Peter Crouch receives 'best podcast gift' ever from Liverpool FC fan who quit his job

An art lover who gave up his mundane job as a shoe shop assistant to pursue his unusual passion for novelty boardgames has had his craftwork praised by former Liverpool FC striker Peter Crouch.

Jay Reavy, 35, from Wallasey, is the creator of "Guess Youniverse", a spin on the "Guess Who?" game which includes hand-drawn caricatures of customers' friends, family or workmates.
