Let’s pretend for a second that the first legs of the Champions League semis didn’t happen. Becuase if they hadn’t, then you would definitely want to hear the guys preview the semifinal round. If you must pay attention to reality, then just imagine we were previewing the second legs too. And to be fair, we did. A […]

#Pondcast: Title Hoisting and Fruit by the Foot
We’ll kick off this week’s #Pondcast by apologizing for the inordinate amount of 90’s nostalgia on this latest episode — the guys accidentally fell down an old commercial rabbit hole immediately prior to recording, and it permeated wide swaths of this week’s show. And no, that totally wasn’t an effort to wash over the fact that […]
#Pondcast: Ball Out for Mourinho
It was #1 vs #2 in a cataclysmic inner-city derby in Manchester this past weekend, with practically nothing hanging on the balance of the result — well, that’s if you ignore one side getting to lift an all-but-hoisted trophy at the end of regulation had they won. But what transpired was still highly enjoyable, an […]
#Pondcast: Is Your Club’s Season Over?
By this point in the campaign, it’s not unusual for many of the clubs in the English Premier League to have already had their fates settled. And on this week’s show, the guys do their best to not only review the weekend’s action but also to answer one question for all 20 sides: “Is our season […]
#Pondcast: Cupdate
Cups in England, Cups in Europe, Cups on this side of the pond too — well, not yet for the last one anyway. And on this week’s show, the guys spent considerable time reviewing last week’s action in both England’s FA Cup and UEFA’s European Cup Champions League. And believe it or not, we also […]
#Pondcast: Mou and the Missus
As we enter the home stretch of the European football season and begin to dip our toes into the domesteic game here in the States, there’s almost more football on than one can consume — including ones that record soccer podcasts. Nevertheless, with EPL, UCL and MLS, and USL preview to cover, this week also […]
#Pondcast: [Insert Club Name] Sucks
Your fifth favorite American soccer podcast is back with another episode, and on this week’s show we spend an inordinate amount of time talking about the suckiness of several London-based football clubs. Which ones? We’re not giving away all of our secrets here, so you’ll have to tune in to find out who and why […]
#Pondcast: Listen for Terrible Predictions
Every year, D.J. and Jeremy make predictions about the upcoming soccer seasons. And every year, those predictions tend to be pretty far off base. Lucky you, this week’s #Pondcast features the predictions of that nature once again for the upcoming Major League Soccer season which kicks off this weekend. We advise bookmarking this week’s show so you can […]
#Pondcast: Let’s Start Our Own Country
Of course, we covered the weekend’s Premier League action on this week’s show, including a marquee North London Derby much to DJ’s liking. City’s big win? Yup, that too. Chelsea getting back on track? Nope, we recorded on Sunday night — but the rest of Matchday 27’s action is in here. But the meat of this […]
#Pondcast: What *IS* a penalty?
There may have been two matchdays’ worth of English football since we last strapped ourselves into the #Pondcast recording machine last week, but the conversation was about just one match: Liverpool 2 Spurs 2. Jeremy and D.J. spent considerable time adding their thoughts on the thriller’s spectacular goals and refereeing decisions. We also forced Jeremy to […]
