Description

Going Deutsch returns following the final international break of 2024, leading to celebrations everywhere (more for the end of the international break but I'll take it.) Bayer Leverkusen come from 2-0 down to beat Heidenheim 5-2, Borussia Dortmund remain perfect at home with a 4-0 win over Freiburg, and El Plastico is one of the most interesting games of the weekend as Hoffenheim get the Christian Ilzer era off to a perfect start. In the Zweite, the seeded batch at the top sees Paderborn race into pole position, Steffen Baumgart is sacked following HSV's 2-2 draw with Schalke, and Elversberg look like they're mounting a serious promotion push following a 2-0 win away at Düsseldorf. Also on the pod: early goal music, an ejector seat, a 37-year-old debutant, a two-year banana supply, and the x-odus from Twitter.
