Description

What if I told you there was a club that trumped any notion you might have of cult status? What if I told you there was a club whose own fans rebuilt their stadium? A club whose corner flags have been designed by one of their own? Whose owner is a fan? A club with deep roots in an old geopolitical divide that has now galvanized global audiences?

On this episode author Kit Holden joins us from Berlin as we discuss his book 'Scheisse! We're Going Up!: The Unexpected Rise of Berlin's Rebel Football Club' (2:03). We cover a lot of ground including what makes Union's fanbase unique, what their history as a club from the former East Germany means and what is going on at the club this season (31:20).
