53 Minutes

Our take on 53 Minutes podcast

53 Minutes feels like a fun chat, but it is about a story that is so wild that it's hard to believe it's true: the bizarre saga of Ali Dia, who bluffed his way into the Premier League for just 53 minutes. Each week, Josh Widdicombe and Dara Ó Briain, two giants in the comedy world, alongside guests from the football world, crack this almost mythical story and share a laugh over one of football's most inexplicable tales. It's a mix of disbelief, humour, and a touch of nostalgia for the football era of the '90s. Whether you're a football fanatic or just in for a good story, 53 Minutes delivers. It's like uncovering a time capsule with a twist so peculiar you can't help but be hooked. 53 Minutes is a sports podcast by Global.
