Episode 109 - They Killed our Parrot
Wednesday Mar 27, 2024
Wednesday Mar 27, 2024
One whole solid hour of us talking almost exclusively about how much we hate Arsenal Football club.
Why? Because there was no game, the England match was boring and because we can. Clearly the dirty Woolwich scum live rent free in our heads after all!
If you hate Arsenal too, please give us a listen and we hope you enjoy this unrelenting hate-fest.

Episode 108 - Something About Micky
Thursday Mar 21, 2024
Thursday Mar 21, 2024
Dags, Socs and Dave bring you this week's episode as Elio is spared the chore of unpicking a horrible 3-0 defeat to Fulham fresh off the back of such an encouraging win at Villa Park.
We try our best to ascertain exactly how Spurs managed to play it quite so Spursily and what this means for the short term and for the bigger picture - with a slight glance forward to next season and Phase 2 of the Big Ange project.
There's all the usual unplanned pitstops and deviations along the way as we continue to find new and innovative ways to distract ourselves from the pain of describing a Spurs defeat.

Episode 107 - Puking with Ecstasy
Wednesday Mar 13, 2024
Wednesday Mar 13, 2024
The good times are back! Dave calls in sick, presumably in an attempt to avoid our insufferable delight as Spurs roll back the months to happier times with our most dominant and important win for some time - perhaps not coincidentally achieved by a lineup resembling that of the pre-Chelsea meltdown era.
Dags, Elio and Socs take great joy in dissecting each goal and all the major players, taking time to praise nearly every player on the pitch and their collection of wonderful contributions (including John McGinn's), as we never know quite how long this feeling will last.
There's also a fairly appalling preview of the Fulham game in the absence of our regular opposition scout - typical Big 6 fans stuck in our own bubble.
Speaking of appalling - we also get stuck in to the latest developments brought about by ENIC that will see season ticket prices rise and senior concessions impacted and exactly what we think of all that.
A lot to get out teeth into this week and we attack it with all the zest of a rattled Scotsman scything down a runaway young left back. We hope you enjoy listening along.

Episode 106 - Elio Interrupts
Friday Mar 08, 2024
Friday Mar 08, 2024
Just like Spurs' winning goals at the weekend, this week's PDP comes slightly later than ideally scheduled but we do our best to review another strong second half showing to see off a particularly unthreatening Palace side and complete a double over them this season.
Dags, Elio, Socs and Dave break down a good win and one that leaves us chasing the tails of our next opponents, Aston Villa - in the developing battle for that all-important 4th (or is it 5th?) spot for the CL places - before we look ahead to that enticing Super Sunday fixture.
There's also a brand new, possibly semi-permanent and certainly extra obnoxious feature introduced early on that I'm sure you will all hate or love - we're still not sure. Enjoy!

Episode 105 - Crazy in Frog (Quick-Fire Quiz!)
Tuesday Feb 27, 2024
Tuesday Feb 27, 2024
It's quiz time!
Without a match or much particularly interesting Spurs chat to get through, we decided not to leave you empty handed this week (because we love you, listeners) and instead bring you a quiz all about Spurs' season so far.
Elio, Socs and Dave fight it out to be named quiz champion in a fast paced, chaotic, poorly officiated, horribly planned and disgustingly corrupt trivia extravaganza.
The only thing worse than the quality of the quiz itself is the quality of the actual audio - this week coming to you in a virtually unedited, raw and compressed format (due to technical difficulties) which we think actually adds to the charm of this dumpster fire of a podcast.
Controversy, comeback and comical buzzers - this quiz has it all, except for a competent quiz master. Try and play along at home and see if you would have beaten the winner's score!

Episode 104 - Poundshop Zokora
Tuesday Feb 20, 2024
Tuesday Feb 20, 2024
Wolves have done it to us again - after another false dawn both in terms of form and fitness, Spurs find themselves on the receiving end of a second 2-1 defeat at the hands of Wolves this season, once again with key players missing and others still on the mend.
Dags, Elio, Socs and Dave sift through the rubble after a disappointing loss that leaves us just outside of the top 4 with a resurgent Man United breathing down our necks.
There are selection headaches ahead of upcoming games, discussions focussing on specific offenders within the team and some chat about how to fix our problems in the short-term through some tactical tweaks and in the long-term through some targeted transfers.
We hope you find some joy among our misery - and just to make Socs' week, please email us (with whatever you like) at plusdavepodcast@gmail.com. Follow our Twitter while you're there @PlusDavePodcast and, above all, stay classy.

Episode 103 - Full of Beans
Wednesday Feb 14, 2024
Wednesday Feb 14, 2024
Just like Big Ange, the PDP has a full roster of stars to pick from once again for the first time in what feels like forever. Elio returns from Africa (along with Sarr and Bissouma) and joins Dags, Dave and Socs for a look back over yet another dramatic last minute Spurs winner, this time against Brighton!
This episode analyses the win, some of the key players, including those from the bench and the substitutions as a whole, shining a spotlight on a few specific individuals for various reasons.
There's also a brief preview of Wolves and some completely unnecessary tangents, including a quickly whittled-together Spurs African XI for your enjoyment.

Episode 102 - You Should Have Cashed Out
Wednesday Feb 07, 2024
Wednesday Feb 07, 2024
Two matches to look back on this week, containing 9 goals, 4 points for Spurs, last minute disappointment, 7 minutes in heaven and a trio of Richarlison goals.
Much like Spurs themselves we soldier on without our talisman with Elio joining Sarr and Bissouma on the list of Africa-bound absentees. Man-behind-the-scenes and amateur statistician, Petros makes a follow up cameo very much in the scenes, alongside Dags, Socs and Dave.
There's also a preview of Brighton, a transfer round up including an exciting young signing and some tasty Summer rumours.
There is, of course, all the usual nonsense and wild tangents that regular listeners have come to expect. Hope you all enjoy!

Episode 101 - 101 and Out

Aussie's dream is over!
Spurs are down to just one competition left to play for and will sadly have to settle for winning 'the single'.
In a slightly patched up PDP team, in the absence of Elio and Dave, Dags is joined by Socs and the team's long serving producer/sound guy/tech support and occasional editor, Petros - guest on a few episodes of days gone by, who has come armed with his thoughts on Man City, a lot of stats and even some nice words for the pod.
The team weighs in on a disappoint but probably deserved cup exit and looks ahead to the final few days of the January window as well as a clash with Brentford who sadly look to be signing Antonio Nusa despite our lovely discussion of him as a prospect for us!
Join us for our best attempt at a positive podcast despite the early cup exit!

Monday Jan 15, 2024
Join us for a Plus Dave first in celebration of a century of podcasts - this is our first (and maybe last) ever live streamed podcast, special shoutout to those of you who made it to YouTube to watch live, for the rest of you, we hope you enjoy it here.
On this 100th episode special we look back on our 2-2 draw at Old Trafford, including a few noteworthy performance and debuts. We also look ahead to the Man City cup clash that follows and, once again, take a look at the rest of our season and the league in which none other than Ange Postecoglou sees us as 'title contenders'... exciting stuff!
Hope the finished product is acceptable and hope you all enjoy!
