Summary
In this episode we chat about a milestone birthday for James, talking on planes, and first impressions of the World Cup – in particular the fact the games are being broken into four quarters by unnecessary 'hydration breaks' which are being used to introduce more advertising slots. Beyond the commercial elements, they also have a material impact on the games, and it's not positive. We then round up the Arsenal involvement in the games so far, and some of the results we've seen, before we answer listener questions about changes the medical staff, transfer stories involving Christos Tzolis and Ayyoub Bouaddi, what we might do at right back with injury worries over Jurrien Timber and Ben White, potential surprise sales, what a midfield arrival might mean for Myles Lewis-Skelly, and lots more.

| 0:20.0 | Good morning, Andrew. How are you today? |
| 0:23.1 | I'm okay. I'm slowly on the end. You know, still got the lingering effects of whatever this thing was that I |
| 0:30.5 | came back from Budapest with. But I'm, I'm less bad. I'm coughing up less stuff than I was a week ago. So I guess that's progress. |
| 0:40.4 | That's good. The graph is going in the right direction. |
| 0:43.0 | Yes, it is. It is. I know that's a lovely image to start the podcast with, so I apologize to everybody for that. |
| 0:50.0 | But, you know, I could have been more graphic about it. I wasn't. |

| 1:11.5 | I won't say how old I'm going to be, |

| 1:16.1 | So the mathematicians among you may make the leap. |
