The Overlap episodes

  • Episode 198: Biomechanics

    Between the Champions League, the Prem, and La Liga all in action over the last few days, we had to divvy things up. No league talk on this week's episode, but we go over all of the Ro16 matches in the Champions League and who the favorites to go one step further might be!

  • Episode 197: The Red Wedding

    What did we witness on Sunday? Was it real? Was it a simulation? After a day of processing, we've come to the conclusion that it REALLY DID HAPPEN! From the North West derby, Arsenal's late dramatics, and a thumping win for Atletico Madrid over Sevilla, there was almost too much to go over this week. But, really, there's never too much footy.

  • Episode 196: Let 'em Cook

    While European competition waits in the wake, this past weekend still featured a multitude of big games. From United's first trophy win in over 5 years to what was actually a somewhat boring (and not uncommonly boring) Madrid Derby, we go over it all! Stay tuned until the end for an Elyas-induced Barcelona rant!


    P.S. Enjoy the uncut intro :)

  • Episode 195: Those European Nights

    SO much happened this week in European competition for Spanish teams, both big and small! On this week's La Liga specific episode, we cover the historic win for Real Madrid at Anfield, Barcelona getting knocked out of Europe for the 4th time in a little over a year, and some of the ups and downs going on at Sevilla and Valencia.

  • Episode 194: A Statistical Story

    This week, we go over all the fun events in the Premier League including United looking like a team under Sir Alex Ferguson, Liverpool picking up points for what feels like the first time in forever, Chelsea's continued woes, and some big title race implications! BONUS: A separate La Liga episode will be out later this week after the Champions League/Europa League games!

  • Episode 193: Sports Are Silly

    Look, we're still reeling from the SuperBowl loss, but we found enough energy to get together and record. Just for all of you. Just to name a few topics this week, we touch on the title race in the Premier League between Arsenal and Manchester City (including a preview of Wednesday's match), Spurs disappointing showing against Leicester, a fantastic match up in Celta Vigo vs Atletico, a surprising goal scoring record from Pedri. Plus, European football sort of snuck up on us this week.

    Oh, and Rheon somehow found a way to present his best impression of revisionist history.

  • Episode 192: The Final Countdown

    With the January transfer window wrapping up today, we thought, what more fitting episode to do than a transfer round up one (of course, we sprinkled in some analysis from this past weekend's set of league and cup games). From Cancelo to Bryan Gil, we go over all the real and possibly real news. By the time you're listening to this, deadline day may be wrapped up, but the crazy rumors are guaranteed to continue past this week.

  • Episode 191: Iso Football

    With league games, cup games, and even a USMNT international friendly, we go through a LOT on this week's episode! Unfortunately, we both spent time watching Liverpool play Chelsea last weekend, but were at least redeemed by watching high quality football as Arsenal went on to beat United. Over in La Liga, the Copa Del Rey games took precedence for most of the top teams in Spain and there are a LOT of narratives there too.

  • Episode 190: MONEY

    The title might not be self-explanatory, but I promise if you get through the first few minutes, you'll understand. We're BACK this week talking all the big games across England and Spain from the NLD Derby, the Manchester Derby, El Clasico, and much, much more! Of course, we have to highlight the teams on the up and the down, from Sevilla, Chelsea, Atletico, and Liverpool. So. Much. Football.

  • Episode 189: This Isn't Football Manager

    Last week was weeeeeeeird with so many games, different competitions, and what felt like at least 2 games a day for the whole weekday. BUT, we go over it all on this week's episode covering everything from last weekend's 0-0 draw between Arsenal and Newcastle, a few very disappointing teams now (sorry Chelsea fans, Rheon is hurting with you), and a look ahead towards the Manchester Derby and North London Derby next weekend. We'll be back talking La Liga very soon with Real Madrid dropping points and Barcelona fully in control of their own destiny in the league.
