99. The Kernow Football Alliance
For our last podcast of 2025, we're joined by co-founder of the Kernow Football Alliance, Jason Heaton. Like other Celtic Nations who have formed national teams, Kernow are the representative national team of Cornwall. Sadly though, unlike Alba, Ellan Vannin or other language-centred nations, Kernow aren't able to use their language as a central philosophy to their football. Instead, they choose to do their talking on the pitch to give Cornish people empowerment, inspiration and to raise awareness of Cornish culture and language throughout the world.
Our podcast will return on 9 February 2026. We would like to thank all of the guests, supporters and listeners who have played a part in making the podcast so brilliant in 2025.
We've got lots planned for 2026. See you all then.
