That Rascal (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Alex is back from (mostly) fighting off a sore throat to discuss managerial changes ahead of the international break. Alexander Blessin is back in the Bundesliga with Borussia Mönchengladbach, but is it another case of the right man in the wrong place? Christian Titz has been replaced by Sandro Wagner at Hannover, is this another Fortuna Düsseldorf? Also on the pod: a brief recap of the weekend's football, Carles Martínez's shirt, and which player was described as a rascal. Music by Anastas
From Omicron Persei 8 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Alex, from the planet Omicron Persei 8 reviews another weekend of German football. Schalke win 0-0 against Bayern, Elversberg continue to dominate over German football (getting boring now) with their 4-3 win over Borussia Mönchengladbach, and Wolfsburg and Cottbus draw 4-4. Also on the pod, the Loris Karius redemption arc, who is scared of walking, and where a young Darmstadt defender came from. Music by Anastasia Chubarova from Pixabay .
Planning the Parade (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Alex gets ready for his trip to Elversberg at the end of the season to celebrate the team's Bundesliga win, not that we're overreacting or anything. This week's Going Deutsch covers the opening round of the Bundesliga and third matchday of the 2. Bundesliga. Elversberg have a dream start (and a bit of déjà vu) by beating Bayer Leverkusen at home. Schalke and Werder both lose by three away, but only one is concerning, and St. Pauli cause panic following their relegation blues. Music by Anastas
The Damned Eintracht (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Going Deutsch returns after far too long to look ahead to the 2026/27. Alex previews all eighteen teams and asks the big questions: Which Bayern will win the league? Can Dortmund or Stuttgart surprise? Can Alex pronounce names? How many times can one man say 'project' and 'stability'? Are Paderborn doomed? These and more are addressed ahead of the new Bundesliga season. Music by Anastasia Chubarova from Pixabay .
