NOTE: Maxi Beier's move to Borussia Dortmund was made official after the recording of this podcast. Also want to note that Tom Rothe's transfer to Union Berlin does indeed have a buyback clause.
In the second episode of the new season: a controversial red card doesn't take away from Miroslav Klose's first win as Nürnberg beat Schalke, Kaiserslautern come from 2-0 down to draw with Fürth, whilst Elversberg get a shock draw with Köln. In the third tier, Dresden also come from 2-0 down to win a fascinating Ost-Derby against Energie Cottbus, three other sides hold 100% records, whilst Osnabrück continue to be stuck at the wrong end of a table. Also on the pod: Hansa continue to be awful, references to Tad Lasso and Taskmaster, and a player finally escaping the island.
