If you’re reading this intro or listening to this podcast, congratulations… you survived 2016. Many of you likely made it through the chaotic final few weeks of the year by bunkering down and gorging on a seemingly endless run of Premier League fixtures. And a good thing too, seeing how the Premier League normally delivers […]

#Pondcast: 2016’s Fireside Chats with WSOTP
Ahhhh… the Holidays. It’s the time of the year when families gather together, presents are exchanged, stress levels go through the roof, English soccer overindulges, and D.J. and Jeremy take a break from the #Pondcast. And normally, we make you suffer through the end of the calendar year without a new episode to help distract […]
#Pondcast summer special 3: cincinnati soccer media roundtable
We’ve been talking about recording a podcast live at our favorite neighborhood soccer pub — friends and soccer evangelists, Rhinehaus, in Cincinnati’s Over-the-Rhine district — for just about as long as the #Pondcast has been around. And just as the stars finally aligned to make it a reality with a really cool cast of guests too… we […]
#Pondcast summer special 2: from santiago to east rutheford
One major international tournament is now over. Another major international tournament is now halfway through. So this seems as good of time as any to bust out our second #Pondcast Summer Special of 2016! So what’s in store? D.J. and Jeremy welcome on Carlos Mojica (@CD_Mojica) of Centro Deportivo and Enganche podcast fame on […]
#Pondcast summer special: the donald trump of american soccer
Well, it took just a month for us to get the itch to get back together and record yet another #Pondcast. Which is good, because we literally had people asking about when the next one would drop. Never mind that there are two major international tournaments going on with the Euros and Copa Centenario, or […]
WSOTP pod: this is not the greatest sports story ever
A new #Pondcast on a Tuesday isn’t something we’ve been able to pull off recently, but we’re back on schedule again — this week at least. On this latest episode, Adam Maloney (@maloneyam34) rejoins us-as a guest host again to reflect on Leicester City’s now official Premier League title and Spurs’ spursing it away to them by surrendering a two […]
WSOTP pod: soccer’s johnny appleseed
Cup competitions were at the fore this past week — FA Cup, UEFA Champions League, Copa América Centenario and even the FC Cincinnati’s preseason participation in the IMG Suncoast Pro Classic — and as such, they take up a sizable chunk of this week’s #Pondcast. But even with all of those tournaments, there was also ample […]
WSOTP pod: fifteen goals for D.J.
While last week’s abridged version of the podcast gives way to this week’s 71 minute show, we’ve been forced to stuff in everything from MLS Decision Day, Champions League recaps, Chelsea’s continued meltdown to a lackluster Manchester Derby. Plus, the guys provide their weekly Winners & Wankers, a League 2 Watch and even name some winners in our […]
ten words or less #111
So 2015 has been the summer of soccer to end all summers of soccer. There has been at least one — and often times two or three — “major” international tournament(s) going on each week, ranging from the less-prominent youth World Cups and Gold Cups to the more prestigious Women’s World Cup and Copa America. Those […]
WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 32
You might be inclined to think that with this being the middle of an international break, we wouldn’t have much to talk about on this week’s “Pondcast”. Well, if you were so inclined, you were wrong. There were of course international matches to talk about, including a pair of European USMNT friendlies and European Championship qualifiers. Plus […]
