"Aubameyang's Poisoned Orange Juice"
This episode was recorded before the US were terminated in Trinidad, so Brooks and Theo open with a few words on the shame of American soccer. But in the main episode, Brooks, Theo, and Ryan have dirty tackles for clubs that sell real merchandise for fake players, creepy Uncle Steve, and Dr. Gordon Strachan. Plus, Bob Bradley advertises his latest product, Harry Kane trademarks his boringness, and Life Ref decisions are made on whether Andres Iniesta and Andrea Pirlo should continue their playing careers.
