  • The Newcastle United Appreciation Episode
    Oct 23 2023

    This week we invite you to take a deep dive with us into one of the most storied clubs of English football. Today, we’re talking about Newcastle United, a club rich with history that’s undergoing a renaissance this season with manager Eddie Howe at the helm. They’ve been around for nearly 130 years, so there’s a ton of history to cover. If you’re not familiar with the Magpies, we hope you will consider them as a favorite club to follow.

  • How the Premier League Transformed English Football
    Sep 26 2023

    Welcome to the 16th episode of The Artful Nutmeg. In this week’s episode, we’re talking about the most followed and widely recognized football league in the world, the English Premier League. The Premier League sits at the top of the English football pyramid and has been the most dominant league in the world. Now, in 1992, it shook the football world when teams in England’s first division went to change the economic structure of the English League and broke away to form their own league. Sounds like Super League to us. Today’s show is a deep dive into a story of big money, star players, and an ongoing fight for the soul of football.
