The Overlap ·

2020/12/15

You'll understand the title once you get through the podcast. BUT, in this week's Premier League pod, we invited an old coach and advisor onto the show to talk about Liverpool's upcoming game with Spurs. Later on, we go over some of the results from this past weekend including why watching the Manchester Derby was just painful.

Episode 82: The End Really is Near

The Overlap ·

2020/12/11

On the La Liga portion of this week's pod, we go over how Zidane has gone from the chopping block 10 days ago to potential Madrid hero. Also, once again, Atléti show how difficult it is to beat them and we preview this upcoming weekend's Madrid Derby! Can't believe we had to talk about this too, but we have to have the discussion: what's going on with Messi?

Episode 81: Machiavelli Or Mourinho?

The Overlap ·

2020/12/09

I think the title says it all really. WHAT did we watch during this past weekend's NLD? Only the former philosophers of the world can tell us. In other news, Rheon FINALLY gets on the Chelsea-might-win-this-thing train Elyas highlights how Arsenal and Manchester United can actually improve.

The Overlap ·

2020/12/04

On the La Liga portion of the pod, we go over the much anticipated Real Sociedad and Villareal matchup from this past weekend, why Atleti are genuine favorites for the title, and why Real Madrid could see a coaching change sooner rather than later (BTW, Pochettino is still free).

Episode 79: Two Parts To The Delusion

The Overlap ·

2020/12/02

This week, we decided to focus a bit more on Arsenal and Tottenham given their polarizing performances at the weekend and the NLD coming up this weekend. It may or may not have been a mistake to bring on two delusional guests to share their POV on Arsenal and Spurs, respectively, but you decide.

Episode 78: Barça & Real Underwhelm

The Overlap ·

2020/11/27

Barcelona and Real Madrid continue to underwhelm against good opposition this past weekend in La Liga, so, of course, we have to give them a ton of flack. Also, not so quietly, Real Sociedad are on a tear at the top of La Liga. Disclaimer: We started recording this right after learning the news that Diego Maradona has passed away. We spend the first few minutes talking about the legend himself.

Episode 77: Are Spurs...Good?

The Overlap ·

2020/11/25

For any Spurs fans listening to this, please don't be incessantly pushing the narrative that Spurs are going to win the league. Yes, there's a chance, but let's take it easy. Meanwhile, Chelsea and Liverpool continue their strong form while Arsenal need to sort it out. Oh, we don't even know what to think of Manchester United at this point.

Episode 76: Atleti vs Barca & City vs Spurs

The Overlap ·

2020/11/20

We're celebrating the fact that there are no more international breaks with a little preview of the Atletico Madrid vs Barcelona game on Saturday evening as well as City vs Spurs on Saturday afternoon. We also spend a few minutes talking about the Spain vs Germany result and the USMNT's recent success. Oh, and we also have a special guest joining us for the City vs Spurs preview. Hint: he is one of the 4 Manchester City fans that live outside of Manchester AND he's genetically responsible for

Episode 75: The Inverted Top Four in Spain

The Overlap ·

2020/11/14

In a normal world (that just feels funny to type at this point), maybe Real Madrid or Barcelona would be top of the table in La Liga at this point, but that is pretty far from the truth. Real Sociedad and Villarreal continue to impress, while Real Madrid stutter near the top and Barcelona stay relatively inconsistent.

Episode 74: Chelsea Are Title Contenders

The Overlap ·

2020/11/11

We've gone back and forth in the last few weeks about who could challenge Liverpool for the title and we may be coming to a consensus. Also, Southampton and Aston Villa continue to impress while Leeds and Arsenal...well, not so much.

Episode 73: A Wide Open Premier League

The Overlap ·

2020/11/04

Rheon and I give up. We have no idea who's going to win the Premier League this season. The season is back to being drunk.

Episode 72: Are Barcelona...Good?

The Overlap ·

2020/10/30

Between an El Clasico loss, the sacking of Bartomeu, and a dominant performance away at Juventus, it's been a WEEK for Barcelona fans. Real Madrid fans look away in horror after another poor result in the Champions League this week while Atleti is probably feeling pretty good about themselves right about now. We cover it all in this week's La Liga episode!

Episode 71: Two Teams Without Identities

The Overlap ·

2020/10/28

After relatively calm weekend in the Premier League, for two teams it was almost...too calm. The most boring game in Europe combined with a less than outlandish array of results proved to be shockingly...sobering.

Episode 70: Is There A Top Team In La Liga?

The Overlap ·

2020/10/23

Three out of the four top teams in La Liga lost this weekend. And even the team that won looked abysmal. So, is there even a top team in La Liga? We also preview this weekend's El Clasico match up!

Episode 69: One Too Many Vodka Crans

The Overlap ·

2020/10/21

The Premier League is drunk. And, honestly, at this point, so are we. We go over Pickford's horrendous challenge, the worst team in London (read: still Tottenham), and Aston Villa's come up in this week's pod.

Episode 68: Project Big Picture & Champions League...

The Overlap ·

2020/10/14

So, capitalism has apparently riddled the minds of the Top 6 clubs in England. Also, who came up with these Project names? Meanwhile, this week we also go over the tasty Champions League ties coming up over the next several weeks in the group stages.

Episode 67: Simeone, We Have A Bone To Pick

The Overlap ·

2020/10/10

So, La Liga had another relatively dramaless weekend. God football, but no drama. That was until, of course, the vote of no confidence against the Barcelona board was confirmed. We break down all the latest in La Liga, including Barcelona's draw with Sevilla and Atlético going peak Simeone.

Episode 66: Marcelo Bielsa Is Bernie Sanders

The Overlap ·

2020/10/07

With a weekend filled with drama, shock results, and more red-card controversy, you'd think we'd name this podcast something else. But, NOPE. Rheon has a new theory. Elyas continually craps all over United's hopes and dreams. Spurs did a (good) thing. Oh, and Liverpool just...I don't even know. We go over ALL of that this week.

Episode 65: A Shockingly Dramaless La Liga Weekend

The Overlap ·

2020/10/02

So, the title says it all, but that isn't to say that the ~narratives~ were not in full swing this weekend. Barça putting up an impressive first half performance against Villarreal, Atleti showing that they are now capable of actually scoring goals, and Real Madrid struggling to kick into 5th gear - we recap it all.

Episode 64: Liverpool Are Built Different & Handballs...

The Overlap ·

2020/09/30

Liverpool showed this weekend why they won the league last season ahead of Manchester City, but honestly that wasn't even the biggest storyline. More handball (not VAR, we should note) controversy was the big debate in England this week and we cover it all on this week's podcast for the Premier League.
