I genuinely think us signing Eze is completely unconnected to Havertz. Even if Kai is out for the season, we don’t do deals like this. I think we waited to see if Rodrygo or someone else was an option and as the Spuds got closer and closer, we decided to respond.

So fellow Gooners with a seemingly long-term injury for Kai (ACL???) who do you reckon we'll go for - Jackson, Nkunku or Sterling??

Sales call at 9.15 in the morning - already?!
But, as a salesman for over *cough* years, I take immediate & terminal exception to being called 'mate' by someone I've never spoken to before in my life. Even more so when it's a 'professional' operation selling financial services.
Train them better.

It’s very Nobel of Trump to be so forthright.
TRUMP: "[Israel and Iran] have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing. Do you understand that?"

I can see how Juneteenth is so important to Black Americans, but as a Brit I wonder if it connects with Black Brits/other non-US peoples as much? Or is there a U.K. date that resonates??
Juneteenth calls us to understand the realities of our past, celebrate the resilience and achievements of Black Americans, and align the course of our country toward its founding creed of liberty and justice for all. Wishing everyone a meaningful Juneteenth!

I’m not sure this is quite as positive/funny an outcome as I’m seeing it spin as.
Two plausible takeaways, firstly (and inevitably) the Maga will call everything ‘fake news’ and double down. But they weren’t winnable, it’s those on the edge that will start to doubt the truth and back Maga

I am sure no foul or sleight was intended but I & an estimated 3 million others were NOT supported, indeed were wilfully and deliberately EXCLUDED from support.
Maybe in a future episode it’s an ongoing issue that you guys might like to explore?

@sturdyalex.bsky.social @quietriotpod.bsky.social as much as I love the podcast I must take huge exception to a (admittedly probably ‘throw away’) comment in today’s episode.
You said that ‘“Sunak was basically handing out free money to everyone” an allusion to the pandemic ‘support’ schemes. 1/2

Seeing the Eubanks v Benn advert and I’m wondering if it’s hype or are the sons really at their dad’s standards?
I genuinely don’t know. I’ve not watched the youngers so I’ve no idea.
Anyone can tell me?

Unless I’m overlooking someone, all ‘leaders’ of the major faith groups have one thing in common. They’re men.
Come on Catholics, show us how you’ve changed and grown. Elect a woman.
What could possibly be the objection?

Why the distress about the death of the Pope? If the Catholics are correct and being with God is the ultimate prize, then surely God’s representative on Earth is the owner of the biggest winning lottery ticket known to man.

Arsenal score and the disappointment coming from Chris Sutton on co-coms is palpable. He *really* doesn’t seem to like us.
