Hello, I'm David Baddiel and from Radio 4 and the History Podcast I'm hosting 60 Years of Hurt, a series about football and Englishness in which we try and define what Englishness actually is via the rollercoaster history of the England men's football team.

It includes contributions from various English gentlemen and women, Stephen Fry, David Seaman, England sports psychologist Pippa Grange and many others. England may or may not win the World Cup in 2026, but maybe you'll find out why it means so much to us as a country that they might do. Listen to 60 Years of Hurt on BBC Sounds.
