| 0:00.0 | Your home. Day, done. Work, done. Being crammed onto a packed bus. Done. Phoneing your friend back, the one who likes to talk. A lot. Done. And wearing a bra? Yeah, that's definitely done. |
| 0:17.5 | Taking your bra off feels great. And so does getting your breast screening sorted. It can |
| 0:21.9 | detect cancer long before you can even feel it or more likely put your mind at rest. So when |
| 0:26.5 | the NHS invites you, save thelog.com. That's right. We had to do a podcast after what transpired on Wednesday evening with Arsenal overturning a 2-0 deposit to beat Real Madrid, 3-0 on the night, 3-2 on aggregate. |
| 1:01.3 | Could have been 5 or 6-0, I think, on the night. |
| 1:04.0 | And maybe had we not had VAR for this game, it might well have been. |
| 1:07.5 | But we thought we'd knock out a slightly short than usual podcast just |
| 1:11.9 | to get some sunshine into your lives and into your ears and get that kind of celebratory feeling. |
| 1:18.3 | And with me to do that as ever is Jamie Spanger. Jamie, how are you feeling this morning? |
| 1:22.7 | Tim, I'm very, very good. I can't wipe the smile of my face. Honestly, very sleep deprived. |

| 1:33.0 | But, oh, Tim, what a night at the Emirate Stadium. I'm absolutely buzzing. |
| 1:37.7 | Yeah, absolutely. I did kind of much the same. I got in around midnight. I didn't go to bed to about half-past one. And, you know, energetic four-year-old waking me up at half-past six, you know, |
