Turns out those articles may not have been fantasies and lies after all. And needless to say, I have fired up the Peter Welpton bat-signal to get some help processing all of this.

Peter is back! Because there have definitely not been enough podcasts this week about Man Utd being bad. But this one also includes stadium chat, seagull acrobatics and the many crimes of Tomas Repka.

Well that was fun wasn't it? The Big Game was dramatic and full of incident. Also, Spurs are better, Nicolas Jackson is scoring goals, West Ham are strange, and Man Utd do the opposite of their usual thing.

Arsenal's big derby win, Everton falling down again, long shots are good actaully, and Rashford's weird PR.

Peter returns to help dissect and digest the weekend's PL action.

Arsenal solid, Spurs relieved, Wolves routed and Brighton good. Also, the combine harvester of doom scores a very un-Pep-like hat-trick.

Chelsea continue to mystify, Spurs fall down in a very familiar way, other games just sorta happen.

It's that time of the year: The very very big season preview pod! Peter returns to help me out. We look at every team, and make a quick detour to the wacky zone at the end...

Arne Slot is in at Liverpool and Erik ten Hag is still in charge of Manchester United, so I've brought in the big Dutch brain of Michiel Jongsma to discuss his follicly challenged compatriots. And some other stuff.

At least that's what football seemed to be thinking, anyway. Spain are the European Champions, and deservedly so.

England are, somehow, in the final of Euro 2024. Underwhelming performances and late goals, are they Italy in disguise?

Hark and behold! Spain dismantle Didier Deschamps' dismal doomsday device! Kate Mason joins and adds some chaotic energy to the pod.

England are in the semis! Still not exactly good, but they were definitely less bad. And in the distance we hear the clip-clop of clogs as the Dutch march on.

Spain knock out hosts Germany after the latter fair to find an extra gear. France and Portugal serve up a pile of hot garbage, but France's tactic of not scoring goals continues to pay off.

The Euros are fun again! The xF was way up, with the Netherlands playing well and Austria - Turkey living up to expectations. Turkish football enjoyer Andy Brassell joins to help make sense of it all - and look ahead to the Quater-finals.

France and Portugal fail to impress yet manage to progress. And Cristiano Ronaldo, it's definitely getting weird.

England scrape by Slovakia. If the plan is to make the rest of Europe think they're very bad, the plan is going well. Meanwhile, Spain are brilliant and Georgia are out.

Germany stay in the race, Italy sink without a trace.

Pod favorite Peter Welpton returns to discuss the group stage and where it all goes from here. We wrestle a terrible line and some curious audio problems, but in the end it's mostly fine.

Georgia get their moment but Ukraine don't - even though Belgium are kinda bad.

France put themselves in trouble, England put us all to sleep. How about those Austrians though?

Italy go full Italy, and Spain - Albania just kinda happened. What did we learn?

Scotland are out, Germany top the group, but what we really care about is the fact that THE CURSE HAS BEEN LIFTED!

Yes, it happened again. Also: The Czechs continue to be Scandinavians in disguise, Turkey unlock themselves, and Belgium actually kicked the ball into the goal.
