First broadcast from a bored, lockdown-stricken 20-year-olds bedroom in August 2020, The We Talk Seahawks Podcast (WTS) is and has always been a blue collar podcast.

The show consists of three passionate, dedicated and rant-prone British Seattle Seahawks fans: Host, James and Co-Hosts Pietro (aka 'Positive Pez') and Josh. We don't claim to be experts by any means, and trust me, you'll work that out for yourselves pretty quickly anyway.

Instead, we're just your average casual Hawks fans who say some naughty words, passionately criticise and praise our team. We don't record from soundproofed recording studios with top of the range equipment, £20 microphones whilst battling to find the quietest corners of our homes away from wives, kids and nagging parents sound better to us.   

But most importantly, we hope to put a few smiles on the faces of our brilliant and loyal listeners. So to all of you who've tuned in to our show so far, and to those who may in the future, thank you so much from all three of us at The We Talk Seahawks Podcast. 

 

James - Host

The mediator of the madness, you'll most likely hear James coming out with scarily accurate analogies and equally scary hot takes. See case of James predicting Gerald Everett to lead the NFL in Tight End receiving yards for the 2021 season.

When formulating his ideas and visions for WTS, James saw ripped up the successful podcast rulebook and decided his podcast would break almost all of those rules. Expert hosts? Don't want those. Hosts who make birds sing when they put sentences together? **** that. A meticulously planned and strictly followed episode by episode layout? Rabbit holes sound better, etc etc. And in the two people below, he found exactly what he was looking for.

 

Pietro/Pez - Co-Host

If you were to look up the definition of a 'passionate outburst' in a thesaurus, you'd more than likely find Pez' name next to it. If you're looking for an extensive education of the expletive side of the English language, Pez is your man for that.

What you'll also quickly find out about Pez - that is if you hadn't worked it out for yourself 10 minutes into practically any episode - is that he's the founder of the Jordyn Brooks fan club. If he's not wearing his number 56 jersey, he'll be cuddled up in bed with it, for one reason or another. Knowledgeable. Opinionated. Uncensored. Unmissable. 

 

Josh - Co-Host

Josh is the calming presence of the show. Often seen kicking back and sampling his beverage of choice as he visibly ducks and dodges the f-bombs, before elegantly and confidently voicing his opinion on whatever rabbit hole Pez has inevitably taken the episode down. Mind you, we say calming presence, that is until the name Russell Wilson is uttered, then calming presence probably isn't the most appropriate title.

A former Rugby player, Josh knows exactly what perfect tackling looks like, therefore as not only a Co-Host, but a friend and crucially a die-hard 12, we should probably start conducting regular blood pressure checks during the regular season on him.
