  • Alfie Dundas: Ben White would be my Best Man
    2026/09/23

    Comedian and Arsenal fan Alfie Dundas joins Piers and Jim to answer the important questions: how much prison time would he serve to attend the 1966 World Cup final, which footballer would make the best man at his wedding, and how did anyone celebrate before the invention of the high-five?


    Alfie assembles the ultimate footballer stag do, explains why being Jobe Bellingham would be dreadful, reviews the podcast’s questionable commitment to discussing football and reflects on the best and worst matches he has witnessed at the Emirates.

  • Chloe Petts: “I’d Be a Corrupt Referee”
    2026/09/16

    Comedian, Taskmaster contestant and lifelong Crystal Palace supporter Chloe Petts joins Piers Hewitt and Jim Daly to celebrate FA Cup glory, mysterious Roy Hodgson sightings and living on a desert island with Paul Scholes.


    Chloe explains why she trained to become a referee before deciding the job required too much “cop energy” and reveals how corrupt she would be if asked to run the line at Palace.


    She also relives the overwhelming emotion of watching Palace finally win the FA Cup, remembers the Arsenal defeat that taught her about boundaries and self-esteem, and Jim tells us about the goalless away day that ended with Bovril running down the back of his white T-shirt.


    You can watch Chloe on Taksmaster on Channel 4, and give her a follow, here

  • Alex Horne: Liverpool might be my Mummy
    2026/09/09

    Taskmaster creator Alex Horne joins Jim Daly and Piers Hewitt at Chesham United for the first-ever episode of Please Don’t Take Me Home, the new name for Away Days with Woody and Piers.


    Alex reveals how a Taskmaster event led to him joining the club’s board, why he thinks football is “90% dull” and whether Chesham now means more to him than Liverpool. He also picks his dream football Taskmaster line-up, recalls the club’s famous FA Cup giant-killing and explains how he was stood up by Peter Crouch.


    Meanwhile, Jim reveals the Egg United tattoo that gave his wife “the ick”, Piers shares his unexpected love of away-day pyjamas, and the three of them attempt to establish what the numbers on a toaster actually mean.

  • End of season wrap up, with Producer Will
    2026/05/20

    It’s the final Away Days of the season and Producer Will steps out from behind the laptop to join Woody and Piers for a chaotic look back at the year. There’s talk of Southend’s Wembley glory and managerial heartbreak, Plymouth away days in the spring sunshine, and whether seeing Wealdstone four times in one season should be legally allowed.

    The lads revisit some of the best stories from the series so far, including Joey Page’s hellish trip to Madrid, Charlie Baker’s Babacombe Model Village campaign, Terry Alderton’s unbelievable Marc Bosnich story, and the ongoing mystery of why Mark Bosnich was also spotted tenpin bowling on his own.

    There’s also football espionage, cancelled playoff finals, fake COVID inspectors, terrible hangovers, playoff heartbreak, and the emotional damage caused by loving football clubs. A fittingly rambling end to another season of Away Days.

  • Jon Beer - Is this the bleakest away day of all time?
    2026/05/13

    This week, Woody and Piers are joined by Jon Beer, Exeter City fan and co-host of You Don’t Know What You’re Doing, for one of the bleakest away day stories the show has ever heard.

    There’s plenty on lower-league obsession, Devon derby anxiety, Ollie Watkins pride, fan-owned football, why nobody needs a “Prem team”, and the strange burden of caring far too much about 11 men in shorts. Jon also explains why his family once travelled to Wembley during Covid to watch Exeter lose a play-off final on a laptop outside the stadium.

    A truly heroic low point.

  • From the San Siro to Penrith - Felix White (Part Two)
    2026/05/06

    Felix White returns for part two, taking Woody and Piers from the San Siro’s terrifyingly organised ultras to Penrith’s very accommodating chairman, via MK Dons vs AFC Wimbledon, FA Cup romance, away goals, train etiquette, service station literature and why being a Fulham fan feels very different to being a cricket fan.

    There’s also playoff heartbreak for Piers, end-of-season maths for Woody, a cow-based football injury, David Platt appreciation, and a question every football fan needs to worry about: home games or away days forever?

  • Felix White Hates Man United, Loves Fulham (Part One)
    2026/04/29

    Felix White joins Woody and Piers for Part 1 of a brilliant chat about Fulham, first away days, Craven Cottage, the strange comfort of supporting a club that lets you suffer properly, and why football can explain who you are before you’ve even worked it out yourself.

    Before that, Piers is deep in playoff anxiety, Woody is doing mathematical gymnastics, and the boys relive the chaos, limbs and full-body drama of Rochdale v York City, possibly the greatest away day of all time.

    Part 2 with Felix continues next week.
