Episode Details

Knuckles sits down with West Yorkshire’s own Jonny Raithby (Dewsbury) for a raw look at working-class England, rugby league obsession, and the darker edges of UK football culture. Jonny explains how towns get hooligan risk ratings, why away fans are segregated, and what it’s like growing up between Leeds/Bradford/Wakefield/Huddersfield. Then it takes a wild turn: Jonny’s strange claim to fame—repairing a hot water system at the home of one of the London 7/7 bombers weeks before the attacks—and how that era changed everyday life, from airport paranoia to no rubbish bins in central London. Candid, heavy in parts, and very, very real. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
