It may have taken us ten shows into season seven to get our first guest on the Wrong Side of the Pond podcast, but in our opinion, it was mostly well worth the wait. That guest? Pat Brennan (@PBrennanENQ), The Cincinnati Enquirer’s beat writer covering the local soccer scene, joins us to earn his second […]

#Pondcast: Are the Foxes real (again)?
Like the sly animal for which their nickname derives, Leicester City have sneakily put together another strong start to a Premier League campaign. We focused on how the Foxes have managed to yet again pick off opposition sides with attractive football away from the bright lights of the supposed big six. In addition to the […]
#Pondcast: VAR and the death of everything
For seemingly the umpteenth time in this young season, Video Assistant Referee was back in the wrong kind of spotlight this past weekend in England. This time around, it stung both D.J.’s Spurs and Jeremy’s Chelsea — and unsurprisingly, we spent some to chatting about the merits of the system once again. The rest of […]
#Pondcast: Falling behind
After an international break-inspired break, the WSOTP Podcast is back and ready to distribute some white-hot soccer content to your device and into your ears.

#Pondcast: We’re laboring
Don’t ever say the #Pondcast team doesn’t put in the work to bring your enjoyable content, as D.J. and Jeremy convened on Labor Day to deliver you another hour’s worth of soccer listening pleasure.

#Pondcast: From bad to worse
It was a busy week on both sides of the pond, and we stuffed as much of it into this week’s episode of the Wrong Side of the Pond Podcast as we could. So what’s in store? VAR continues to make headlines in the Premier League, Chelsea continue to disappoint, MLS expansion in St. Louis, the new […]
#Pondcast: We’re already letting you down
We’re on to just our second episode of season seven, and we’re already delivering it a day late. While that’s not likely to let you down too much, we can imagine how it might be another difficult pill for Chelsea supporters to swallow. Of course, the guys spent plenty of time on the Blues heavy […]
#Pondcast: Season seven is here
Surprise: European soccer is back… and so is the #Pondcast! D.J. and Jeremy return for the seventh season of your eighth favorite American soccer podcast, and we kick things off with our traditional preseason predictions ahead of the Premier League’s return next weekend.

#Pondcast: The girls of summer
With our first live (short) show behind us, the guys returned to their metaphorical booth for their second summer special of 2019 — and there was a lot to talk about. In case you somehow missed it, the U.S. women’s national team lifted their second straight World Cup since we last recorded — and we devoted part […]
