On an episode of Going Deutsch that is fashionably late (or the same time I normally upload, depending on viewpoint), the Bundesliga gets underway for 2025/26. Bayern start the league off with a 6-0 demolishing of Leipzig, Dortmund blow a two-goal lead away at St. Pauli thanks to a red card, and Erik Ten Hag starts the league campaign with a Bayer Leverkusen defeat to Hoffenheim. In the Zweite, there is plenty of reason for concern for Nürnberg, Kaiserslautern, and Hertha after poor results. Also on the pod: could Duisberg do an Elversberg, the Kaktor des Monats music, and which Bundesliga manager could be the latest fashion icon.
