Host Carl Jones is joined by former Nottingham Forest striker Jason Lee to discuss his career in football and his spell in the Premier League.
From working his way up the league ladder to playing in Europe for Nottingham Forest by his early-20s, things took a turn for the sinister when Baddiel and Skinner's infamous Fantasy Football sketch made him one of the most recognisable faces in the Premier League for a short period in the 90s.
From there, we cover the indirect impact of that sketch on his career, his most memorable moments including winning promotion and moving north of the border, and discuss his current role working in EDI and why it's so important for the modern game to keep up with the times.
