Episode 41 - Hearts of Glory, Lest We Forget

This week we welcome historian and author Jack Alexander and folk singer-songwriter Craig Herbertson to discuss Hearts' rich history and the enduring legacy of McCrae’s Battalion. We discuss Jack Alexander's groundbreaking historical research to Craig Herbertson's moving tribute Hearts of Glory as we discuss the story of the Hearts men who went to war together and the efforts to keep their memory alive.

Episode 40 - No Pain No Heart of Midlothian

A season that brought us closer to those we watched the game with. A season that made us love our club even more. A season where we all believed. This will be the final Hearts on Sleeves episode of the season 2025-26. What a ride it has been. Thanks to everyone who joined us along the way.

Episode 39 - They Travelled Far, By Plane and Car

This week we talk to two jambos who, alongside their Hearts obsessed daughter, made a 7000 mile round trip so that they could visit Tynecastle for the first time to see the jambos take on Rangers. We talk to them about their experience of the game, the atmosphere and, of course, the fans.

Episode 38 - While the Chief, Shows Red Cards in Leith

Spend just over and hour and a half of your day listening to 4 men get it right up the wee team.

Episode 37 - Big Team, Big Week

It's derby week and probably the most important one since 2012. Thankfully, the Hearts on Sleeves guys are all totally chill and in no way anxious about it at all. There's transfer / pre-contract chat, a quiz and of course a a preview to the big game against the wee team.

Episode 36 - Split Happens

Jamie, Adam and John return to discuss the lows of Livi and the merits against Motherwell. We also have the usual quiz before discussing the split fixtures.

Episode 35 - Hearts on Standard Sleeves

We are joined this week by Craig Cairns from Hearts Standard as we reflect on the season so far and what is still to come. We test his knowledge, as well as our own, with our quizzes and look ahead to a trip to Almondvale.

Episode 34 - Forever 20 and Forever in Our Hearts

This week Adam, Trunter and Jamie are joined by fellow jambo, Phil Wanless. In 2021, at the age of just 20, his son Fraser tragically took his own life. We talk to Phil about his journey, look back to some memories and stories of Fraser and Hearts as well as discussing finding ways to improve mind health for both the younger and older generation. For Fraser Wanless 2000 - 2021 #fraserwanlessforever20

Episode 33 - A Week To Make The Bum Squeak

So, it wasn't a great 90 minutes at Rugby Park. But still all to play for and Jamie, Adam and Trunter take stock as they reflect on the loss to Killie and look forward to the game against Dundee back at Tynecastle on Saturday.

Episode 32 - The Game from the Goal Line

This week we are joined by Mark Weir: a Jambo and the goalie / vice-captain of Edinburgh's second biggest team, Edinburgh City. We get inside the mind and gloves of what it is like being a goalkeeper. We discuss what it takes to being the last line of defence and where one save can win a game and one mistake can cost it. We also reflect on some career highlights, have a quiz and look ahead to the Killie game.
