  • Ep. 62 - You Gotta Keep Em' Separated
    Oct 30 2026

    Deepti, Treb and Marc break down a huge week in the Women's Super League. They open with the Ballon d'Or, then recap league play, the Champions League and the Subway Cup, and finish with predictions for match day eight.

    Ballon d'Or reaction
    • Alexia Putellas wins her third Ballon d'Or. Bunny Shaw finishes third, the highest-ranked WSL player.
    • The hosts talk about who else deserved a place (Yui Hasegawa was 11th) and why missing the Champions League may have cost Shaw. They also look at how the Women's World Cup and CONCACAF qualifying could shape next year's race.
    Match day 7 recap (Treb)
    • Tottenham 1–2 Arsenal: Arsenal's much-needed Derby win, with Ona Batlle looking more comfortable at right back.
    • Brighton 3–0 West Ham: Maisie Simons scores a long-range stunner.
    • Crystal Palace 1–3 Chelsea: Melvine Malard and Sandy Baltimore lead the comeback. The hosts also discuss the handbags moment involving Katie McCabe, and what has gone wrong for Palace.
    • Birmingham City 1–0 Charlton: Charlton remains pointless. The hosts debate where their first points could come from and whether the record for fewest points in a season is in danger.
    • Aston Villa 3–2 Everton
    • Liverpool 2–2 London City: A chaotic draw.
    • Manchester United 1–1 Manchester City: A Derby with an even split of possession. Shaw scores, but Beth Turlin grabs the late equalizer. The hosts discuss whether City are relying too heavily on Shaw.

  • Ep. 61 - The Catch Up Matchday 5 and 6
    Oct 24 2026

    The WSL is splitting fast, and this episode shows you exactly who’s rising, who’s cracking, and who still has time to turn it around. From Manchester City’s ruthless ceiling to Arsenal’s injury-hit collapse, we break down the teams that could define the season before the table hardens. With special guest, CrunkChocolate, he joins Deepti, Marc, and Treb who go team by team through the league, spotlighting the tactical shifts, key performers, and warning signs hiding inside the results. Manchester City’s all-out pressure, Chelsea’s evolving system under Sonia Bompastor, London City Lionesses’ surprise top-three push, Tottenham’s volatile ceiling, and Manchester United’s stunning turnaround all get the full treatment. We also get into the mid-table mess, where Everton, Liverpool, West Ham, Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Brighton, Birmingham City, and Charlton are all fighting for position in a league that keeps narrowing by the week. Some teams are flirting with momentum. Others are one bad result away from panic.If you want a smart, sharp, and sometimes brutally honest read on the WSL right now, this is essential listening. The predictions are spicy, the opinions are strong, and the race at the top just got a lot more interesting.

  • Ep. 60 - Vibe check
    Oct 22 2026

    The WSL is more unpredictable than it has been in years, and this episode breaks down exactly why. From London City’s surprising surge to Manchester United’s overperformance, Crystal Palace’s growing pains, and the season-long debate around Arsenal’s Renee Slegers, this vibe check digs into the teams, tactics, and pressure points that are shaping the title race, top-four chase, and relegation fight. Deepti is joined by Marc and Treb for a fast, opinionated midseason check-in on a league where almost any team can take points off another. They unpack the rise in scoring and xG conversion, why promoted clubs are actually competing, and which teams are starting to separate themselves from the pack.
