WombleWorld, the number one AFC Wimbledon Substack, is excited to announce the launch of The WombleWorld Audio Podcast (TWWAP), a weekly podcast covering AFC Wimbledon, the Dons Trust, and the wider experience of supporting this football club.
TWWAP will be hosted by Wesley Wombleton, Founder and Editor of WombleWorld. Wombleton will be joined each week by a co-host whose identity WombleWorld is not yet in a position to confirm.
WombleWorld can confirm that the co-host is a member of the Dons Trust and a businessman of some standing. He has been close to this club for many years and has a perspective on it that has not previously been made public.
“There are reasons we are not naming him today. Partly because he is still checking the Code of Conduct to see if he can do this. Mainly to build suspense. Listeners will understand when they find out who it is. I would ask that people speculate.”
Episodes will run to approximately forty-five to fifty minutes and will follow a consistent structure: a review of the previous fixture, a light touch governance segment, listener correspondence, a game, followed by Wesley’s closing thoughts.
Our ambition for TWWAP is to become a significant player in the market of unofficial podcasts for AFC Wimbledon. Recording takes place using the highest quality audio equipment available, because WombleWorld fans expect nothing less.
WW+ EARLY ACCESS
WW+ members will receive Episode One before general release very soon. WombleWorld has asked those members to provide candid feedback on the format, the running order, the balance between hosts, and the overall listening experience.
“We are not going to pretend the first episode is perfect,” said Wombleton. “It is a new format and we would rather hear what is wrong from the people who read us every week than from everybody else afterwards. We are asking WW+ members to be critical friends and tell us honestly whether this works. If the answer is that it does not, we want to know that too, and we will act on it.”
General release will follow, and we will share the Spotify link far and wide.
WombleWorld
For the avoidance of doubt, WombleWorld is not affiliated with The Wombles in any way. No Wombles contribute to WombleWorld in any capacity, and none were harmed or even considered in its production. Any use of “Womble” refers to AFC Wimbledon and the fans thereof.
I love podcast and I love the wombles - what a time to be alive!
