This Week in Wrexham returns as Rog sits down with Wrexham goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo to break down what it's like getting pre-game dap ups from owner Ryan Reynolds, what was going through his mind during his penalty-save heroics versus Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup, and how manager Phil Parkinson uses the club's history as a motivational tactic. Plus, Arthur explains why he rarely celebrates, and what tactics he uses to always stay so calm, cool, and collected. This Week in Wrexham is presented by our great friends of the pod STōK Cold Brew Coffee.
