Elis’ Homecoming Gig (Part 1)

A live edition of The Socially Distant Sports Bar, recorded for you in Carmarthen.

Elis James returns home for a special live edition of The Socially Distant Sports Bar, recorded at the Lyric Theatre in Carmarthen in front of a sold‑out crowd filled with family, friends and familiar faces.

Joining him on stage are Mike Bubbins and producer Steff Garrero, bringing their usual mix of humour, nostalgia and curiosity to a night that feels slightly more personal — and slightly less controlled — than usual.

In the first half, the conversation ranges from Don Revie’s unconventional managerial techniques to the realities of Sunday League football, alongside a memorable story involving a teacher outrunning an entire class.

It’s the podcast as ever — just with a hometown crowd very much part of it.
