Arsenal, Jelly Roll, and Anaconda

About this episode

The episode discusses Arsenal's defeat in the League Cup Final and its implications, the new FIFA World Cup song, and reviews of recent films watched by Eddie.

Manchester City beat Arsenal in the League Cup Final, but will Arsenal’s defeat have any impact on how they approach the remainder of the Premier League season, the Champions League, or the FA Cup? Eddie thinks the Premier League is already a foregone conclusion, but Guardiola exposed some weaknesses that will prove to be their undoing in the Champions League and FA Cup. The official song for the 2026 FIFA World Cup was released, but does it stand up to classics from the likes of Ricky Martin and Shakira? The Fanatics Flag Football tournament took place over the weekend, but has it changed what Frank thinks Team USA should do heading into the 2026 Olympics? And Eddie watched ’The Peaky Blinders’ movie, ’Greenland 2’, and ’Anaconda’, but which did he enjoy the most? The answer might surprise you...
