Wherein I have another lovely chat with the incredible Robbie Nock, the voice of the Top 14! If you're enjoying listening, please subscribe to our YouTube Channel, and tell a friend to give us a try! If you still haven’t left a review, I’d really appreciate it if you could take that bit of time, it’s really more helpful than I can say. In the meantime, thanks as always for your support! Sound bites commonly used in this show are from the show, “Still Game,” available on Netflix, and “The West Wing,” available on HBO, I highly recommend both. Thanks, cheers and be well!
