Ups and Downs - A Leeds United Audio Series
Ups and Downs Productions
Frequency: 1 episode/7d. Total Eps: 5

Phil and Rob are lifelong Leeds United fans; and complete opposites when it comes to following the club. Rob’s the optimist. Phil’s the pessimist, shaped by years of Leeds-induced damage.
Over a pint, they chew over the latest Leeds chaos team selections, dodgy decisions, last-minute drama, and the emotional toll of following this club. Follow them through the season as they ride the wins, survive the losses, and overthink the draws.
Written by Chris O’Connor (Through It All Together, Inside Elland Road) and performed every episode by lifelong Leeds fan Paul Fox and Dean Smith of The Square Ball.
A pint-fuelled podcast comedy drama about hope, fear, frustration — and sticking with Leeds through the ups & downs.
