Nick and Critty kick back this week, exhausted from the season, the two massive tournaments, and now the Olympic games too!

We let loose, kick back, talk a little shit, throw Liverpool under the bus, talk about the cheap clubs in Europe who have a lot money, but who won't spend on players they desperately need. 

Congrats to United, Bayern, BVB, Arsenal, Juve and Inter among others, who are getting their business done! 

A quick analysis of the Euro 2024 final as well as the Copa America final and the boys turn the lights off until next week! 

If you like it fun, easy, and relaxed, this is THE show for you. We even have a "Fat Brock Lesnar" sighting in Park Circle as we record the pod. He is headed to the bearded Axe too, appropriate setting for this lumberjack!

Never a dull moment in the Basement!
