Do you want to be a pro?

Then let's hear your story.

Great - hop on the JNM Player Podcast. It's the show where we sit down with footballers chasing a professional career and talk honestly about what it actually takes: the setbacks, the trials that didn't go your way, the grind nobody posts about.

If you're in the middle of that fight right now, your story is worth telling - and it might be exactly what another player in your position needs to hear.

Hosted by Josh & Nathan Miles, founders of JNM Football.

Why come on

This isn't a highlight reel. It's your real story.

No script, no fluff. Just an honest conversation about your journey - the wins, the setbacks, and where you're trying to go next.

🎙️

Tell your story, unfiltered

Not a highlight reel - a real conversation about what your journey has actually looked like, in your own words.

📣

Get in front of the JNM audience

Your episode gets shared across JNM's channels, plus clips cut for social - put your name and your journey in front of players, and the wider football community, who follow the show.

🤝

Build your network

A direct line to the JNM team and the wider community of players who've featured on the show - people chasing the same thing you are.

💡

Help the next player

The episodes where guests talk honestly about the low points are usually the ones that help someone else the most. Yours could be that episode.

Honest heads-up

This works best for the right guest.

We can't feature everyone who applies. Here's what tends to make a great episode.

Probably not right now
✕ Not currently playing or actively pursuing a football career
✕ Not comfortable discussing setbacks or challenges openly
✕ Looking for pure self-promotion rather than a real conversation
A great fit
✓ Currently playing or recently pursuing a pro / semi-pro path
✓ Willing to talk honestly about setbacks, not just highlights
✓ Can commit 45-60 minutes to record when we confirm a slot

Questions

Frequently asked.

Do I need to already be semi-pro or pro to apply? +
No. We feature players at different stages - grassroots, amateur, semi-pro, and players who've had a taste of pro football and are fighting to get back. What matters most is that you're actively pursuing it and willing to talk honestly about it.
Is there any cost to appear? +
No. Appearing on the podcast is completely free. We're not selling anything on the episode - it's a conversation, not a pitch.
How long does recording take? +
Most episodes run 45-60 minutes. We publish the full conversation plus shorter clips for social, so the parts that resonate most reach a wider audience.
Does appearing on the podcast affect my chances with JNM's trial programme? +
The podcast is a separate thing from our player placement programme - appearing on the show doesn't guarantee a trial, and applying for a trial doesn't guarantee a podcast slot. They're evaluated independently.
How will I know if I've been selected? +
We read every application personally. If your story looks like a fit for an upcoming episode, we'll reach out by email or phone to arrange a recording date.
