Against all logic, the crazy world of soccer somehow managed to get a little crazier since our last show. And none of that had to do with the weekend of Premier League action, which itself was a little crazy. We took our normal walkthrough of our the English top-tier — and some momentary dalliances into some […]

#Pondcast: Bye Bye Bruce
Given the chaos in American soccer over the last week, a return to the Premier League offered at least a partial distraction for the guys going into this week’s show. And though 40% of last weekend’s actions ended in drab draws — hello, Liverpool-United — the remaining six results packed plenty of drama: Palace’s surprising […]
#Pondcast: Nuclear Fall Out
While we had originally planned to take the week off due to the international break, the “most embarrassing moment in U.S. Soccer history” went and happened, forcing D.J. & Jeremy into emergency action. In the chaotic hours that followed the USMNT’s 2-1 defeat and subsequent elimination from the 2018 World Cup in Russia, we thought […]
#Pondcast: Fabian Delph Lives
Covering this week’s Premier League action, D.J. & Jeremy weren’t so much shocked that Manchester City rolled to a 5-0 victory over Crystal Palace, so much as they were shocked at who scored one of those goals. Chelsea’s dominating performance on the road also gets some airtime, but not a whole lot more than Diego […]
#Pondcast: Mané’s Sergio Dipp Moment
Though we didn’t take a high boot to our own faces, we were out of commission earlier this week — so a late podcast covering all of the weekend’s Premier League action is the silver lining you should be looking for. In it, we spend time discussing how Mané was definitely deserving of the red he saw against […]
#Pondcast: Your Deadline Day Sky Sports Alternative
This past weekend’s round of Premier League action produced happiness in the Northwest of England and disappointment in North London, and the guys focused in on both on this week’s #Pondcast. Time was also devoted to the fast approaching European transfer window deadline, and we put on our best Sky Sports correspondent hats and tried […]
#Pondcast: Derby Delight/Distress
The earliest WSOTP Derby in recorded history took place last weekend. One half of the #Pondcast team looked forward to it eagerly, while the other looked on in trepidation. The result left them both feeling rather different. We of course covered more than just Spurs-Chelsea though, as the guys dashed through the rest of the weekend Premier […]
#Pondcast: What goes up must come down
The 2017/18 Premier League got off to a cracking start this past weekend — well, at least for some clubs. On this week’s show, we feast on the action that unfolded across the pond by looking at who got off to a good start, as well as who didn’t. The guys then moved on to […]
Summer #Pondcast Special Uno
After a few weeks to collect our heads — and spend time with our families, work our jobs — D.J. and Jeremy returned to the booth for the first summer special of 2017! So what was on the agenda after such a long break off? The guys take a look at the upcoming Gold Cup […]
#Pondcast: We’re Both Insufferable
We’re going to start this off by apologizing. If you’re not a fan of either Chelsea or Spurs, there’s a chance you might find both your #Pondcast hosts to be a bit nauseating this week. Jeremy, of course, had Chelsea’s title achievement to boast about and we can forgive him that. But D.J. still found a way to […]
