#Pondcast: Back to bombing the wings
Ten straight weeks of soccer-less podcasting took its toll, so D.J. and Jeremy took last week off for a much-needed breather. But they’re back this week, and just in time for the return of MLS — or at least the announcement that heralded the return of it. Of course, that news comes in the middle […]
#Pondcast: The big guys in the back
Soccer is back with the return of the Bundesliga, as the German giants became the first major league to resume play during the pandemic. We reflected on the weekend itself, and the conversation that surrounded it on Soccer Twitter. Picking up where we left off last time around, D.J. and Jeremy continue their quarantine specials […]
#Pondcast: The guys with the hands
In the rarest of rarities for the show, this week’s episode saw D.J. and Jeremy host a guest in back-to-back episodes when they welcomed former stand-in host Adam Maloney (@maloneyam34 on Twitter) back to the #Pondcast to help tackle our all-time favorite goalkeeper lists. A netminder himself, Adam offered his own favorites on top of […]
#Pondcast: But what about the kids?
With stay-at-home orders still in place after nearly two months, you might think the guys would be growing tired of jumping on yet another Zoom meeting to chat about all the soccer that’s not happening.

#Pondcast: This is Jeremy
After putting D.J. in the spotlight during last week’s sixth pandemic special, this week’s show sees the roles reversed with Jeremy now on the receiving end of a #Pondcast grilling. Together, he and D.J. walkthrough Jeremy’s path from a soccer-barren past to a present choc-full of the beautiful game. Of course, we also touched on […]
#Pondcast: Why is D.J. the way he is?
With the covid having deprived us all of over a month’s worth of soccer and the related headlines dwindling as a result, you might think we’re nearing the metaphorical bottom of the barrel when it comes to content to cover on the Pondcast. But if you did think that: you’re wrong. That’s right, we turned the […]
#Pondcast: Here’s where we would watch matches if soccer was allowed again
On this week’s pandemic special, we imagine a world where soccer was actually being played again. And if we had limitless funds, we each list 10 where we would want to try to catch a match before the next infectious disease breaks out on a global scale. In addition to the bucket lists, we hit […]
#Pondcast: The guilty pleasures of lockdown
It’s week three of Corona-flavored quarantine here in Ohio and it’s clear that social distancing has started to take its toll. We humored the craziest of conspiracy theories, like how the Premier League might actually finish their season. Jeremy listed the best five soccer documentaries to watch on a single streaming platform. And we even […]
