  • How do British people choose their NFL teams? What's that experience like? Find out in this episode of Asleep at Work.


    In this episode, Fletch speaks with Ravens fan and active member of the NFLUK community, Phil Cartlich. They talk about how his Uncle played a pivotal role in his NFL discovery. Why his competitive nature, coupled with his thirst for knowledge, drove him deeper into his love of the sport and how he's managed to find himself torso-deep in the community with fantasy football and Read Options. Oh, and college football too. You won't find many people who've been so dedicated to so many facets of this sport at the best of times, let alone for as long as Phil has.


    Phil's Read Options is a football book-swapping scheme, designed to help fans across the country discover new football literature and make new connections through their love of football literature.

    In this episode, Fletch speaks with Browns fan Oli. They talk about:

    - The NBA vs NFL

    - Making mistakes

    - Why a certain AFC North DL is a bit too highly rated...

    and so much more


    Oli visited family back in the mid-2000s in Cleveland and has been enamoured by the city and its sports ever since. Initially being hooked by LeBron James and the NBA, Baker Mayfield turned the tables for him. His journey since has been one of pure dedication to the game he now loves. Which brought him to the AAW Network and our HTL podcast.

    - Madden

    - The NFL UK Community

But, while Shaun’s a passionate fan of the sport as a whole, his number one love is the New York Giants. A love that took him all the way to MetLife stadium in New Jersey.

    In this episode, Fletch speaks with New York Jets fan, Matt Cullen. They talk about:

    - Matt's family over in the States

    - Watching the Jets in New York

    - Fantasy Football

    - The Joshua Tarrant Trust

    - Influencer culture over fans

    - and much more


    Matt is a well-respected and loved member of the NFLUK community, who's never afraid to stand up and speak up when the British fanbase isn't being treated right by the powers that be.But more importantly, he's someone who's put a LOT of his own time, energy and money into the sport over the years without ever asking for anything in return. That didn't stop the incredible NFLUK Community getting right behind him in his time of need.

  • Welcome back to the Asleep at Work Podcast, the podcast where we talk to every day NFL fans from across the pond to find out how they came across the sport and chose the team they love.


    In this episode, we do something a little different - we invited 3 previous guests back to talk about the state of the NFL in the UK after all 5 international series games have passed, the NFL announced that they were adding additional practice squad slots for international pathway players and they expanded their international home marketing areas.

  • Welcome to the Asleep at Work Podcast where we talk to every day British fans of the NFL and ask them about why they love a sport played 3k miles away so much that they'd be willing to be Asleep at Work the next day.

    In episode one we chat to Kansas City Chiefs fan, Tom Craft about discovering the NFL, his journey into Chiefs Kingdom, some of his personal highlights of the fandom so far (SPOILER: you'd be surprised at what he doesn't pick) and his tips for surviving work after a late one.
