| Leon Mallett: From Carrow Road to Centre Stage | 28 Apr 2025 | 00:39:27 | |
Welcome back to Beyond the Barclay — the podcast that’s basically your mate down the pub chatting Norwich, music, and everything in between… just with slightly better sound quality.
Now, quick disclaimer — in classic fashion, we lost the start of the recording. Jez was deep in Thetford Forest at the time, where signal goes to die and podcasts go to glitch. So if it feels like we’ve dropped you mid-convo… it’s because we have.
But don’t worry — you’re just in time for a brilliant episode with the one and only Leon Mallett. We chat about everything from his love of Norwich City and Carrow Road memories, to The X Factor, YouTube mishaps, and even the secrets behind that top-tier hairdo.
If you’ve ever wondered what a Norwich City anthem written by Leon would sound like — or who he’d collab with from the Canary faithful — this one’s for you.
Let’s get stuck in.
