Chad and Brian dive into last weekend's EPL action, featuring a lengthy discussion on the current state of Liverpool. We then move on to Chelsea vs Arsenal, where there is some disagreement on what the takeaway from the match should be.

Erling Haaland's scoring form can't keep up like this, can it? The Norwegian is on 15 goals with just 14 matches played. He is on pace to SMASH his league scoring record of 36 goals.

After a brief discussion about the UCL, Chad takes center stage for a rant about the state of Leicester and the Championship as a league.

Karl makes his triumphant return to The High Kicks Podcast, and things get hilarious right from the jump with a debate over the weirdest pet choices (Komodo dragons, emus, and a surprise platypus named Greg). The crew dives deep into the chaos of international soccer, from wild World Cup qualification drama—think Norway and Haaland, Italy’s near misses, and Curacao’s stunning run—to spicy takes about Ronaldo, England under Tuchel, and the bizarre possibilities for the US-hosted World Cup. With signature banter and some unexpected stories from Karl’s European adventures, this episode brings both laughs and genuinely thoughtful footy insight. Plus: injury predictions, World Cup conspiracy theories, and the eternal internet threat if England wins on American soil. Don’t miss it!

Liverpool's loss to United at home has Brian fuming. The hosts break down the match, including some killer goals and shaky defense from the Reds. They can't stop talking about Erling Haaland's insane goal-scoring for City. Is he on track to smash Premier League records?

Champions League action gets a look, with PSG and Arsenal putting up big numbers. La Liga's Miami match cancellation gets praised, kind of - the hosts aren't buying their excuses. Chad gives us the lowdown on Leicester's Championship struggles.

Oh, and apparently, skijoring is a thing. Who knew?

Liverpool CANNOT keep getting away with this. The Reds have 5 wins in 5 matches on the season, with the winner coming at the 83rd minute or later. Is it a case of good fortune or championship mentality? Whatever it is, Brian is hoping it continues.

The first 2 days of the Champions League featured some excellent football. Real Madrid scraped by Marseille on a penalty given for a VERY questionable handball, Juve and BVB combined for 8 second-half goals, and Qarabag went into Portugal and took down Benfica 3-2.

We dive deep into Manchester United's horrid start to the season. Is it Amorim's fault, or is the club now perpetually in the gutter? If the Red Devils don't turn something around soon, we could see yet another manager at the helm before we know it.

Jack Grealish looks to be back to his Villa baller ways with Everton allowing him to play more freely. Can he keep up his incredible form throughout the season?

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) dominated Inter Milan in the Champions League final, leaving football fans worldwide in awe. Our hosts dissect every aspect of this triumph, from tactical masterstrokes to individual brilliance. They marvel at PSG's star-studded lineup and debate whether this victory cements their status as a true European powerhouse.

The conversation shifts to Gianluigi Donnarumma's phenomenal performance. Has the young Italian shot-stopper already earned a place among the all-time goalkeeping greats?

Luis Enrique's tactical genius takes center stage as the hosts analyze how he orchestrated PSG's success. With another treble under his belt, where does he rank among the managerial elite?

Inter Milan's future looks uncertain after this crushing defeat. We speculate on potential transfers and what it might take for the Italian giants to bounce back on the European stage.

The episode concludes on a somber note, addressing the tragic events that unfolded during PSG's victory celebrations in Paris. Our hosts emphasize the importance of responsible celebration and discuss broader issues of crowd safety in football.
