## Resource

#1000 | Ed and Paul reminisce about 1000 episodes of Rant Cast/NQAT, from its origins as a weekly phone call, to committing to recording every week, and then the expanding NQAT universe over the past couple of seasons. The conversation turns to United’s post-Fergie decline and Ed Woodward, the Glazers’ ownership, Ratcliffe’s restructuring, and optimism about Michael Carrick’s steadying impact, squad depth, transfers, and a Champions League schedule next season. 00:00 Introduction 00:27 The Lost 1000th Episode 02:00 Sunday's Game vs Brighton 03:48 Origins of the Podcast 05:47 How the Show Grew 10:10 YouTube and the Expanded NQAT Universe 13:58 Football Finance and Data Nerd Communities 19:25 United's Decline Since The Fergie Era 21:06 The Ed Woodward Years 25:57 Ratcliffe, Ineos and the Cultural Reset 39:14 Next Season: Squad Needs and the Summer Window 46:47 Michael Carrick 01:04:47 Wrapping Up If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.
