in my head i will)
Im a big fan of The Gutter Show. Probably because it was January!! (Rob, im sure it will be good the rest of the time!)
AFQ is great when we get to interact via twitter! (Although some of the stuff that comes thorugh is hilarious!)
Friday show as i said is an excellent way to gear up for the weekend!
Willdcards is great to look back on those fond LFC memories...and other stuff!
But Subcriber Exclusive is where you are like....IF THAT WASNT ENOUGH...THERES THIS!!!
Amazing show exclusives!
(Chect out the latest Kenny Dalglish one) TAW Moments in Time - Truly Amazing!
Neil, Rob, Andy, Gareth, Phil, John, Craig, Kev and everone else...You guys are fantastic! Keep up the good work and if you ever need and extra person in that studio, please give me a shout! I'd consider it an honour and a pleasure!
