Pete and Matt. Premier League champions. Champions League finalists. Saturday in Budapest. This is the last before the whistle of the season and the boys are floating.

Here's what's inside:

🔥 Hottest of Takes — Matt's is simple and beautiful: the season is already complete, Saturday is a free hit. Pete's take is about what Pep Guardiola leaving actually means for Manchester City — and he thinks we might be about to watch something unravel

🌍 The Global Scenes — Uganda, Nairobi, Brooklyn, London. Two men who have spent four days on their phones trying to process what Arsenal means to people and why it goes so far beyond football

🏆 Arteta — Manager of the Season, and Then Some — Pete makes the full-throated case. From Cedric Soares on a five-year deal to this. Matt adds the Noel Gallagher and Pep anecdote that reframes everything you think you know about how elite preparation works

🤝 The Odegaard Bridge — a small moment from title night that caught Pete's eye. He thinks it means something. Matt agrees

💪 Intensity — Arteta's One Weakness — an honest assessment of the near-miss this season and what has to change for next year. Keep four players fit for 25% more games and it's a 90-point season. No one touches that

🎯 The Final — why Pete is not afraid of PSG. Why the fear narrative is misguided. And why this group has earned the right to walk out in Budapest with total belief

Jacob is joined by James Benge — beat reporter, CBS contributor, and one of the most measured voices covering Arsenal week to week — for a Dugout that goes beyond the scoreline and into the bones of what this club is becoming.

Here's what's inside:

🔥 Hottest of Takes — James opens with a take so spicy it might have laws changed: if nothing shifts in the next five years, people will conclude Arsenal broke football. Jacob has thoughts on what Chelsea fans in 2005 can teach us all about not caring

🧠 The Arteta Perception Flip — James makes the case that winning a Premier League and a Champions League in the same season doesn't just change how fans feel — it completely rewrites how the entire football world sees Arteta. And James has the receipts from the continent

😤 Odegaard — Scapegoated? — James says what a lot of people won't. He's spoken to people around the club. The picture that emerges is more complicated and more sympathetic than the fan discourse this season would suggest

💸 Havertz and Odegaard — What Happens This Summer? — James won't say either are definitely staying or definitely going. But he outlines the scenario in which Bayern make a call about one of them, and why Arsenal's position is more nuanced than a simple yes or no

🏆 Tuesday Night — Book The Day Off Wednesday — James calls it. He thinks Arsenal win the league on Tuesday night at Bournemouth. He explains why Bournemouth fancy it, why City are vulnerable, and why Palace away might be the most nerve-shredding 90 minutes if it comes to that

Pete and Jacob grab an early morning session because Pete's off to London, Jacob's off to Benidorm, and there's a title to win. Two games to go. One Champions League final. The stars are aligning.

Here's what's inside:

🔥 Hottest of Takes — Jacob makes the tactical case for giving the captain back his place in the starting XI, and he's got a midfield combination in mind that could unlock everything going into the final. Pete's take on PGMOL will divide opinion — he thinks they deserve more credit than they're getting. Jacob respectfully pushes back

👕 The Shirt Guy — someone rocked up near West Ham with "Champions" printed on an Arsenal shirt. Pete and Jacob aren't buying it. Not the shirt, not the story, not the source

🗓️ The Title Could Be Won On Tuesday Night — Bournemouth vs City. Pete maps out exactly when and how Arsenal could be crowned champions before they even kick a ball. He wants everyone in the pub

⚔️ Myles vs Gyökeres — The Selling Debate — two players whose form has picked up at the right time. Jacob makes a distinction that cuts right to the heart of what kind of summer Arsenal need to have

🧱 Gabriel — The Numbers — Pete pulls up data on blocks, clearances and percentiles that puts Gabriel's season into a completely different context. Jacob compares him to the Adams and Bould era and means it as the highest possible compliment

🎂 1,000 Episodes — it slipped in at the end but it deserves to be said: AOP has hit a thousand podcasts. Thank you for being part of it
