The new weekly series will see breakfast presenter Ewen Cameron team up with STV Sport journalist Ronnie Charters to dive into all the big talking points from the Scottish football weekend.
Ewen will be reunited with his long-time friend Ronnie, whose sharp analysis and mischievous streak promise lively debate and plenty of laughs.
Producer Callum Bell will keep the pair in line as they review the weekend’s games, discuss controversial referee decisions, and look ahead to upcoming fixtures.
Ewen said: “Every Monday morning, football fans across Scotland wonder what I thought of that shocking tackle at the weekend. Well, wonder no more – just check your podcast feed! I’m buzzing to join Ronnie for some no-holds-barred commentary on the game we all love.”
Ronnie added: “Scottish football is the gift that keeps on giving, and this podcast will be the place for a laugh and some healthy debate at the start of the week. Feel free to tell Ewen how rotten his opinions are – in fact, it’s encouraged!”
The STV Radio Football Show launches on Monday 27 October and will be available weekly on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and STV Player, with highlights shared across STV Radio’s social channels. The podcast is sponsored by CR Smith.

Heart 80s Breakfast presenter Simon Beale has shared that he is recovering at home after suffering a major heart attack three weeks ago.

Simon revealed that the incident happened while walking his dog, describing it as a “massive shock” after being rushed to hospital and undergoing emergency surgery to fit two stents in a completely blocked artery.
He said: “Within a couple of hours, I’d had two stents fitted in the main artery at the front of my heart, which was completely blocked. I’d gone from a normal Monday to being blue-lighted in an ambulance, having life-saving surgery and starting the long road to recovery.”
Simon, who is 53, praised the NHS for their care, adding: “The NHS were phenomenal. The care I received was exceptional and I am beyond thankful to every doctor, nurse, consultant, specialist and hospital worker who looked after me for 8 nights. They saved my life. They are true heroes.”
He also thanked his family, friends and colleagues at Heart and Global for their kindness and support during his recovery.
Now back at home, Simon says he is adjusting to a new routine and medication while taking things one day at a time. “I’ve still got a way to go, but I am on the mend and slowly making progress, hoping to be back at work soon,” he said.
Listeners and colleagues from across the radio industry have been sending messages of love and support, wishing him a full and speedy recovery.
Jamie Theakston, commenting on a photo of Simon in hospital, asked if he was wired up to RCS Zetta, whilst Pat Sharp, who has been covering the show, said “we love you Simon, see you back at work soon”.
Toby Anstis added “we miss you loads si” and Kat Shoob said: “Oh Simon!!! Sending loads of love. You poor thing. So scary. Glad you’re doing alright xx.”
Jonny Meah is currently listed on the Heart 80s schedule as covering Breakfast.
