GW1 is live, and FPL is BACK. Emphasis on the back, because that weekend was a pain in my backside. In today's episode I will be talking through my main takeaways from every single match from this weekend, how it impacted my team, and my plans moving forward. We also have the results from my scout vs. the official FPL scout competition. Pertinent video to basically 'calma' from Let's Talk FPL's Andy: Link Link to join the mini league: Link Link to the Discord Server: Link Airtable ...

We are finally here ahead of Game Week 1. I walk through my draft in way too much detail to explain/ support my decisions. I discuss my thoughts on different chip strategies, alternative players I considered in my drafts throughout this month, and wrap the pod with my scout picks to beat the official FPL scout!

Today I go through my predictions for every single place in the Premier League this coming season. I explain my decisions (hopefully) backed up my logic, reason, stats, and complete bias. This isn't a typical FPL podcast episode this week, though I think the macro discussion of the EPL is skimped over too much in FPL, so feel free to pass or skip to a section you're interested in using the chapter markers.

The Ignore the Template Mini League is here! And prizes abound. On the podcast today, I detail the grand prize, the weekly prizes and all the things you need to do to be eligible for the prizes (its not much- basically set up an approved way I can send you money). In the main segment of the podcast I sort through the risky players to determine who might be wait and see, and others who might be worth the risk.

Getting closer to that GW1 deadline, I thought it pod-worthy to discuss all of my top 5 value pickes ahead of the 2025-26 FPL season. What does the data say, what is the context, who can improve their value over the course of next season, and who might lose value- all discussed on this week's episode.

Today is going to be a deep dive on strategy for Game Week 1. Specifcally, I will be calling out pros and cons, then doing a bit of a thought experiment where I steelman my own arguments for and against the bench boost for GW1. After wading through all the arguments, I give my overall take and then walk through my draft for BB GW1 along with a bunch of alternatives and context supporting my decisions (up to this point- it's all subject to change).

The game has finally launched. In this episode I will be reacting to all of the major changes FPL made for the upcoming 2025/26 season. I talk through my first 2 drafts (one of which is a GW1 BB draft), and then I provide some big updates on my end- Airtable spreadsheet improvements, and a new mini league prize.

Buckle up buttercup, we're covering all of the updates that have come out over the past 24-48 hours that will greatly impact FPL's next season in 2025/26. Hopefully this is the last of the updates FPL provide before the game launches, because there are some serious red flags. There are also some positive changes I like, but tune in to get an overview of the changes, and stick around for my analysis diving into why some of the changes are good, bad, or ugly, and how they can impact the game mo...

Buckle up buttercup, we're going to fix FPL in the next hour and twenty minutes. Jokes aside, there are issues the game of FPL faces in regards to gameplay and engagement. On this episode, I will be proposing several ideas that can be used to improved FPL. They are not all pie in the sky, or whacky ideas (though some of them certainly are), on the whole, these are practical, easy to implement changes FPL Towers can do to avoid staying stagnant in the fantasy premier league space.

For the final podcast of the season I will do a full review of my teams performance documenting the highlights and lowlights, chip usage, and big red/green arrow swings. Then in the second half of the podcast I review all of the best value added per million (VAPM) players for the 2024-25 season by position and pick my surprise and disappointment of each batch.

Free Hit for Game Week 34 is all that matters. Just like the FH chip, I am not focusing on last week or next week. It is all about this week and this week we are focusing on the best players who do not blank. I walk through my ideal FH34 team, talk about the optimized algorithm FH34 team, alternative players one might sub in, general FH ideas and strategies, and then I jump into questions from the Discord. Finally I quickly review my GW33 performance because it was a BB to forget, and then ed...
