Milo and Steff look into the Spurs academy sides, the u21s game against Fleetwood and the U18s game at Manchester City. We take stock of who we have in the ranks, discuss the shift in structure which has led to these exciting days, focus on the importance of academy director Simon Davies, and ponder why evaluating youth players is not anywhere close to straightforward.
Fabio Paratici
An Elephant In The Room
For the first pod of 2023, Steff, Milo, and Ricky explore the various turbulences and issues swirling around Spurs as we look back at the matches against Aston Villa and Brentford. Souffles, Sophia Loren, Nandos, omelettes, it’s all part of the discussion as we try to figure out what is going on. It’s Specials, trust us…
Paratici’s First Year
It’s mucho deporte as Steff, Gareth, Simon and Milo discuss the latest Spurs news, round-up the transfer rumours, preview of our upcoming friendlies in South Korea and give Fabio Paratici his annual appraisal as we review his first year at the club.
Into The Transfer Rumour Mill
Steff, Milo and Gareth…
1) Reveal the new James Bond
2) Dive into the transfer rumour mill. How does it work and who to trust?
3) Look at this week’s biggest transfer gossip
4) Give you the full low-down on everything from England U19s to Daniel Levy’s insistence on horticulture in N17
5) Reveal who is responsible for the true birth of the semi-scurrilous transfer rumour in modern football. A clue. It is someone on this week’s show, and unless you listen, you’ll never know because you’ll never, ever guess who it is…
Kulu Shaker
This week, Steff, Milo, Gareth and Simon take a look back at the fine 3-1 win over Brighton in the FA Cup 4th Round, discuss the transfer window holistically, get the full run down on Spurs new super Swede signing Dejan Kulusevski and discover what Rodrigo Bentancur and Hollywood legend Morgan Freeman have in common. Plus Milo commits to a firm prediction. Fancy Hitchen a ride into that lot? Welcome and come on in…

Emergency Pod: Nuno’s Sacking and Conte’s Appointment
Emergency! Emergency! Tottenham have sacked a manager and are on the verge of appointing another. Steff, Milo, Ricky and Gareth stop what they’re doing and discuss Nuno’s exit, Antonio’s impending entrance and Paratici’s role in it all…it’s fast, it’s loose, it’s life as a Spurs supporter!
A Bad Plan, Poorly Executed
This week Steff, Gareth and Milo try to make holistic sense of what happened at the Deathstar. Oh, and Kenneth Branagh introduced proceedings with his best Brian Blessed impression and Harry Dean Stanton drops some heavy philosophy too. You know you can’t resist such aural therapy…
Emergency Pod: Nuno Espírito Santo
STOP PRESS: Steff, Milo, Gareth and Ricky convene for an emergency pod to welcome Nuno Espirito Santo as our new manager, discuss the appointment from several angles AND determine that Jorges Mendes is all Scribes and less Faces. It’ll make sense when you tune in – as you will in 3-2-1
Recorded on the hoof, so apologies for ropey sound.
Clusterf*ckapocalypse
WTF is going on with the new manager hunt? It has been the elephant in our beloved Tottenham’s room for some time now, so Ram, Gareth, Milo and Steff decide to go full Sherlock Holmes and try to separate the wheat from the chaff aka the bullshit from the truth. We try -as ever- to see all sides, but crikey, sometimes it’s really, really hard to do so!
