City cruise past Arsenal at Wembley as Forest win big at Spurs

Jimbo has Tim Spiers, Jay Harris and Luis Miguel Echegaray for company as the first silverware of the season in England is handed out. It’s Manchester City who claim the Carabao Cup thanks to a brace from Nico O’Reilly. What happened to league leaders Arsenal? And did Mikel Arteta make a mistake by starting Kepa? It was a cup final atmosphere elsewhere in North London but it was Forest who took home a massive 3 points at Spurs in the battle to survive. Are Tottenham doomed? The only positive for Spurs is that West Ham also lost and stay below them in the relegation zone. Villa the big winners in the Champions League race this weekend. That’s because Liverpool lost at Brighton and Chelsea were taken apart by Everton. Are the Blues set to miss out on Champions League football? What will that mean for Liam Rosenior? And could it be David Moyes managing in Europe’s premier club competition next season? Produced by Charlie Jones and Lucy Oliva RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Man City beat Arsenal in League Cup final (02.30) • PART 2a: Spurs 0-3 Nottingham Forest (20.00) • PART 2b: Aston Villa 2-0 West Ham (32.00) • PART 3a: Newcastle 1-2 Sunderland (38.00) • PART 3b: Everton 3-0 Chelsea (46.00) • PART 3c: Brighton 2-1 Liverpool (54.00) • PART 3d: Bournemouth 2-2 Man United (59.00) • PART 3e: Fulham 3-1 Burnley (61.00) • PART 3f: Leeds 0-0 Sunderland (64.00) Hosted on Acast.

The Man Who Can Find Anywhere

He is a god of Google Maps — an internet legend for matching a single image with a far-flung location, in the blink of an eye. But Trevor Rainbolt never wanted to be an influencer. And for a while there, he'd never even left the United States. The 27-year-old college dropout who helped us find Bill Belichick's Ring camera finally links up with Pablo to tell the sports origin story of a modern creator — from Steph Curry meme lord and KD DMs to Travis Kelce matchmaker and alleged CIA agent — while opening his aperture to the world he's been studying... then accepting a special assignment.

Chuck Klosterman Isn't Even Here Right Now

One of America's foremost cultural critics steps out of the writer's cabin and into the studio to predict the future of a game that seems too big to stop: What happened to the egghead prophecy of Peak Football? Is 11 minutes actually the perfect amount of hyper-connective, violent action? And, in a Post-Winning Era, will the relentless gold-mining of fandom threaten the NFL's dominance, as soon as 2070? Plus: best laid aquarium plans, killing your fake darlings, old love letters, the meaning of nostalgia... and becoming Don Rickles for Bill Simmons. • Read "Football" by Chuck Klosterman • Take a PTFO audience survey for your chance to win a $100 Amazon gift card Hosted on Acast.

The Briefcase, Ballmer's Social Network and Aspiration's House of Cards: Kawhi-Gate Part VII

As the NBA's investigation heats up, Pablo goes behind closed doors — and emerges with fresh sunlight: What exactly did the Clippers know about Kawhi Leonard's no-show deal? When did Steve Ballmer really get to know the fraudster who paid him off? And what do Doc Rivers, the Ritz-Carlton and a topless fashion shoot have to do with the origin story of a "match made in heaven" that the richest owner in sports would rather you ignore? Amin Elhassan and David Samson shake their heads, as we fact-check a timeline that the Clippers want you to believe.

Exclusive: The Invisible NBA Owner and "Crimes Against Humanity"

A dunking tech bro in Memphis. A drone massacre in Ukraine. How did America's backyard beams end up in Putin's network of underground buyers? And how on Earth do Ja Morant, Justin Timberlake, Kevin Hart and "The Grindfather" get us to an illegal trade war? Hunterbrook Media's Sam Koppelman breaks down how his reporters investigated from a bird's-eye view, to a high-end Moscow dealer, to undercover calls back home — and asks what the hell Adam Silver's gonna do about another billionaire scandal hiding in plain sight. • Read the full investigation at Hunterbrook Media (Pablo Torre Finds Out is independently produced by Meadowlark Media and distributed by The Athletic.
