    In honor of Ben Foster The temporary stand should be called "the Stand of Foz" here for a short time but makes a big impact while around. This was not my idea I saw it elsewhere but thought it was fun

    Fantastic interview Rog. Humphrey is such an authentic and honest person, he's the perfect go between between the difficult decision makers and the guys trying to sprinkle Hollywood fairy dust.

    Haha, the Paul Mullin and Phil impressions. Well done, Humphrey (with everything, not just impressions). And Rog, your interviews are always entertaining and informative.

    Rog has such whimsical way of segueing between topics unlike any human I've ever heard speak. It is truly magnificent and almost fairytale like. What a legend! You could tell comedians like John Oliver and Humphrey loved it for being such a unique and interesting interviewing style.

    I would love to hear Humphrey's library of impressions of the players and personnel of the entire Wrexham AFC organization. I suspect it's gold!

    Great interview! I do imagine, sometimes, how absolutely mad it's all been: from Humphrey being teased by Rob about watching football and trying to get Rob interested in football, to Rob saying, "Let's buy a football club"! I imagine Humphrey just laughing because everyone knows you don't just go out and buy a football club....except this is Rob McElhenney and he put his money where his mouth was. And he brought Ryan Reynolds in on it, too (what a masterstroke, by the way). Wow. But to see the owners actually following through on their stated intention to nurture the town, not just the club is what speaks the most volumes, I'd say. So inspiring, even to us 'little people': it shows that anyone/everyone can make a difference because it's all in the details and authenticity.

    His Scouse impression was so good, amazing how quickly he learned it from Paul Mullin - being a kopite his Norwegian accent must be immense

    "We have a young audience who listen to this show." - Rog around 8:35. YES! I knew it! I'm considered young!! Humphrey is too! Hell, Rog is also, right??

    I am from Wrexham, but now live in Canada.
    Recently vacationed in Jamaica, lots of Americans. My family were like A list celebrities. Every other American wanted their photo with us. Crazy.
    Also, Jamaican locals could tell me the score from last weekend. More crazy.

      Felt like an afterthought. Would have loved an episode of just the parade with what that promotion means spliced in from the town. Maybe an epilogue of realizing what needs to be done for the next year
