Ted and Travis chat up the last two matches for the boys in the brustring, the loss at Basel in the UEL and the win at home in the Buli. They cover the disappointing second match of the Europa League but spend more time - because positivity is key! - on the win over bogey team Heidenheim, a hard-fought, well-deserved victory that puts the fellas in a top four spot going into the international break. Which of course they whine about. Oh, and of course they ponder the big questions of the day ... like who would watch the NFL in Europe, especially when it's the Vikings and the Browns, and who in their right mind would import American beer for said game?!

It's a short week so it's a short episode as Matt and Travis briefly chat VfB Celta and KOE VfB ... two big wins in one big week! The guys also take a look at the upcoming match versus the spicey team Basel (get it?!) and hope to take down Fortress Heidenheim as well! All the while mocking one another's MLB teams ... while at the same time mocking their own. Yay Midwestern humor!

It's episode 168 and as you'd expect the guys focus on VfB and the boys in brown ... the Cleveland Browns!

After Travis mocks Matt for his NFL team winning for the first time in two decades, Ted joins in to chat the rise of the Frauen and the U21's as well as the new UEL kit ... and new font!

But before the UEL can be discussed, the fellas look back at the much needed recent win, a win in which a few newbies showed they deserve some spots in the lineup and that Seb has some tough decisions to make going forward.

Matt, Ted, and Travis wrap up as one would expect - looking forward to the opening UEL match versus Celta Vigo, the upcoming Bundesliga match at a surprisingly resurgent Koln, and of course, famed NFL center Frank Winters.

Yes, THE Frank Winters!

It's Matt, Ted, and Travis for an hour long "whhhhhhhat" just happened episode as we try to break down what is going on with our VfB after three Bundesliga matches. We chat SCFVfB, Ted's cat, Matt's refusal to sit down, and Travis' kolsch.

And that's ... pretty much it.

But we do it for an hour!

Matt, Ted, and Travis return to chat two wins in a short week ... a week that witnessed the 100th birthday of VfB's beloved brustring! In a random and somewhat scattered episode, we chat Nick, the Pokal, the brustring, Derek, VfBBMG, tifo, new signings, and new schedule reveals! It's a long-winded way to say it was a pretty wild week for any of those who love the white and red!

It's the opening match of the Bundesliga season which means it's the opening episode for us, and we bench Matt and Ted for disciplinary reasons and bring in super-sub Hannes to help us break down what was a rather lackluster start to the 2025/2026 season. Along the way the guys shout out the Frauen (who actually won), Daxo and VfBII (who actually got points), as well as the sweet new kits that JAKO has produced (even though we're winless in them so far). They then look at the match and ponder the lineup, the lack of changes, and to continue the alliteration, the role that luck played in the opening loss of the season. It's not all bad news though as Hannes and Travis wrap up with some optimistic looks at the matches ahead - a Pokal trip to Braunschweig and a home match versus BMG - before wondering the question on everyone's mind ... which character from the children's show Bluey would they both play?!

It's Part 2 of our season preview, this time looking at departures and offense! Ted joins Travis and gives his thoughts on the (silly) SuperCup and why the guys are optimistic despite a second straight second place finish! They then dive into the departures and say goodbye to Enzo before pondering which rumored exit would be the most surprising and then break down the offense position by position and, thanks to their overly optimistic nature, leave off with some, well, optimistic signs for the future. Finally the guys take a look at the first Bundesliga match of the season, an away trip to Berlin, but this time to start the season, not finish it!

We're back! Matt, Ted, and Travis return to take a quick peak at what's what when it comes to everyone's favorite Pokal-winning, brustring-wearing, maultasche-eating club from the heart of Stuttgart!

In Part One, Matt and Travis take a look at the recent arrivals, from newbie Lorenz to old friend Tiago, before breaking down the strengths and weaknesses of Matt's favorite part of the team, the d-d-defense!

And don't worry ... we tried to do some new editing and sound and it's as bad as you've come to love*!

Check back tomorrow morning for Ted's look at the departures and the offense as well as a preview of the opening Bundesliga match as the boys in white and red travel to Berlin!
