Chloe and Rachel saw all the drama in the flesh and reflect on it all. What a relegation battle we've got on our hands!But first off, there's the small matter of Arsenal beating the league leaders Manchester City to continue the Renéeformation and at long, long last just going direct with Olivia Smith up top. We also discuss Chelsea's less than convincing win against Spurs and what the departure of their influential head of football means for the club moving forward. And Madonna rocks up to a WSL game!

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie cast an eye over Arsenal's 1-0 win over Manchester City in the WSL. There is focus on Arsenal's defensive improvement this season, the decision to play Olivia Smith at centre-forward, yet another player of the match performance from Kim Little and how the Gunners maintained control in a fixture usually defined by chaos.

Apologies for the late show today, but we're finally here to chat all about another big weekend in the Premier League title race, which saw Manchester City come from behind to win away at Liverpool, for only the second time under Pep Guardiola. After shout outs for the WSL, PSG v Marseille and a few other results (04:21), Musa and Ryan head to Anfield (11:23), which saw another unbelievable free-kick from Dominik Szoboszlai give Liverpool the lead, a great comeback and the world being cruelly robbed of one of the silliest goals of the modern era.That meant the gap was the same at the top as before the weekend, following Arsenal's impressive 3-0 win over Sunderland on Saturday (30:52). Elsewhere, Aston Villa dropped more points, Manchester United may never lose again, Crystal Palace ended their winless streak and Cole Palmer scored another first half hat-trick.In Germany, Bayern and Dortmund teased a title race (48:13) and St. Pauli got a much needed win. Finally, there's a round-up of La Liga and a bit of chat about Ademola Lookman's move to Atlético Madrid (53:12).A reminder: Southbank Centre live show! March 1st! With special guest Nish Kumar!

Microsoft MVP Harm Veenstra, creator of PowerShellIsFun.com, joins The PowerShell Podcast to talk about productivity, consistency, and why PowerShell really is fun. Harm shares how blogging regularly helped accelerate his learning, improve his workflow, and deepen his connection to the community. He also discusses his recent transition to macOS, how he uses PowerShell across Mac, Linux, and Windows, and why modern PowerShell is far more cross-platform than many people realize. The conversation dives into VS Code extensions, GitHub Codespaces, WSL, Nerdfonts, and practical terminal setups, along with honest thoughts on AI-generated scripts, learning the hard way, and why asking questions publicly is one of the fastest paths to growth. Key Takeaways: Consistency beats perfection – Having a repeatable workflow for writing, scripting, or learning makes long-term progress almost automatic. PowerShell is truly cross-platform – Running PowerShell on macOS, Linux, WSL, and containers unlocks powerful workflows beyond Windows-only thinking. Community accelerates everything – Asking questions, sharing small discoveries, and contributing publicly leads to faster learning, confidence, and career growth. Guest Bio: Harm Veenstra is a Microsoft MVP, consultant, blogger, and community contributor best known for PowerShellIsFun.com, where he publishes frequent, practical PowerShell content. He is an active participant in the PowerShell community and a regular conference attendee and speaker.

In 2017, Wilem Banks (@Wilembanks) made headlines when he suffered a horrific fall at Mavericks and won WSL's Wipeout of the Year (the most embarrassing award in surfing). The award seemed to put a chip on Wilem's shoulder, and since then, he's set out to prove that he can do more than paddle into gigantic waves—he can make them, too. This year, the humble warrior took his first trip to Jaws on Maui and bagged what some say was the biggest wave ever completed at the spot. In this episode, Wilem recounts the story in detail. Beyond the ocean, he is a hunter, carpenter, and co-owner of Banks&Banks Saunas, a custom-built sauna service he runs with his brother.If you dig this podcast, will you please leave a short review on Apple Podcasts?

EP 105 | The Secret Art of Barrel Riding | Pinch My SaltThe Secret Art of Barrel Riding goes way deeper than just getting pitted. In this episode of Pinch My Salt, Sterling Spencer and Cousin Ryan unpack what it really means to progress in surfing—from learning how to ride barrels properly to understanding the mindset of true surf black belts. Using legendary moments from Jordy Smith, Dane Reynolds, Tom Curren, Bruce Irons, Kelly Slater, Rasta, and Bryce Young, the boys break down why some surfers naturally flow with the wave while others fight it. This episode blends barrel riding technique, surf philosophy, and real-world lessons about patience, commitment, and timing—on a surfboard and in life.We get into why tail pads can hold you back, how removing them forces better rail work, why Bruce Irons' knee-drag changed Pipeline forever, and what made Tom Curren's barrel stance so different from everyone else's. Along the way, the conversation drifts into dad life, ego, aging, creativity, midlife pondering, learning when to let go, and why chasing titles—or forcing turns—doesn't always lead to happiness. From body surfing and foils to core-lord debates, pro-surfer psychology, and why waves seem to “choose” certain people, this episode is for surfers trying to surf better and live better.If you're learning to surf, chasing deeper barrels, stuck in a plateau, or just love honest surf talk mixed with comedy and chaos, this one's for you.#PinchMySalt #SurfPodcast #BarrelRiding #HowToSurf #SurfTips #GetBarreled #SurfBlackBelt #SurfingLife #SurfCulture #CoreLord #JordySmith #DaneReynolds #TomCurren #BruceIrons #KellySlater #Rasta #BodySurfing #FoilSurfing #NoTailPad #SurfPhilosophy #SurfComedy #GulfCoastSurfing #SurfPodcast #Surfing #SurfCulture #KellySlater #TomCurren #BruceIrons #RobMachado #SurfingLife #SurfComedy #Foiling #SurfClips #BarrelRiding #NoTailPad

The last Drop of 2025 is a heavy one. A reigning world champ parts with his headline sponsor. The WSL calls off the day of the event at Pipe. Stab gets in a bidding war with a major surf brand (and loses, then wins). And Stab Surfer of the Year gets a facelift.

That's it for the WSL in 2025! And we were treated to a couple of bangers this weekend to finish things off. Chloe and Rachel relive it all!Man United pulled off mission impossible against Spurs – although maybe it was more like ‘mission never should have been impossible in the first place' – and Marc Skinner was evidently feeling a little hot under the collar.Elsewhere, West Ham and Liverpool played out a four goal stalemate that left no one happy, Rachel least of all!And Man City kept up their title pace with a blistering 6-1 win against Aston Villa, featuring a very special milestone for Bunny Shaw. Can anything stop her taking the all-time WSL goalscoring record?Want to win an England shirt SIGNED by Lucy Bronze?! To enter our prize draw, simply fill out Stak's listener survey!

There's some important admin up top about the upcoming Christmas episodes, a Patreon offer and news on our next show at the Southbank Centre!Musa and Ryan then chat about Mo Salah's mixed zone comments that followed Liverpool's 3-3 draw away at Leeds which look like starting the process of him potentially leaving the club (09:07) and is the latest situation in an already very difficult season. The Salah situation mean that there isn't as much chat about the game itself, but there is also praise for Leeds (26:22), as well as Aston Villa's late win over Arsenal at Villa Park and a quick round-up of some other Premier League games.There's also time to shout out some other results from the weekend (36:07), including Hearts' win at Celtic, the MLS Cup, Arab Cup, the WSL, Serie A and La Liga, before some thoughts on the World Cup draw (42:14), which took place on Friday.Tickets for our second live show at the Southbank Centre in London are on sale here.For more podcasts each week, ad-free and in full, plus access to the Stadio Social Club and much more, become a Stadio member by going to patreon.com/stadio.
