Funny or sporty podcasts for young teens?

[ThumbTowers]

Do these exist? My son is a football fan and listens to the Red Devils podcast. He loves comedy (Bob Mortimer etc). He's not a fan of reading books so would love to find ways he can entertain himself that does't involve gaming. A lot of the comedy podcasts I know of have a lot of swearing etc. Don't know of any other football related podcasts. He's 14. Thanks!

Try My Mate's A Footballer. Comedy and football. BBC so should be low on swearing. Seems to have stopped now though but still, looks like a year of episodes (52).

Has he tried any audio books? Terry Pratchett?

Thank you, that sounds like a good one to try. He doesn't want to try audio books. But I'm thinking that the idea might grow on him if he starts to enjoy podcasts....

no such thing as a fish

not sporty but very funny. ocassionally a bit rude

crowd science is one my teens enjoy as well.

If you're still trying to convince him to enjoy a podcast then stick to more chatty stuff. Technically not podcasts, but the BBC Sounds has plenty of comedy. E.g. The Infinite Monkey Cage. Check whether Mark Steel's In Town has an episode on where you live. I'm not sure whether he'd find My Teenage Diary cringey or funny 😅

Maybe eventually a dramatisation of a book? E.g. Wyrd Sisters https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/b007jl80

Has he listened to Athletico Mince? My DS's (mid 20's) love it. It's Bob Mortimer so probably OK for a 14 year old. I haven't listened though so check first.
