  • Inside the Away End, Social Cam Chaos & Arsenal Keep Marching On

    Inside the Away End, Social Cam Chaos & Arsenal Keep Marching On
    May 14 2026
    Josh is joined this week by Arsenal Social Media Editor Gianluca Freschi, who steps in for Frimmy and there’s plenty to discuss after another huge week in Arsenal’s season. The pair relive the nerve-shredding 1-0 win over West Ham at London Stadium, with Gian giving his perspective from inside the away end as Leandro Trossard’s late winner sent Arsenal supporters into chaos. From David Raya’s huge saves to the tension surrounding West Ham’s disallowed equaliser, the hosts reflect on an emotionally draining afternoon. Josh also shares insight from inside the dressing room after full-time and discusses one of his favourite pieces of Arsenal social content — the pitchside celebration footage after Trossard’s goal that put supporters right in the middle of the chaos. There’s also reaction from the match-winner himself, as Trossard reflects on the decisive goal and Arsenal’s mindset heading into the final weeks of the season. Elsewhere, there’s a preview of episode two of Declan Rice’s Raising the Bar series, featuring a trip to McLaren HQ with Formula One star Lando Norris. Another huge week. Another huge episode.

    Frimmy and Josh are back in the Emirates Stadium studio after one of the biggest nights in Arsenal’s modern history as the Gunners are through to the UEFA Champions League final after beating Atlético Madrid in the semi-finals. Frimmy reflects on his trip to Madrid for the first leg, from the incredible atmosphere inside the Metropolitano to Atlético fans launching toilet rolls across the stands before kick-off. Working pitchside behind the goal, he relives Viktor Gyökeres’ thunderous penalty and the noise from the travelling Arsenal support. Back in north London, the pair discuss the unforgettable scenes at the Emirates for the second leg, with thousands of supporters lining the streets to welcome the team bus before kick-off. Josh shares Declan Rice’s reaction to the atmosphere, while Frimmy admits the emotion that the full-time celebrations reduced him to. There’s also discussion around Viktor Gyökeres reaching 20 goals in all competitions in his debut season and the conversation also turns to the Fulham win, Per Mertesacker’s Emirates farewell tribute and Frimmy’s latest failed attempt to say hello to Thierry Henry. Another historic week. Another huge episode. Make sure you’re subscribed wherever you get your podcasts, and head to YouTube, Arsenal.com or The Arsenal app to watch the full show.

    Semi-Final Fever, Contract Announcement Insights & Arsenal Marathon Men
    May 2 2026
    Josh is joined by Emma Holbrook in the studio this week with Frimmy away on Champions League duty, and there’s plenty to get into as our season reaches boiling point on multiple fronts. The pair kick things off with a look at the men’s Champions League semi-final first leg in Madrid, as Arsenal return with a hard-earned draw against Atlético — setting up a huge night under the lights at the Emirates. With the Gunners still unbeaten in Europe this season, attention quickly turns to what’s needed to get over the line and reach the final. After that, Emma reflects on a huge week that saw Arsenal Women put seven past Leicester at Emirates Stadium. Momentum is building at exactly the right time ahead of a massive Champions League semi-final second leg against Lyon. There’s also a fascinating look behind the scenes at how Arsenal’s contract renewal announcements come to life, from Stina Blackstenius’ fan-focused reveal to Steph Catley’s dog Calvin stealing the show, and Leah Williamson marking 20 years at the club with a blockbuster production. We also hear from Leah herself, with a special excerpt from her contract renewal interview with Emma, reflecting on her journey, her connection to the club and what still drives her after two decades in red and white. Josh shares stories from a recent Q&A with Charlie George for the premiere of the 'King of Highbury' , there’s a nod to Aaron Ramsey’s London Marathon effort, plus David Seaman pays tribute to former teammate Alex Manninger and reflects on his impact during Arsenal’s 1998 double-winning season. Another massive week, another packed episode. Make sure you’re subscribed wherever you get your podcasts, and head to YouTube, Arsenal.com or The Arsenal app to watch the full show.
