Episode 56: The FM/Life Balance

This week Ed and George are joined by Mathias, and everyone’s not too shabby. Mathias joins from sunny Colorado, and they have a little discussion about some real life football.

The question of the week this week revolves around Euro 2016. Now the tournament’s coming to an end, we want to know which player’s abilities should be upgraded and downgraded because of their performance in the tournament.

Episode 54: Brexit at Tiffany’s

This week Ed and George are a bit sad because they can’t watch any football. And we might be making the whole thing a bit of a metaphor for a certain Brexit referendum.

We’re edging even closer to the big 50. Ed doesn’t know how to set up his new microphone, and for some reason there isn’t any music at the start of this episode.

This week we do have a guest, despite what George might have said. We’re joined by Mark North who reinvents a tradition that we’ve all definitely been missing. He’s the chairman of United London FC, the world’s first manager-less football club.
