  • David Seaman Live: Clean Sheets, Cup Finals and Career Secrets
    2026/02/11
    We’re on the road for a very special Dispatch - our first ever live show, coming to you in front of an audience in central London , and joined by one of the greatest to ever to stand between the sticks for Arsenal. With Frimmy and Josh James hosting on stage, the legendary David Seaman sits down for an in‑depth conversation in front of an audience of Gooners . From his work today with our academy keepers to his memories behind Arsenal’s greatest defensive units, David shares incredible insight from a career spanning 1,000 competitive games, 237 clean sheets, and nine major trophies. He talks us through returning to the training ground for the first time in years, how modern keepers are coached to play out from the back, and why decision‑making under pressure matters more than highlight‑reel saves. There’s also plenty of nostalgia, from signing for Arsenal after almost joining Manchester United, to winning the league in his first season, to cup finals against Sheffield Wednesday and that unforgettable save at Old Trafford. We open the floor to the audience too, with questions on the Golden Glove, his greatest-ever teammates, the psychology of title races, and who he rates as the best goalkeepers of all time. It’s a landmark episode - our first live show, a club legend on stage, and stories you won’t hear anywhere else.

    We’re back in the Emirates Stadium studio for another packed edition of The Dispatch. It’s a slightly different line‑up this week, with Josh James joined by Gianluca Freschi, as Frimmy is off capturing content for future episodes! There’s only one place to start: the Carabao Cup semi‑final win over Chelsea. Gian takes us inside the press box for Kai Havertz’s dramatic late clincher, plus the incredible post‑match tunnel chaos that produced some of our favourite content of the season so far. From there, we look back on a historic week for Arsenal Women, who were crowned inaugural FIFA Champions Cup winners after a wild, rain‑soaked 3–2 victory over Corinthians at home in N5. Hear insight from Caitlin Foord’s extra‑time heroics, Lotte Wubben‑Moy’s leadership, and Emma Holbrook’s cameo message (trophy in hand). We also break down the latest milestones for Mikel Arteta’s side: 20 clean sheets, 30 wins, two Hale End debuts, and a January full of record‑breaking away form. Plus, Gian opens up Content Corner with updates on Arsenal’s brand‑new Reddit launch, the debut of Agony Arsenal with Steph Catley, and… yes… the moment Frimmy’s trousers fell down on Away Days. All that, and a little tease of next week’s mystery on‑the‑road special episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
