After two straight weeks with heavily delayed #Pondcast deliveries, we get things back on track this week with the usual Tuesday afternoon posting. So no broken hearts should come on that front — in the footballing world though, the same promises couldn’t be made this past weekend. For example, D.J. grapples with the reality of a “bottled” […]

#Pondcast: St. Totteringham’s Day is CANCELLED
Two weeks in a row with a Thursday episode of the #Pondcast? We promise we’re not trying to make this a habit, but between figuring out how to shoehorn the show into newly adjusted work schedule and some serious technical problems… well, it’s proven difficult. That said, you’ll be delighted to learn that this week’s effort clocks in […]
#Pondcast: Alan Pardew for Mayor
We’ve got a title race on our hands, or at least that’s what Chelsea fan Jeremy spent a portion of this latest #Pondcast trying to convince Spurs fan D.J. The guys not only debated the merits of both those side’s chances, but also took some time to dissect the top four race unfolding below them before dancing through the Champions […]
#Pondcast: The Show Recorded Entirely in DJ’s Pants
A wild and chaotic weekend in the Premier League gave the guys ample room to debate on this week’s WSOTP Pondcast a number of intriguing questions. Was Palace’s upset of Chelsea enough to open the door for Spurs? Can City or Liverpool actually make up the points gap and make it more than a two horse […]
#Pondcast: How Bruce Gave Us Our Groove Back
As we’ve harped on before, coming up with content on international weeks is hard. Okay, on week’s like this one, it isn’t that hard. What with the US Men’s National Team demolishing Honduras after having their German shackles removed and Christian Pulisic being ordained the official second coming. But with minimal MLS to report on, and no Premier […]
#Pondcast: Never pet a burning dog
It’s officially spring here in Ohio. That means the weather is currently wildly fluctuating between spells of winter and early summer, most of the country has turned its attention to basketball madness, and those of us in the world of soccer are left to be drowned by a tsunami of soccer. The English Premiership has reached the point […]
#Pondcast: Let’s Cram All the Leagues In
It’s that time of the year where there’s absolutely no shortage of soccer to digest, and this week’s #Pondcast is a reflection of that. No less than five competitions got some serious time in this week’s show, with the FA Cup, Premier League, UEFA Champions League, MLS and LigaMX all getting considerable time on air. The last of those warranted […]
#Pondcast: Let’s Get Domestic
The regular season domestic calendar opened up this past weekend here in the United States. And while the new MLS season always inspires excitement, this year, it seemed like a bigger deal than normal. That might have had something to do with two expansion teams kicking their first ball in the American/Canadian top flight, […]
#Pondcast: We Didn’t Win Best Picture Either
With a Sunday night recording nixing our ability to talk about a Ranieri-less Leicester resurrect themselves in glorious fashion against a deflated Liverpool side, we’re presuming that’s how the Academy botched our chances of ending the evening with silverware just like La La Land. Presuming a podcast could even be nominated for a film award. Instead, we talked […]
#Pondcast: The one with Taylor Twellman
Wondering what’s in store for this latest episode of the #Pondcast? MLS Cup Final talk? Yeah, we’ve got that. A look back at the weekend Premier League action, including hot takes on City-Chelsea and North London? Double check. What about a further update and recapping of the Cosmos and NASL drama? Like we were going to […]
