We review week 3 and week 4. Answer a barrage of questions from a new fan and talk a bit about the possibility of more watch parties

In this episode we get some good listener questions out of the way, including the status of a Storm all you can eat buffet and more importantly an update on the injury situation - which is a mixed bag of news, from the seriously bad to the cautiously optimistic.

Week 1 came and went and we got more blowouts than anticipated. Was that week 1 jitters or has the league's expected parity been over exaggerated?

EIther way, Nordic Storm remains undefeated at home after another big win in Gladsaxe and they will look to repeat against Tirol Raiders in a franchise first ever matchup with the Austrians.

Two high powered offenses from Week 1, will Raiders be able to keep up? And who will win in the other game in Week 2 between Paris and Prague?

Maceo Beard or Glen Toonga for game MVP?

Bjørn and Mathias share the excitement for Week 1 that is finally coming up. Other than covering their thoughts for the game, including the return of Danish DB, Milos Ilic, who was the first player to pick off a Nordic Storm pass last year, they discuss the outcomes of the other games as well (and hardly agree on anything in those two matchups)

They also discuss who will be the most important players for Storm's success this year! And are most important those who are hardest to replace or those who are best?

The season is closing in on us. This means a change in our production schedule, which Bjørn tells you about.

Meanwhile, Veronica tells us what the fans can expect from the team this year after participating in the very on-brand fan day with the team.

Mathias makes a qualified guess as to what a Mark DeLeone defense will look like this year and how that fits with the current roster.

In this episode we preview the perceived schedule (Disclaimer: We recorded before the Madrid Bravos news with the preliminary schedule we had dug up) and talk about how the team will fare against the different teams and who and how fans will travel and their gameday experience.

We also talk about the sponsorship deals that had been signed with Carlsberg and SimplyMeals and what it means in the short term for the team and fans, and how these partnerships impact the Nordic Storm brand.

First episode of the Stormcast features Veronica Jensen and Mathias Torp. It is hosted by Superfan Bjørn Schwartzbach and it does feature some technical difficulties and sea legs.

On the episode we will all introduce ourselves, talk a bit about the ELF/EFA/AFLE shake-up, the growing fan scene, and how the tailgating started and grew exponentially over the course of season 1

What exactly are the import rules in the EFA and what can we expect from the Nordic Storm's roster this year?

We go through the announced roster including recently signed superstar Maceo Beard. But can an S Tier defensive backfield make up for the thin DL and who will rush the passer?

On offense we speculate on the Line as well, because the announcements there have been sparse as well while focusing on keeping the core of skill position players intact.
