The Fantasy Premier League game is an art in and of itself. It helps us canvas a game we all know and love to a depth we never knew possible and is likely even a bit unhealthy. We've all been there. The game is crazy and that's why we love it. It's unlikely you'll ever find true happiness playing FPL (or in life). Only one person a year, the winner, can be happy, but at least you can learn to laugh at the results all while spending way too much of your life on a game that, despite your wildest dreams, carries very few implications in the real world.
The strategy is simple:
1. Do your research.
2. Make the smartest choices based on proven strategies.
3. Have/Follow a flexible plan.
4. Be involved in the community.
5. Laugh a bit.
Join co-hosts Marco & Jake for a weekly podcast covering all aspects of FPL, far to many jokes, and the community that comes along with it. And remember, you should dive!

Five stars

By far the most informative and funny fpl podcast I have ever listened to. Well at least in the last decade. Idk if there we podcasts back then. Definitely not fpl so there you go. Best fpl pod I’ve ever listened to. Ever.

2019 update:
I listened to these guys religiously over the 2018-2019 season and they didn’t help my fpl performance at all! I would still strongly recommend this podcast to everyone because they are my close friends and I want to see them have financial success.

Best pod around

Fantastic fpl pod. Hilarious and insightful. Regardless if you are new to fpl or a veteran this pod will help you out. If anything just do the opposite of Jake and you are sure to have a great fpl season.

Dildos, Jake and FPL

This pod is a “master stroke” of genius. Just ask Jake, the resident, not so expert who hit for a -80 and seems to have a “thang” for animals. Through it all these quite a bit of mooooooaning on air to get to some well thought out takes and thoughts from Marco. Not Jake, who acts as the “yes” man to Marco. Overall it’s an enjoyable pod dealing with the weekly routine of FPL. Excellent hosts, who work well together and some reliable guest comments keeps this pod down to earth. Cheers guys!
