Liverpool Meltdown Special: Bonus Episode
This is a bonus episode, so don't worry- FPL content will be back tomorrow. With all of the noise coming out about Liverpool, Salah, and Slot I wanted to put my thoughts out about the matter. However, a lot of what I rant about will be relevant to FPL in some ways, especially around Salah. In this episode I want to break down all of the areas I feel Liverpool Football Club are failing, pathways they can improve and who is to blame. Is it Salah?

Game Week 1 Reactions: The Luckening
GW1 is live, and FPL is BACK. Emphasis on the back, because that weekend was a pain in my backside. In today's episode I will be talking through my main takeaways from every single match from this weekend, how it impacted my team, and my plans moving forward. We also have the results from my scout vs. the official FPL scout competition.

Final Draft and Final Thoughts Ahead of GW1!
We are finally here ahead of Game Week 1. I walk through my draft in way too much detail to explain/ support my decisions. I discuss my thoughts on different chip strategies, alternative players I considered in my drafts throughout this month, and wrap the pod with my scout picks to beat the official FPL scout!

Full Premier League Predictions and FPL Implications
Today I go through my predictions for every single place in the Premier League this coming season. I explain my decisions (hopefully) backed up my logic, reason, stats, and complete bias. This isn't a typical FPL podcast episode this week, though I think the macro discussion of the EPL is skimped over too much in FPL, so feel free to pass or skip to a section you're interested in using the chapter markers.

Mini League Prizes + Players Who Are Worth The Risk!
The Ignore the Template Mini League is here! And prizes abound. On the podcast today, I detail the grand prize, the weekly prizes and all the things you need to do to be eligible for the prizes (its not much- basically set up an approved way I can send you money). In the main segment of the podcast I sort through the risky players to determine who might be wait and see, and others who might be worth the risk.

Top 5 Value Picks by Position!
Getting closer to that GW1 deadline, I thought it pod-worthy to discuss all of my top 5 value pickes ahead of the 2025-26 FPL season. What does the data say, what is the context, who can improve their value over the course of next season, and who might lose value- all discussed on this week's episode.

GW1 BB: Pros, Cons, and First Draft for Bench Boost
Today is going to be a deep dive on strategy for Game Week 1. Specifcally, I will be calling out pros and cons, then doing a bit of a thought experiment where I steelman my own arguments for and against the bench boost for GW1. After wading through all the arguments, I give my overall take and then walk through my draft for BB GW1 along with a bunch of alternatives and context supporting my decisions (up to this point- it's all subject to change).
