Robert & Shayna celebrate the life and legacy of Chris Kamara - the footballer, manager, and broadcaster whose energy, humour, and humility have made him one of Britain’s most beloved figures. From his days as a tough-tackling midfielder to becoming one of the few Black managers in English football, Kammy’s journey is one of talent, perseverance, and undeniable charm.

The episode looks back at how Chris became a national treasure, breaking barriers on and off the pitch, and how his infectious personality turned him into one of TV’s most recognisable and uplifting voices. Robert & Shayna also reflect on his openness about living with apraxia of speech - a diagnosis that revealed the same resilience, courage, and optimism that have defined his entire career.

Through stories of football, family, and faith, they explore how Chris Kamara has inspired generations - not just through sport, but through his honesty, laughter, and determination to keep moving forward.

Expect a heartfelt conversation about representation in football, overcoming adversity, and the joy of doing what you love.
