Description
The Late Challenge is a Liverpool FC podcast and video show with Gareth Roberts and Mo Stewart, getting stuck into everything happening around The Reds — on the pitch, off it and everywhere in between.
Robbo is a Kop season-ticket holder, while Mo covers Liverpool from the press box at Anfield. Together they dissect the football, debate the big talking points and give an independent take on the issues surrounding the club.
Paul Cope and Stu Wright also regularly join the conversation, while special guests from football, sport and beyond drop in from time to time.
Beyond the regular Liverpool shows, TLC occasionally branches out into wider football, sport, current affairs and life as a middle-aged football fan.
Expect strong opinions, plenty of debate and a willingness to challenge the prevailing view — but Liverpool FC will always come first.
