Episode 3121: The Importance Of Being Showy, Number 1 Slot, Mets Money, Barkley Breaks The Mould
Liverpool maintained their 100% record in the Champions League with a 1-0 win over Girona last night. Arne Slot wasn’t happy with their performance, but he couldn’t say enough nice things about his beloved number 1 keeper, Alisson Becker.
We discuss the Champions League, “our” Caoimhin, Jhon Duran, and Ken takes a victory lap on the importance of showing the ref that you’ve been fouled, something he already scolded the Irish players for after the loss to England.

We chat to Brian Murphy about the biggest contract in sports history, the Mets and The Yankees, and the baffling run of late and lucky wins for the Super Bowl champs, the Kansas City Chiefs.
Plus there’s baseball and babies on Curb, apple of my eye and Saquon Barkley breaking the mould.
