Goalhanger announces new women’s football podcast

Goalhanger today announces The Rest Is Football: Daly Brightness, a new show hosted by Lionesses legends and close friends Millie Bright and Rachel Daly.

The twice-weekly podcast launches on Tuesday 15th April.

This is a deep dive into the heart of women's football. Millie and Rachel – two legends of the game – bring their unmatched access and analysis to the mic. Together they offer a fresh, incisive look at the game, covering the action on the pitch and the outside forces shaping it.

Every Tuesday, listeners can expect lively debates, off-the-cuff stories and big-name guests, plus real talk on everything from groundbreaking policies to viral social media moments. On Thursdays, Millie and Rachel will get their community involved with a Q&A episode, offering listeners a chance to send in questions and dilemmas, creating a space for wider lifestyle and cultural discussions.

The Rest Is Football: Daly Brightness is powered by a genuine friendship built over years of playing at the highest level. The show blends sharp tactical analysis with authentic, behind-the-scenes stories from their careers and personal experiences.

Episodes will also deep dive into the cultural shifts changing women's football today. Millie and Rachel's insider status brings genuine value as they offer reactions to big matches from Chelsea vs Liverpool at the FA Cup semi final to Chelsea vs Barcelona's Champions League game.

Through these conversations, they confront the professional realities and personal challenges that shape today's women's game, often overlooked in mainstream coverage.

The series is produced by Goalhanger, the UK's largest independent podcast group and the biggest outside the United States, co-founded by Gary Lineker in January 2022.

Fun and unfiltered, Millie and Rachel will make listeners feel like they're part of the conversation. The Rest Is Football: Daly Brightness is the beautiful game, brilliantly unpacked by best mates who live it.

The Rest Is Football: Daly Brightness will be available on all podcast platforms and YouTube from Tuesday 15th April 2025.

Millie Bright says: "Starting a podcast with my best friend is unreal... Every day, Rachel and I live and breathe football and make each other laugh. We want to bring those together on the show, along with proper behind-the-scenes insights. We can't wait to get started."

Rachel Daly added: "Me and Millie never stop talking, so this show has been a long time coming... The women's game has changed so much since we started playing – from the big conversations to the hilarious moments, there's so much to get into."

Gary Lineker, co-founder of Goalhanger, commented: "Millie and Rachel aren’t just top class players — they’re brilliant behind the mic as well. We're chuffed to have them on board for a show we know fans are going to love. With their experience, sharp understanding of the game, and great sense of humour, The Rest Is Football: Daly Brightness is set to be a cracking listen — full of insight, heart, and plenty of banter."
