With everything that’s transpired over the last week, it was inevitable that this week’s episode of the #Pondcast was going to be (another) long one. Two Premier League matchdays, a Champions League to prepare for, a long-awaited conclusion to the Copa Libertadores final, Save the Crew news, an MLS Cup champion crowned, and an NCAA College […]

#Pondcast: The worst Derby Day ever, subjectively
With the quick turnaround between Premier League matchdays in mind, we’re rolling out a steaming hot Pondcast a day earlier than normal this week. That means you get an extra day to digest each of D.J. and Jeremy’s experiences with the Premier League’s efforts to get you to waste two-thirds of your entire Sunday, a.k.a. super […]
#Pondcast: Thursdays are for… soccer?
If you were looking for 90 minutes of commentary covering Spurs v Chelsea, MLS Cup Playoffs, the U.S. Men’s National Team, and Copa Libertadores final drama… this week’s WSOTP podcast is just for you! The guys touched on all of those subjects and more on this week’s show, reunited back in the same studio after […]
#Pondcast: Recorded Live from Quarantine
Despite picking up a nasty bug while in Chicago over the weekend, we managed to hold Jeremy to his weekly podcasting duties and pump out this week’s show — from an isolation chamber in his basement anyway. But even with great distance between them, the guys managed to rundown another big weekend of soccer on […]
#Pondcast: Drogba Always Pictured His Last Match in Kentucky
One of the legends of the game’s recent era will call time on his days as a professional footballer this weekend in Louisville, Kentucky. Just the way he pictured it as a child in the Ivory Coast, Didier Drogba will look to cap off his glittering career by leading his Phoenix Rising FC to an […]
#Pondcast: Thanks for the Memories
Last weekend’s domestic action takes center stage on this week’s episode of the #Pondcast, as D.J. and Jeremy dissect MLS Decision Day results and look ahead at the resulting MLS Cup Playoff matchups coming at us starting this week. We also devoted a sizable portion of the show to looking back at FC Cincinnati’s now-completed […]
#Pondcast: We’re Old Enough to Still Call Things ‘Lit’
It’s a rare occasion when a marquee Premier League matchup lives up to its billing, but that wasn’t the case this past weekend when Chelsea vs Manchester United produced enough sparks to be called “lit”. As you might expect, D.J. and Jeremy discussed the goals and touchline drama before taking a look around the rest […]
#Pondcast: We’ll Have to Call Him Jessi or Something
Though barrenness of yet another international break is upon us, the latest #Pondcast episode has also arrived to take you back in time to relive last week’s club football action instead. On this week’s show, we contemplate how Mourinho managed to survive a dagger-wielding Rafa Benítez, why Liverpool-City failed to live up to the impossible expectations we […]
#Pondcast: A Bad Week for José
Two defeats in a week would be bad enough for Manchester United’s José Mourinho, but falling to a Championship side managed by one of your former proteges and following that up with a loss to the most chaotic club in your own division certainly makes the two losses sting a little bit more. And since […]
#Pondcast: Into the Wilds of Europe
The UEFA Champions League group stage kicked off last week, wildly some might even say. Liverpool triumphed in a goalfest with Jordan Saint-Germain, Spurs and the Cityzens lodged disappointing losses to former giants, and Manchester United found victory on the pitch while still taking L’s in their locker room. Then in American matters, there are […]
