Thanks for listening
This week's show — sponsored by Walkabout Glasgow — Michael, Keith and Andy are back with their Week 5 highlights.
From the 49ers–Seahawks thriller to the Jaguars' dramatic London win over the Eagles, the lads pick out the results that changed their minds. The Vikings remain unbeaten, while the Chargers and Titans are still searching for their first win.
Inspired by James Ahervey's listener question, we debate the value of a reliable backup quarterback. With Tyler Huntley and Drew Lock stepping in, could a dependable QB2 be the difference between keeping a season alive and watching it unravel? We also ask whether either of the 0–5 teams can turn things around and finish with a winning record.
Then it's clock-management chaos, costly fumbles and a tricky running-back dilemma: would you take 100 yards and a fumble, or 70 yards and a safe pair of hands? Plus, after five weeks, which teams do we trust — and which have us worried?
From Scotland to the NFL — this is Grid Irn-Cru.

GRID IRN-CRU | 2026 | WEEK 4
This week's show – sponsored by Walkabout Glasgow – Mikey, Graeme and Keith are back with their Week 4 highlights.
This week's listener question comes from Danny in Fuerteventura, who's sounding the fraud alert on Buffalo: did the Bills' unbeaten start tell us how good they are, or how poor their opponents were? The lads put Buffalo under the microscope and ask who else might be getting more hype than they deserve.
There's also a look at the NFL's latest London outing and what a Scottish fan event could look like, before tackling the injuries and refereeing decisions shaping the season. With four weeks in the books, it's time to pick out the contenders, call out the pretenders and put some early Super Bowl predictions on the line.

GRID IRN-CRU | 2026 | WEEK 3
This week's show - sponsored by Walkabout Glasgow - Danny, Mikey and Keith are back with their Week 3 highlights.
This week's subscriber question comes from Bears fan Grant, who asks: "With Case Keenum and Aaron Rodgers getting wins this weekend, does this show that old-school QB development is better than the modern-day development of QBs?"
After three weeks, the lads call out the biggest disappointments so far. Danny's got the big one this week though - he reckons the Patriots' problems run a lot deeper than Drake Maye, and he's not backing down from that take.
