As always, we want YOU to have your say, get on camera and let us know what you thought of the game just ended, the team and direction of the club as a whole - or anything else you'd like to talk about! Just go to www.gooneropenmic.com to participate!

Our Thursday Night show this week welcomes back one of our oldest (yet youngest) mates - the one and only Tom Canton, a friendly educated and informative voice that wakes you up at 8am with transfer news and player evaluations, and tucks you in at night with sweet nothings whispered in your ear. At least that's what he does for Magic, he just assumed everyone got that. Anyways, enjoy the show!

06/14/2022 62 min 59 sec

Mike and Andy were joined today by our good friend Gab Marcotti, who, out of nearly 300 people who have appeared on the podcast, has known Mike the longest.  That's nothing to brag about though. We talked about the dreadful day in the Nations League for Mike and Andy's England and Gab's Italy, and whether it matters.   We talked about his great podcast on ESPN with Julien Laurens (The Gab and Juls Show), had some obligatory history lessons about Mike and Gab's teenage years together in London 73 years ago, talked about Chelsea's recent takeover and how it might affect the club in the coming years, and Gab gave us some absolute facts about what did and didn't happen with Arsenal's January pursuit of Dusan Vlahovic. Go to www.goonersvcancer.com and make sure to grab one or more of the last 130 entries for the Anfield 89 legend signed shirt - it's still "Up For Grabs Now!"

06/13/2022 81 min 15 sec

The TGP Boyz end their hibernation and have just learned that the season ended and we missed out on the top 4. Apparently the transfer window has also closed and we've missed out on every single player in world football and plan on starting 9 players each game next season. Is it time to panic? Has Andy become a Charlton fan? Has Mikey Herz cut his hair into the words "AC Milan?" Has Eoin fathered any more children? Will Magic Mike be wearing a shirt? Tune in to hear from 4 of the TGP 5 (Jared is opening a new Subway), reunited and it feels so good! Trust us, it feels good. I said, IT FEELS GOOD.
