Despite picking up a nasty bug while in Chicago over the weekend, we managed to hold Jeremy to his weekly podcasting duties and pump out this week’s show — from an isolation chamber in his basement anyway. But even with great distance between them, the guys managed to rundown another big weekend of soccer on […]

#Pondcast: Drogba Always Pictured His Last Match in Kentucky
One of the legends of the game’s recent era will call time on his days as a professional footballer this weekend in Louisville, Kentucky. Just the way he pictured it as a child in the Ivory Coast, Didier Drogba will look to cap off his glittering career by leading his Phoenix Rising FC to an […]
#Pondcast: Thanks for the Memories
Last weekend’s domestic action takes center stage on this week’s episode of the #Pondcast, as D.J. and Jeremy dissect MLS Decision Day results and look ahead at the resulting MLS Cup Playoff matchups coming at us starting this week. We also devoted a sizable portion of the show to looking back at FC Cincinnati’s now-completed […]
#Pondcast: We’re Old Enough to Still Call Things ‘Lit’
It’s a rare occasion when a marquee Premier League matchup lives up to its billing, but that wasn’t the case this past weekend when Chelsea vs Manchester United produced enough sparks to be called “lit”. As you might expect, D.J. and Jeremy discussed the goals and touchline drama before taking a look around the rest […]
#Pondcast: We’re Changing the World
Here at Wrong Side of the Pond, we’ve been known to take the international breaks off. That’s almost always the case during breaks without any meaningful matches for the US Men’s National Team, which was very much the case this time around, too. But this was no normal international break. First, the USMNT’s failure to qualify […]
#Pondcast: We’ll Have to Call Him Jessi or Something
Though barrenness of yet another international break is upon us, the latest #Pondcast episode has also arrived to take you back in time to relive last week’s club football action instead. On this week’s show, we contemplate how Mourinho managed to survive a dagger-wielding Rafa Benítez, why Liverpool-City failed to live up to the impossible expectations we […]
#Pondcast: A Bad Week for José
Two defeats in a week would be bad enough for Manchester United’s José Mourinho, but falling to a Championship side managed by one of your former proteges and following that up with a loss to the most chaotic club in your own division certainly makes the two losses sting a little bit more. And since […]
#Pondcast: Into the Wilds of Europe
The UEFA Champions League group stage kicked off last week, wildly some might even say. Liverpool triumphed in a goalfest with Jordan Saint-Germain, Spurs and the Cityzens lodged disappointing losses to former giants, and Manchester United found victory on the pitch while still taking L’s in their locker room. Then in American matters, there are […]
#Pondcast: A Title to Lose
If you’ve ever wondered what it would be like to listen to a #Pondcast where hosts D.J. and Jeremy did almost zero prep work and recorded after an afternoon of day drinking at a hot soccer match, this is the episode you’ve been waiting for! And on this week’s poorly prepared podcast, the guys haphazardly hand Liverpool […]
#Pondcast: It’s Premature to Call the Hornets Foxes
Fill your international break with #Pondcast joy as D.J. and Jeremy tackle Watford’s perfect start to the Premier League season before contrasting it with West Ham’s own chaotic commencement to the campaign. The guys then tackled this year’s Champions League draw and shared some listener contributions on the subject before taking a trip Stateside to assess the […]
