A lot can change in a little time and this week’s episode of the Pondcast is a testament to that. On our last show, D.J. and Jeremy sat together talking about the approaching climaxes of the European campaigns and the optimism following the return of the North American domestic seasons. But this week? We followed the CDC’s […]

Despite a pandemic sweeping the globe, the world of soccer chugged on this past week… though there were a lot fewer people out to watch it chug along. In England, Liverpool fear they might have to lift a trophy in an empty ground. In MLS, we’ve already seen decreased crowds thanks to covid-19 fears — […]

Soccer was inescapable this past week. In the mornings, there was the Premier League to feast on — including Liverpool finally stumbling and a pile up of sides around the final Champions League places. In the afternoon and evenings, there was MLS week one to keep our cup’s full. And we didn’t even get the […]

  Our seventh-annual MLS preview is here, and D.J. and Jeremy once again hit on some of the big topics surrounding the league’s yearly spring launch before tackling a bevy of predictions for the 2020 campaign. We also asked our listeners to get in on the action with their own forecasts for awards such as […]

After a week off due to a truncated Premier League schedule last week, D.J. and Jeremy returned to the booth this week to a bit of a firestorm. For Jeremy, it was a frustrating loss at home for his Chelsea to the damned United combined with a bunch of results that help narrow the race […]

Everyone’s favorite soccer personality, Video Assistant Review, spent another weekend in the spotlight in England thanks to a trio of controversial calls in Spurs’ surprising upset of Manchester City. So you can expect we spent a fair amount of time (again) talking about VAR on this week’s show. After wrapping up the rest of the […]

With no show last week, the guys normally would have had lots of ground to cover to make up lost time… but not much has changed in the Premier League. Liverpool are still running away with things, and the rest of the pack chasing behind them seem incapable of finding any consistency. We run things […]

After surviving the early year bugs that seem to be doing the rounds, a scruffy D.J. and worn-down Jeremy reconvened following a week off to examine Liverpool’s continued dominance — and why it’s okay to admit they’ve spent money to get that way. Too, we looked at Sergio Agüero’s record-setting day against Aston Villa, Bournemouth’s […]

In perfectly unplanned irony, the 20th episode of season seven of the #Pondcast also happens to be the first episode of 2020. And we used the special occasion as an opportunity to reflect back over the previous decade that was in the wild and crazy world of football. First, we took a peek back at […]

Honestly, we’re not. So what if the guys tried to record on their normal Monday night session and didn’t. Just look at it this way: a delay meant D.J. and Jeremy could squeeze in most of the midweek action into the latest show, too. So in reality, this episode is more like a bonus episode. Right?! So, […]
