In the first episode of this series, the guys look at the first five Euros from 1960-1976. The event was in its infancy with just four teams qualifying for the finals. The quick tournament grew over time, but these first five set the table for what would become the second biggest international soccer tournament in the world.

2020-12-0249 minThe Second Pint PodcastHero and Villain: Leicester CityLeicester City has plenty of heroes, especially in the recent history of the club following their miraculous Premier League title in 2016. A quiet French midfielder, whose experience matches the development of the club during the 2010s was Both's choice as a hero. Sean's choice for an lCFC villain was a 35-year-old hothead that was sacked by the club for punching a teammate. He sued Leicester City for 2.3 million pounds while the club was circling the financial drain and heading for administration.
2020-12-011h 24The Second Pint PodcastHero and Villain: Crystal PalaceWe had to push ourselves this week to track down a worthy hero and villain for Crystal Palace F.C. The little brother of London football clubs has a villain just south of it along the English coast. It all started with some dolphins, a penalty kick, a cup of coffee, and some spare change in 1976. The bad blood has existed ever since between Crystal Palace and Brighton.
The Eagles have existed in a world of "what ifs." Their trophy case is rather empty, but a young manage, Steve Coppell r in the 1980s pushed them to the...

There were too many heroes to only choose one for this podcast, so Both built a team of Everton Avengers, led by 1980s manager Howard Kendall BUT not 1930s superstar Dixie Dean. Howard Kendall lead Everton to numerous trophies, including the Cup Winners Cup and the greatest night in Goodison Park history when they defeated Bayern Munich in the semi-final.
On the flip side, Martin Atkinson, a referee not afraid to flash a card, draws a lot of ire from Everton fans for an incredible amount of bad...
2020-12-011h 12The Second Pint PodcastHero and Villain: Sheffield WednesdayOwnership in English football can prove to be quite the siren song for certain people. Some are seduced by it and win trophies, others drive clubs into the ground, call the fans nasty names, and take no responsibility. Dave Allen at Sheffield Wednesday was the latter, he took over the Owls in 2000 and the teams have not seen the light of the Premier League. His four years set the tone for two decades of despair.
Cult heroes in football come along more often than we think, but Sheffield Wednesday has a special place in their heart for...
2020-12-011h 08The Second Pint PodcastHero and Villain: SouthamptonThere's nothing like geographical hate among cities. Southampton and Portsmouth view themselves on two ends of the spectrum; however, they both label those spectrums differently. Southhampton sees Portsmouth as a loathsome place with fishermen who enjoy fish... and they might enjoy them a little bit too much. Portsmouth is a tough, fighting Navy town, and they think Southhampton is made up of yuppies enjoying their yachts and big ships. It's led to a long, hateful rivalry between two soccer clubs, but it's hard to find on pitch hatred that mirrors the hatred between the citizens of each city.

Billy Wright and Steve Bull played at very different times in Wolves history. Both men were loyal lifers for the club. One scored endless goals, the other crushed the spirits of strikers. Wright was a staple of English soccer, captaining the national team 90 times. Bull cracked England's squad even though he played for a Division 3 Wolves side in 1989.

Our philosophies differ and Both's knowledge outpaces Sean's by a healthy amount (pay no attention to the section where Sean gets Jack Wilshere and Aaron Ramsey confused....).

Leeds United is a club of worldwide fame. This midlands club, the only one in Leeds, England, has reached the highest of highs, but have also experienced the lowest of lows in English and European football. Financial ruin, and a run of bad luck, nearly left Leeds in complete shambles at the turn of the 21st century.

Their past, built out of the hot steel and rivet hammers of the shipbuilders, to their present, a side looking for a new identity in a new stadium with some rather upset fans. Their Academy program arguably won England the 1966 World Cup and also flooded the Premier League with great players in the early 2000s. Hooliganism, songs about bubbles, youth development, and the eternal struggle to remain relevant among their London...

Sean and Both decided it was time to learn about a non-Big 6 club, so they gave themselves some homework. Sean went all the way back to the 19th century and learned about the origins and history of Wolves; it's one of the OG clubs (and stadiums) in England. Both researched the present day club and how they have found success, particularly how they are targeting foreign players.

We rave about Tayshia's energy and ability to draw out the personality of the men because she actually cares about the process. We do have a Clare and Dale interlude, which was annoying.

The dates lacked energy, and need the guys to strip, unpack deep childhood issues, and throw on a blindfold for a quick awkward hug. Tiff and Sean dig through the episode and really just hope we're not talking for much longer about Clare and can get on to Tayshia.

We begin the pod with a quick recap of the 20 minute rose ceremony where Madison keeps Peter waiting and accepts a rose to Peter’s surprise (“Are you sure?”).
(8:55) Then we follow Tiff into the Reddit rabbit hole and checkout drink from a cup of “Unverified Tea.” Was Victoria a bully in high school? Some people have posted some unpleasant things that Victoria said...
2020-03-051h 23The Companion Pod: The OCSeason 3 Episode 9: Peter and his Sheilas in Gold Coast, AustraliaWe begin, not surprisingly, in an airplane hanger in California. Madison pulls Peter aside to half-heartedly ask him not to sleep with any of the women during their upcoming fantasy suite dates. Madison still doesn’t tell Peter she’s a virgin, and crosses her fingers that Peter really understands. Was this a fair? Is this comparable to what Luke P. did last season to Hannah. Should Peter have understood the clues around “faith” and “purity”? Peter is somewhat annoyed that Madison is trying to control his other two relationships with women that have declared their feelings for him more clearly...
2020-02-261h 04The Companion Pod: The OCHometown Throw Down and Other ThingsWe’re at the business end of the season. Peter goes to four hometowns and only meets three families.

(14:30) Then they jump into the hometowns and discuss them in the order they were filmed (not how they were shown on the show). They begin with Madison’s date in Auburn. Peter misses a half-court shot by a mile, Bruce Pearl shows up, Sir Charles Barkley leav...

Tiff and Sean start the show with some Bachelor gossip about a new show for the Bachelor franchise and what really happens at the end of the season. After a dip in the social media pool. Then they jump into their recap of the show (18:10) and get into Madison's fishing date and how Peter responded to the first real religious discussion of the season. Then Natasha makes her bid...
2020-02-121h 25The Companion Pod: The OCSeason 3 Episode 6: Enough is EnoughPeter is down to six women, and it feels like the show is really just getting down to business. Peter did some house cleaning this week, eliminating women and seeking out the women that really want to be there. It leads to some tough conversations and led us to wonder if any of these women actually want to be with Peter aside from Madison. Tammy and Mykenna provide the fans with the latest duel that ends with a mini 2-on-1 date where Mykenna brought her soapbox and some well-rehearsed diatribes.

(00:00-19:20). During the group date, the women played in the most important football game in Cleveland in the last 20 years. Shiann, Deandra, and Kelley were the stars on the field. The women were not messing around, except for Victoria P. who begged out of...

Victoria P. line dances her way into Peter's heart, and then she lands a haymaker on Alayah when she's on the proverbial ropes. Meanwhile while Peter might be in love with seven women and there seems to be a handful of women we've barely even met.

The prevalence and proliferation of "athleisure" can be tied to LuluLemon coming onto the scene. Folks are dressing to look like they just worked out. Leggings are popular, and a challenge in the workplace (3:30). The way we shop and the way brands advertise has also changed this decade. Instagram stories, apps, personal online shoppers all drove how we shop and what we wear. Kylie Jenner just made $600 million after selling a company built on her IG followers (32:00). Like...

Their past, built out of the hot steel and rivet hammers of the shipbuilders, to their present, a side looking for a new identity in a new stadium with some rather upset fans. Their Academy program arguably won England the 1966 World Cup and also flooded the Premier League with great players in the early 2000s. Hooliganism, songs about bubbles, youth development, and the eternal struggle to remain relevant among their London brethren marks this club's past and present. --- S...
