Liverpool wrapped up the Premier League and secured their 20th top-flight title, but Eddie doubts they'll be able to repeat the feat next season. Wrexham's promotion from League One also puts them one step closer to the Premier League, but the Championship may be their toughest test yet. The Cleveland Browns finally halted Shedeur Sanders' slide down the 2025 NFL Draft in the 5th round, but is there any justification for the accusations of racism or bias behind the drop? Eddie and Frank think it had more to do with his talent than his personality.  Plus, the Last of Us 2 season 2 is in full swing, but is Bella Ramsey capable of taking the lead from Pedro Pascal, and why have the writers made Ellie so unlikeable? 

Fan favorite Vas has found himself in another complicated dating situation, but does he have a chance? And the NFL Draft threw up a couple of surprises, but were the Browns right to trade down? Will Shadeur Sanders go in the second round? And did the New York Giants make the right move at quarterback?

They delve into the implications of streaming quality and why Eddie might not have been wrong about his Fox versus Sky Super Bowl 4K quality assessment, have a go at a Valentine's Day quiz, and discuss Minnesota Timberwolves Star Anthony Edwards' latest drama. The conversation also covers the recent Champions League matches and another late slip-up from Manchester City, and the fallout from the Merseyside Derby.

Plus, the latest episode of the series 'Severance' might raise more questions than it is answering, and that could be a problem.

The Philadelphia Eagles manhandles the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX, winning 40-22 in a score that flattered the Chiefs. After a long season, the Chiefs' no-show in the Super Bowl means that Eddie feels slightly vindicated, but what's next for Patrick Mahomes after possibly the worst performance of his career? And did the Eagles put together the perfect blueprint for winning the Super Bowl? Their only slight disappointment would be Saquon Barkley getting into the endzone. Plus, President Trump continues to lie, even as he tries to fix the NFL, Eddie recommends 'The Pitt' from Amazon, and Frank is looking forward to getting back into ice hockey.

The Philadelphia Eagles and the Kansas City Chiefs will face off in Super Bowl LIX, but Frank and Eddie disagree on who will come out on top. Can the Chiefs complete the three-peat, or will Saquon Barkley and the Eagles run their way to the Lombardi Trophy. Plus, Eddie rants about the lack of class that Arsenal showed in their 5-1 win over Manchester City and why their 4-0 aggregate defeat to Newcastle United in the League Cup proves that Arteta and his side do need to stay humble.

The Philadelphia Eagles cruised through the NFC Championship game. However, Eddie and Frank still feel that Jayden Daniels and the Commanders have a lot to be optimistic about after a game that could have been slightly closer. But did we see enough from the Eagles to believe that they can dominate both lines of scrimmage in the Super Bowl? Once again, Josh Allen and the Bills came up short in the AFC Championship game, but did the better team win, and were the Kansas City Chiefs helped out by some questionable officiating? Plus, another controversial decision goes against Arsenal in the Premier League, Eddie hates Gladiator 2, and Severance continues to stutter towards intriguing plotlines.

Previews and predictions for both the AFC and NFC Championship games. Jayden Daniels has had a record-breaking rookie season, but both Eddie and Frank agree that the Washington Commanders could make things difficult for the Philadelphia Eagles. The Kansas City Chiefs are seeking their 3rd straight Super Bowl win, but Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills could have too much firepower for Patrick Mahomes. Plus reaction to a set of midweek Champions League games that included an impressive comeback for PSG against Manchester City, Novak Djokovic's acting job against Carlos Alcaraz, and Severance gets off to a slow, but promising, start in season 2. 

Our previews and predictions for every game of the NFL Divisional Round playoff games. Eddie explains why he's concerned about both the Kansas City Chiefs and, in particular, the Detroit Lions and their defensive issues. Jayden Daniels has looked good so far, but can his rookie season include an NFC Championship appearance with the Washington Commanders? Frank provides the listener with a bet that he's willing to put his mortgage on, but can Saquon Barkley and the Eagles run all over the Rams and will Lamar Jackson or Josh Allen come out on top when the Ravens take on the Bills? Plus, City's continued struggles continue to cause Pep Guardiola headaches, Arsenal are slowly improving, and Eddie's wait for a new TV is nearly over. 

Reaction to every game from the NFL's Wildcard Weekend. Who hurt their reputation more on the back of disappointing outings? Sam Darnold or Justin Herbert? And did Baker Mayfield and the Bucs manage the game well enough against the Washington Commanders? Eddie and Frank explain why the Baltimore Ravens now look like the best team in football and discuss if Steelers fans should hope for a bad season. And are the stars aligning for the Bills, Chiefs, and Lions? Plus, Frank is sucked back in by Penn State Football only to be crushed by their loss to Notre Dame in the College Football Playoffs and Ohio State survived a slight scare against Texas. And Novak Djokovic may still be dominating on the court, but his recent GQ interview revealed some more kooky health beliefs. 

The festive period is over, but Eddie's Christmas period got a little bit better after he managed to talk his way back into some Oasis tickets. But after several blowouts and an unsuccessful round for bye teams, are the expanded College Football Playoffs delivering on what they promised and will anyone be able to stop Ohio State? Plus, who has what to play for in the final week of the NFL regular season, are the Eagles right to be resting Saquon Barkley and denying him his shot at history, and how old was Jim Halpert and does The Office really deserve a rewatch? 

The NFL regular season is nearing its completion and only a handful of teams are left with playoff spots to play for or draft positioning to worry about. But just how big of a mistake did the New York Giants make by beating the Colts and will the Bengals or Falcons be able to sneak into the playoffs in Week 18? Plus, is Saquon Barkley a Hall of Famer and just how important should the single-season rushing record be to his legacy? Why the Aaron Rodgers documentary reveals just how boring he is. And should dogs be allowed on planes? 

Frank's holiday party got a little bit out of hand, but could he improve his present offering? While the Instagram algorithm showed Eddie some revealing information about a former podcast cohost. Blackburn Rovers are on a run of excellent form, but Eddie explains why this feels like familiar territory for a side that never makes the playoffs. Plus, Manchester City and Arsenal once again slipped up, but can Chelsea continue to close the gap on Liverpool? And how much does the Bills' win over the Lions really matter? Is Dan Campbell too smart for his own good? And who else is there to fear in the AFC and NFC?  And will Frank's confidence in Penn State be justified as the College Football playoffs get underway? 

Frank and Eddie are in the same studio for the first time in Big Chill history.

Plus travel stories and some recommendations for movies to watch on planes.

Eddie explains why no trip to the doctor is straightforward in France and why they might be overestimating your ability to read an MRI. But what does the Cowboys Thursday night win over the Giants mean for their respective seasons and would you rather be a GM or owner with Dak Prescott's contract or Daniel Jones' contract on the books. Plus all of our previews and predictions for the remainder of a disappointing set of matchups for Week 4 of the NFL season. Can the Bengals get back on track against the Panthers? Will the Vikings continue their run against the Packers even if Jordan Love makes his return? And can the Ravens finally win a game against a good team when they face the Bills? 

Manchester City and Arsenal battled out a hard-fought 2-2 draw at the weekend, leaving the Premier League title race pretty much unchanged. But Eddie explains why he loved a throwback to old-fashioned football where rivals hated each other and Erling Haaland telling Mikel Arteta and his Arsenal side to stay humble. Arsenal fans are quick to complain, but maybe they need to be a little bit more objective about a match that was poorly officiated for both sides. But first, reaction to Week 3 of the 2024 NFL season and is it time to call it season over for the Dallas Cowboys and Cincinnati Bengals? Are the Minnesota Vikings really good and when is it time to start worrying about the San Francisco 49ers?

And will there be improvement from the Browns, Bengals, or Giants?  

The opening week of the 2024 NFL season saw impressive wins for the Chiefs, Eagles, Cowboys, and Lions, but which teams need to panic? Can the Browns fix the Deshaun Watson problem and are the Cincinnati Bengals in trouble? Plus Eddie explains why England supporters shouldn't care about Lee Carlsey not singing the national anthem and why Ireland fans need to get over themselves when it comes to Declan Rice and Jack Grealish. 

We make our previews and predictions for every game from Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season. Who will come out on top in the matchups between the Ravens v Chiefs and the Packers v Eagles?

Controversy in the Tennis world as the ATP is criticized for their handling of Jannik Sinner's two failed drug tests. Djokovic, Krygios, and other stars have complained about his lack of punishment, with the debate likely to continue throughout the US Open. A weekend of European football saw Manchester City and Liverpool pick up comfortable wins, Arsenal pass their first big test, and Bayern Munich survive a scare after another Bayer Leverkusen late, late show. But how seriously should we take Chelsea's attacking threat and when should Real Madrid start to worry about Mbappe's lack of goals? Plus college football returns with Florida State losing in Dublin and Frank is left uninspired by the 3rd season of The Bear and too much Ryan Reynolds in Deadpool & Wolverine. 

Season 7 gets underway with a quick catch-up on what we missed over the break. Eddie shares his thoughts on the Paris 2024 Olympic experience and Frank has some issues with his trips to Europe.

England's innovative approach to penalties saw them overcome Southgate's lack of tactical sophistication against Switzerland. Spain beat Germany in the tie of the round, but the Netherlands proved to be the most convincing winners against Turkey. Can England improve enough to beat an in-form Netherlands side and will Spain prove to be too much for a France team that have still yet to score from open play? Plus a resurgence in American men's tennis at Wimbledon as Djokovic and Alcaraz continue to impress. Swiatek's early-exit means that the women's singles at Wimbledon looks more open than ever.
