The guys spend way too much time talking about a 2:2 draw but hey, it was a draw that ended up with the fellas in the brustring earning UCL qualification for the second time in three years! Along the way Matt, Ted, and Travis all chat the match that was - an away match to clinch big time UCL money on the road at Frankfurt - as well as what this means for some of the fellas on the squad. When it's all said and done, the guys wrap up with a look at the bottom of the table and the greatest league in the world - the 2.B - before giving some unconvincing predictions for the Pokal finale against a tiny, tiny club from some place called ... Munich. Yikes!
-
The fellas break down the big happenings of the penultimate matchday of the season as the guys get a big win at home versus Bayer while the Frauen get a big win at home to seal the B.2 deal and earn promotion to the Bundesliga for the first time in club history! Along the way, Matt, Ted, and Travis wax poetic about RaMonster's play, Jeff's shut down D, Demi being flipping everywhere, and Deniz getting off the "struggle bus." The guys then dive into some Q & A and ponder who will be playing for Germany come this summer and wrap up with a look at the final - and huge! - match of the regular season, a Champions League deciding match at Frankfurt!

Matt, Ted, and Travis chat the draw that felt like a win, the 3:3 match on the road in our home away from home, Hoffenheim. The guys shout out the Frauen for all but sealing (fingers crossed!) promotion and then dive into a strange, strange match and ponder was it bad luck or good luck or ... no luck ... that helped VfB save their UCL dreams with another late result, this time thanks to super sub Tiago. The guys then try to figure out what's what going forward from the roster to the big upcoming match at home versus Bayer, another team aiming for a top four finish!

It was an odd week for our VfB as we reached the finals of the Pokal for the second year in a row thanks to some late dramatics but dropped - or gained? - points against a relegation threatened Bremen. So what to think? Well, Matt and Travis attempt to break the match down via some major talking points, like SCF being a tough out to Daxo getting his first start in what seems like forever. Oh, and we try to fix our tech and sound. Fingers crossed ... just like we're crossing our fingers for the upcoming ENORMOUS match at TSG!
-
Ted and Travis struggle to talk about a match that was complete domination ... and jeez, how can you be bummed about a four goal win?! Well, listen in and find out!

It's episode 190 and Matt, Ted, and Travis attempt to break down the international week in which several VfBers saw the field - in Stuttgart, no less - alongside the Bundesliga match versus second place BVB. To do so, the fellas give their "winners" and "losers" of the last two weeks, which, of course includes both Deniz and Sebastian - on both sides - as well as Dan Hurley. YES, THAT DAN HURLEY! If you're a winner, you'll join us!
*Apologies for the sound on this one ... check out our youtube channel for a clearer audio ... we'll do better (maybe) next time!

Ted and Travis chat up the week that was, a rough end to VfB's UEL campaign at Porto and a fantastic bounce-back win over the Flaming Pineapples of Augsburg. Along the way they chat the Frauen's record setting match versus M05, VfBDeutschland, and goals going forward as the season is winding down to what should be a crazy exciting ending!
-
It's a big week of ups and downs for the fellas (and Ffrauen!) in the brustring, so Matt, Ted, and Travis try to cover all the big news, from the frustrating loss at home to Porto in the UEL to the fantastic result at home versus RBL. Along the way the guys chat the big Frauen match versus Mainz, the form of Deniz, the role of Ata, the upcoming schedule, and of course the Irish holiday of St. Patty's Day in America ... a holiday that we think is ... um ... Irish ... we think...?
-
It's another odd match versus Mainz and why not bring back self-professed Mainz expert Rob! Rob, who has actually visited the place, flew back home just for this episode while Ted wanted to express his thanks to whoever came up with daylight savings time. Along the way they also find time to chat about the match that was - an unlucky/lucky draw - and that match that will be - the UEL match at home versus Porto - and try to figure out ... what's more important ... the UEL or the Buli? OR BOTH?!
-
The crew of Matt, Ted, and Travis are back together and chatting a wild couple weeks, focusing on the loss at home versus Celtic - which was basically a win - and the big win versus Wolfsburg - which cemented both clubs' status at various ends of the table. To dive into this one, the guys steal from https://vertikalpass.de/ most recent article and react to their fantastic writing. As such, the fellas chat about the last three years, Deniz, Seb, Chris, and finally, Porto and Mainz!
-
It's episode 185 and with Matt on international duty and Ted on daddy duty it's up to Travis to attempt to break down a wild week in which VfB destroyed one of the most iconic clubs in the world but then almost lost to one of the worst clubs in the Bundesliga. But ... if you're a VfB fan, you knew this was around the corner! Join Travis for the shortest episode in our pod history ... but at least he dressed up for it?!
-
Jake from 50+ Döner, an "unbiased" KOE supporter, joins us for the third time to talk the most recent match, a tough 3:1 win for the fellas in the Brustring. While avoiding talking about the match as much as possible, the guys do talk the VfBFrauen, the 108 matches between these two, coaching, goalkeeping, officiating, ESPN+, Julian Chabot, kits, and why doesn't Fritzle wear pants.
It's pretty much everything you'd expect from two fellas who enjoy the company of stuffed animals. Enjoy!

It's episode 183 and Matt, Ted, and Travis are so psyched about the SuperBowl that they ... record through it. Anyway, they chat two gritty matches, two tough results, one big win, and one disappointing - but perhaps expected? - loss, both in the cold, cold confines of the north. Along the way Travis' computer tries to crash, they keep checking out the score of the American football match, and they give their opinion on the halftime show and the commercials ... with the latter being somewhat like the FCSP match ... not really worth watching.
Like this epis ...
Wait ... what?!

It's episode 182 and Ted and Travis chat two big wins - a UEL win over Young Boys and a Buli win over Freiburg, both stressful in their own ways! We start off celebrating Nic Cage - as you'd expect! - and former #19's and then dive into the great start versus Young Boys and the great finish versus Freiburg. Along the way we tie in as many Nic Cage films as we can ... and as he's got over 117 to his name, we've plenty to choose from! So join us and "Get in the Cage" as we break down the Europa League and the derby-not-derby that is Freiburg!
-
It's episode 181 so we try something new with our audio intro and only mess it up for the first two minutes of the episode! But don't worry, we end up chatting about what is most important - THE RED KITS AND THE NON MATCHING RED SHORTS - so you know you've come to the right place to chat all things VfB (as long as it's about color schemes). We also chat the rough match in Italy, the get-right match in Gladbach, and the matches coming up - a seemingly easy one at home versus old friends Young Boys and a seemingly tough one versus local neighbors Freiburg. All that and Deniz as mayor?!
-
It's a short week so it's a short episode as Matt, Ted, and Travis quickly break down the matches against Frankfurt and Union and then preview the upcoming matches versus Roma and Gladbach!
-
It's our first episode of the New Year and what a way to start 2026 on the pitch than a win away at Leverkusen, a club VfB hadn't enjoyed a win against in 15 matches (which gives Travis a chance to break out one of his favorite quotes of all-time from the great Vitus Gerulaitis!). The guys chat the match, the players, and the tactics before saying hello to one newbie and goodbye to an old friend. It was meant to be a short episode as we've got some more matches this week but can you blame the fellas for going over the top after such a big win?!
-
It's our final episode of 2025 and who better to join Matt, Ted, and Travis as they dish out some holiday dinner awards than ESPN's very own Derek Rae! After chatting about their fav holiday TV episodes, the quartet then hand out some major awards - The Roast Turkey Award ... the Glazed Ham Award ... the Fruit Cake Award ... and of course ... THE MAULTASCHEN AWARD! The fellas then wrap up episode 178 by putting some white and red gifts under the VfB tree before Derek "The Oracle" Rae makes his annual - and bold! - VfB prediction for the Rückrunde!
Happy holidays all!

It's episode 177 and Matt, Ted, and Travis attempt to break down an intense but somewhat forgettable match versus TSG, a club that we just can't seem to beat, even at home. After chatting the match, the guys jump into the potential awards they and the VfB Americana OFC will be handing out for the 2025/2026 season. Who will win the Roast Turkey Award? Glazed Ham? The dreaded Fruitcake Award?! Find out as the fellas unintentionally insult pretty much everyone ... but what would a family dinner be like without family members offending one another?!
Happy holidays all!

It's episode 176 and we're ... all over the place. Michigan. OSU. Winter lagers. PodCats. Children who don't appreciate VfB. Advent calendars. And somehow ... after a while ... VfB. We chat VfBMTA and the weird UEL match that was and how the entire club - from top to bottom - performed admirably. Then we talk SVWVfB and the big Buli match that was ... and how SVW's hair was pretty much all we paid attention to. We chat eight different goal scorers, Deniz, El K, Jamie, Ata, Jeff, Demi, Alex, and, of course ... PodCat.
Apologies for the intro and exit ... we ran out of free stuff on this platform!
