Kal Naismith Podcast

[grifty]

Might interest a few. Seems like quite a funny guy. Good luck trying to understand everything!

‘Bristol’ Give it a rest Kal.

[mozo]

He absolutely raves about Nathan Jones, which is topical for OTIB today. 

[maxjak]

What language are they speaking?

I have an interest in Scottish football and listen to most of the Open Goal episodes. They’re funny lads who, from time to time, throw out little stories about Kal that give a glimpse into Bristol City.

Nothing too deep, but it has been reassuring over the season to hear that Kal is loving Bristol, BCFC and he thinks the squad is unbelievable (in the best possible way).

Nice one,first time I have seen these podcasts,by the way who are the other four lads?

Si Ferry - played for Celtic, then down in England - most notably under DiCanio at Swindon.

Paul “Slaney” Slane - Motherwell wonder kid who scored in the Europa when he was 17, I think. Moved to Celtic but suffered career ending injuries before it really began.

Andy Halliday - Middlesbrough, Blackpool, Bradford, Rangers… currently at Hearts.

Big Kevin Kyle - Sunderland, Coventry, Wolves, Kilmarnock, Hearts, Rangers…

Between them, they’re an encyclopaedia of football and given the teams they played for, you can sometimes get a few insights into some current and former BCFC players.

Si Ferry has a great two part Under the Cosh, mostly talking about how insane Di Canio was.

He’s also documenting his managerial journey which began at Peterhead but has now moved to the podcast funded Broomhill.

I’d also recommend Si Ferry and Slaney interviewing Carragher. They get him to open up and I found it very interesting despite having no interest in Carragher or Liverpool.

Beyond that, just jump in. They do a few each week.

Compared to my folks in NE Scotland he sounds like Brian Sewell.

[Packman]

Apparently he talks a bit about Alex Scott. Does anybody know at what point this starts?

Really strong accents.

Cor this is a tough watch... they ask Kal a question and then start banging on about a legends game

 

Is it a specialist ADHD podcast?! They can't concentrate on one thing at a time! Excruciating.

That and a bit of Trainspotting! I work with a lot of Scots and have done for years and so that helps as well. Kal and his pals are pretty easy on the ears compared to some of them tbh!

Same.

Any chance of subtitles (yes, I'm serious)?

[ScottishRed]

Happy to offer translation services for a discounted fee to OTIB members.

Trust me that podcast is like Scottish ‘lite’. Try going north of the Tay river (Dundee - North) in a pub on a Saturday night. 

  My partner barely understands a word when we go back and I am from close to Edinburgh so nowhere near as ‘broad’ as further north.

[Northern Red]

Some of you will probably remember the terror attack at Glasgow airport about 15 years or so ago, where a car filled with explosives was driven into the doors of the terminal building. Thankfully the vehicle failed to explode and there were only a few minor injuries.

I was on holiday in California at the time, and the American news networks covering the story put subtitles on the screen whenever they were playing clips of locals being interviewed.

Yeah I'm so glad you and the boys don't do that! Although an episode where you all speak in your best Scott Murray accents would be fun.

Ah yes, when confronted by a burning terrorist, one’s of the Scottish hero’s “Reportedly, he kicked Ahmed in the groin and shouted: “F****n’ mon, then.”

Another guy tore a tendon in football kicking another one!

I watched that one, some of his stories were superb. Well worth a watch on youtube or download it.

Exactly!

Anyone fluent in Jockanese able to translate?

As much as I like Naismith I can't listen to that...

I took a detour to Buckie when I was up that way simply because an old teacher of mine was a Buckie Thistle fan!
