Download Alastair Campbell - Diego and Me!

Ever heard the story about how Alastair Campbell found himself playing football with Diego Maradona?

In a fantastic episode, former Downing Street Press Secretary and top podcaster himself Alastair Campbell joins Craig and Amy to chat about leadership. What we didn't expect was to hear how he shared a pitch with arguably the greatest footballer that ever lived, how he was asked to give a team talk to the British Lions Rugby team and he reveals how he broke some bones as a child.

CONTAINS SOME STRONG LANGUAGE
