This week we take a deep dive into the economical differences between the Premier League and the Bundesliga, and the cultural effects related to it. Joe also takes us through an academic paper he wrote on TV sponsorship in the two leagues, whilst Gareth goes head first into the German 50+1 rule of club ownership.

We also have another go at some Wikipedia football career challenges (no prizes for guessing which one of us is still nailing these.)

If you have any questions, football trivia or topics you want us to discuss (or if you just wanna swing by and say hi), here's all our socials;
