Kai’s moment and the world‑beating Gunners

We’re back in the Emirates Stadium studio for another packed edition of The Dispatch. It’s a slightly different line‑up this week, with Josh James joined by Gianluca Freschi, as Frimmy is off capturing content for future episodes! There’s only one place to start: the Carabao Cup semi‑final win over Chelsea. Gian takes us inside the press box for Kai Havertz’s dramatic late clincher, plus the incredible post‑match tunnel chaos that produced some of our favourite content of the season so far. From there, we look back on a historic week for Arsenal Women, who were crowned inaugural FIFA Champions Cup winners after a wild, rain‑soaked 3–2 victory over Corinthians at home in N5. Hear insight from Caitlin Foord’s extra‑time heroics, Lotte Wubben‑Moy’s leadership, and Emma Holbrook’s cameo message (trophy in hand). We also break down the latest milestones for Mikel Arteta’s side: 20 clean sheets, 30 wins, two Hale End debuts, and a January full of record‑breaking away form. Plus, Gian opens up Content Corner with updates on Arsenal’s brand‑new Reddit launch, the debut of Agony Arsenal with Steph Catley, and… yes… the moment Frimmy’s trousers fell down on Away Days. All that, and a little tease of next week’s mystery on‑the‑road special episode. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
