Sam, Jim, and Tom dive into their matchday experience, sharing the highs and lows from inside Elland Road, including a less-than-electric South Stand that left them wanting a bit more atmosphere. Our roaming correspondent Ricardo joins remotely from China (with a bit of a dig about the delayed episode, cheers mate!) to give his thoughts on a dominant, if somewhat inefficient, Leeds performance. The gang breaks down the key moments, including Jayden Bogle's opener and a solid finish from Joel Piroe.

With a backdrop of midnight hustle and bustling streets outside, Ricardo shares stories from his travels, adding a unique flavour to the show. But don't worry, we get to the footy soon enough. The hosts dissect the recent Leeds performance against Millwall—a match that left fans scratching their heads. Ricardo and the gang dive into what went wrong, and whether Jimbo's earlier optimistic takes on Leeds' prospects might need a second look. The upcoming match against QPR is next on the docket, with team stats and expectations as they map out what Leeds needs to turn things around.

    It's another 90+15 instant reaction, and this time Sam and Jim are chewing over Leeds' frustrating 1-0 loss to Millwall. There was plenty of possession, plenty of shots—but apparently not much else. They dive into why Leeds just couldn't find the back of the net despite dominating on paper. Millwall, fresh off some strong performances, held firm, leaving Leeds fans with a bitter taste and more than a few questions about consistency. Expect the usual sharp analysis, from missed opportunities to defensive gaps. Sam and Jim don't hold back on their frustrations, especially with Leeds' seeming inability to do anything with set-pieces—again. Highlights, lowlights, and some questionable tactics all get their share of the spotlight, alongside a couple of standout (and stand-down) player performances. If you've had enough of feeling like we're just “almost there” every week, join Sam and Jim as they set some realistic expectations (or vent a little!) for Leeds' next few matches.

Special shout-outs go to Ao Tanaka for his solid presence and a series of smart substitutions that kept the pressure up right till the end.

    Episode 20, lads! Tom and Jimbo pop the champagne (alright, a cup of Yorkshire tea) to mark this big one. They're looking back, rambling forward, and digging into all the chaos that makes Leeds, well, Leeds. Injury round-ups? Check. Some laughs at our expense? Naturally. And a love letter to the absolute graft Sam puts in behind the scenes, keeping us from genuinely falling apart. But this episode's got something a bit special. We're taking it international with a cracking chat with Eric from Oslo. Now, here's a guy who's been in the Leeds trenches since the ‘70s. Eric's got tales of meeting Bielsa, swapping stories with Peter Lorimer, and rallying the mad army of Scandinavian Leeds fans who gather like it's Elland Road every matchday. The man lives and breathes Leeds from hundreds of miles away and wouldn't have it any other way. So, what's in store? A bit of reminiscing, some nostalgia, a look at the fixtures and Adidas swag, and some truly dodgy predictions for the Plymouth game. As always, it's a cocktail of nonsense, loyalty, and a bit of optimism. MOT!

The lads dive into a delightful blend of banter, storytelling, and sports news, proving that even in Tom's absence, the show's as lively as ever. One of the top topics? Leeds United's never-ending quest to sign players without things going pear-shaped. This time it's Kouyaté's dodgy medical that gets a grilling, because Leeds transfer windows wouldn't be complete without a bit of déjà vu. But it's not all local doom and gloom. The crew also tackles the more bizarre side of sports, including Neymar's curious foray into boxing (because why not?) and a good laugh about that one time Missy Elliott rocked their world. And if you ever wanted to know what a run-in with a T-Rex looks like, well, this is the podcast for you. The show also gets serious-ish with international football highlights, from the fiery Uruguayan players losing their cool to Bielsa stirring up his usual mischief as their head coach. There's also a rumble about Thomas Tuchel possibly guiding England, which could go one of two ways—either brilliant or the start of an oddball romcom. Oh, and let's not forget Mateo Joseph, who decided to casually bag a hat-trick for Spain's under-21s. No big deal. The episode wraps up with a meaty preview of Leeds vs. Sheffield United.
