Qatar 2022: The King's Favourite

In today's Very Special Episode, Tamara talks to business partner and former housemate Lallie about, in time-honoured 110 Percent tradition, all things WAG., running the gamut from Southgatian WAGs, legacy numbers, Germany's scapegoating, Moroccan Pop Idol stars, Rooney vs Vardy, and the biggest White Lotus spoiler of them all.

Qatar 2022: How does an Aquarius take a free kick

The ladies reunite to discuss the battle for Al-Andalus, the nebulous concept of respect, who or what Olivia hates (and Tamara won't be drawn on), how many Latin American countries is too many, and our favourite manager, Raymond Domenech.

Qatar 2022: The failed-coup bounce

The ladies muse expansively on World Cup infighting, both historic and present-day, also finding time to cover whether it's too early to consider things coming home, how many political statements a pitch invader can make (at most) and more hyping of Serbia vs. Switzerland: the Sequel.

Qatar 2022: Erklärungsnot

The ladies regroup after a rocky start to the tournament to get into the weeds discussing seismic upsets, Al-Hilal, golden toilets, and the first game of the competition: Does this headline reference Argentina's 2-1 defeat or a national tragedy? 

*A correction: Saudi pirate streaming site is referred to as beOUT; it's actually beoutQ. Let's say the Q is silent.

Qatar 2022: Guess who's back? (Robbie Williams)

The ladies return to inform the uninformed on the eve of the Sportswashing Cup— Qatar World Cup 2022. We talk sock length, autocrats, calves, past and present Jack Grealish Cup winners, the value-add of Shakira, and the moral rectitude of FIFA.

Radio 110: We're Stylists

We potentially bite off more than we can chew unpicking Manchester City's numerous breaches of UEFA's FFP regulations, but financial corruption will surely join other topics in our wheelhouse that we also discuss in the episode: VAR, Bottega Veneta clutch bags and the merits and demerits of Olivier Giroud.

Back in our regularly-scheduled, rarely-observed slot, we're keeping relevant discussing this evening's FA Cup match when Shrewsbury play Liverpool's Infants, what that means for the FA Cup and Jürgen Klopp, why footballers love Nusr-et, and Neymar's birthday party. Because of course we do.

The girls bookend an incredibly serious conversation about Bulgaria, Haringey Borough versus Yeovil Town, and football’s racist problem with two asinine quizzes, and a moment on form analysis turns into a pronunciation lesson.

Episode 8 - Antonio Cassono & Dua Lipa

Allegedly, it's the scandal episode at 110 Percent, where Livi and Tamara try and revisit all of our favourite stories - although there are too many to count. We manage to squeeze in Bruno and Eliza Samudio, Rhodri and Ryan Giggs, the Zahia Affair, and try and work out what exactly a pierced party chicken could be.

Episode 7 - Mohamed Boumezrag & BDE

Livi and Tamara talk big dick energy and provide a vital primer on who’s got it this competition and who doesn’t. We then get half-serious and talk about football, politics, and nationalism, when Mussolini pretended to invent football and a France-Algeria friendly gone awry. Also, Livi flies to Belgrade halfway through the episode. * Corrections' Corner - we say that France and Algeria haven't played since the 2001 friendly! They have.

Livi is in Cyprus! When we're not talking about Zinedine Zidane - which we do for a long, languorous time - we touch on the nature of the underdog, live goats, and say farewell to Hervé Reynard just in time to say hello to a new segment, Shade Report.

Episode 4 - Robbie Williams & Lavrentiy Beria

Livi and Tamara dip a toe into their Russia obsession talking proletariat hero Lev Yashin, the NKVD, and the Baltic Fleet, as well as the first instalment of Livi's invaluable travel guide.

A note: sadly, our cries of laughter halfway through the episode might have broken one of the mics, so towards the end of the episode, there is a lot of white noise. The content stands, but if you don't like listening to your podcasts like you're holding a shell up to your ear, we understand!
