A Celtic State of Mind was named as the UK's Best Football Podcast at the prestigious Football Blogging Awards.

In this latest episode, Paul John Dykes chats to former player Gerry Farrell, who turned out for a host of clubs including Dumbarton, Dunfermline, Ross County and Airdrie.

Gerry speaks honestly about suffering depression and how he played at a time when there was a gambling "epidemic" in Scottish football. Gerry became addicted to gambling and then turned to drug-dealing after his career ended... this quickly led to a cocaine addiction and conviction for dealing in Class A drugs. Gerry opens up in the hope that his words can help others who may be going through similar struggles in life.

A Celtic State of Mind has gone from strength-to-strength over the last couple of years, and there are many more guests lined up in the weeks ahead from the world of sport, music, film, art, broadcasting, literature and politics.
