Great podcast. My go to. But the audio volume is always too low. Please fix this. The episode from 3/2/26 is an example of poor audio

Chelsea Football

Good pod, I like how there’s not bias on any of them, Juls and Gab show is really good and I like how they take every team seriously, no matter where they come from. This is amazing because there’s not many soccer podcasts, and I like how they cover a lot of topics, even though they miss things sometimes it’s still really good. I think Chelsea will win the champion league, just my opinion tho.

bye bye birdie

Bayerns just won the league over Dortmund with a last second goal and it’s not even the lead story on the show? Imagine that with City vs Arsenal or Real vs Barca… just call it PL + La Liga FC or change the programming.
