Clapham’s finest are BACK. In a bigger, brasher studio, Freddy Clode reunites with the self-proclaimed CEO of Clapham, Archie Curzon, to revive the multi-award-winning Rig Biz energy—Le Bantier at full throttle. From Archie's catastrophic crypto saga to why “the people need something” in a flatlining economy, the boys dive straight into the chaos, swap tears for takedowns, and set the tone for a new era of unapologetic city chat meets rugby reality. There’s proper rugby meat on the bone, too. Archie drops a bombshell—leaving Clapham Falcons and signing for Richmond—while the lads chew over the biggest headline of the season: the Red Bull-fuelled Newcastle takeover, Dimes’ exit, and whispers of marquee signings. Expect boardroom metaphors, PE/VC ruthlessness, and the kind of blunt verdicts that make timelines melt. And for the comeback guest? None other than World Cup champion Hannah Botterman. From the viral slow-mo knee slide to life inside a transformed Red Roses setup - cigarette burns, what really happened during the 3 day piss up - what it was like to work as painter and decorator and much more —nutritionists, cookies and all—Hannah brings needle, honesty and elite standards. Rivalries, France away, the psychology of winning 33 on the bounce: it’s all here, with Rig Biz mischief woven through. Tap in, turn it up, and welcome back to the city’s greatest rugby circus.
