We finally did it! After five years of plotting, leveraging, and extreme Arsenal giddiness, we landed an absolute legend. Yes, Jon is honoring Dave’s obsession (who wore a full Arsenal kit, naturally), as we have the legendary Lee Dixon joining Dadville!
We dive deep into his legendary career, which started with his humble beginnings as a tiny striker whose permanent shift to right back only happened because a teammate got the flu. Lee shares gold on the "geography teacher" Arsène Wenger, the manager’s strategic "stretch war," and the hilarious confrontation with an angry Manchester United window cleaner during a team walk.
Dixon explains why he refuses to ever use the nickname of his rival and recalls the emotional final games, including the moment Tony Adams finally gave him an unforgettable compliment. He reveals the career-long anxiety of waiting to be "found out" and the utter terror of that Monday morning after Wenger delivered the final, perfect line: "Lee, it is time". This episode is five years in the making—and worth every minute!
