Hammered Heroes (And Villains) takes a deep dive look at the best performances by professional athletes while they were drunk, on drugs, or horribly hungover. Each week, comedians Brendan Fitzgibbons and Sophie Santos discuss a game or incident that focuses on an athlete’s mind-blowing performance despite being extremely hammered. Whether it's the Bulls' "Traveling Cocaine Circus," David Wells’ infamous half-drunk perfect game, Wade Boggs' 73-beer binge on a cross-country flight, and Charles Barkley playing drunk after day drinking because…well…I guess you’ll have to listen to find out! We’ll raise a glass to the very best in inebriated athletics. It's Drunk History meets 30 for 30 meets Jackass.
On this episode, Sophie and Brendan discuss MANY heroes as in PLURAL. They're joined by the star of the hit show, "The Russell Howard Hour," award-winning comedian, and Liverpool fan, Russell Howard! The trio discusses the culture around drinking and European football, David Beckham's career-long heckle, and how sometimes soccer fandom involves hammers. They then chat about drunk footballers Garrincha, Andy Carroll, Diego Maradona, and Ronaldinho! ENJOY MATES!
