Episode 36 of The Football Misfits Podcast has the first team of Ronny, Spencer, and LV chatting about West Ham's prospects for the Premier League top four (with Spencer's displeasure with that notion) and the drama surrounding Trent Alexander-Arnold's selection, or lack thereof, to the England national team. The good brothers also discuss the matches in the UEFA Champions League and some of the moments that highlighted this set of first-leg fixtures. They also share their thoughts on some of the league action over the weekend; including Jose Mourinho's political spin, El Clasico under a downpour, and Atletico Madrid appearing to give up on the league title. The Misfits conclude this episode by paying a tribute to Earl "DMX" Simmons, who passed away on Friday afternoon.
