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.

#Pondcast: These Are Alternative Facts
Cold winters be damned, the world of soccer remains hot, hot, hot… at least that’s the way we saw it. A tumultuous weekend in the top seven of the Premier League for all but one team unfolded in England, giving D.J. and Jeremy plenty to discuss.

#Pondcast: 150 Snuck Up on Us
While our 100th episode was one we celebrated with much fanfare — a special guest and things like advance planning — the 150th episode didn’t quite get the same treatment.

Two and a half years ago — despite nothing more to go than an occasional Twitter interaction and a fleeting encounter watching Wigan play at a podunk little high school — two guys that barely knew each other started a soccer podcast. Now into their third season and 100 episodes later, they’re somehow still making it happen. To celebrate our 100th […]
WSOTP pod: a-klopp-alypse
Dulled from a particularly grating international break, the guys dip their toes back into the healing waters of the Premier League on this week’s podcast. Thoughts on the top three rolling on the weekend, Chelsea’s return to winning ways and some guy named Jürgen Klopp were all major points of discussion. Also in this week’s […]
WSOTP pod: the drama club
Welcome to the point in the yearly soccer calendar when there is literally too much going on to pay attention. The domestic regular seasons are winding to a close and the playoffs soon to begin. Across the pond, the European leagues are now old enough to have developed narratives and full-fledged drama. Just in case you […]
WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 33
Another full plate of football talk awaits you on the latest episode of the #Pondcast. The bottom and top of the Premier League were awash with interesting results, punctuated by a series of amazing goals.

WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 15
Club football’s return this past weekend — both domestically and across the pond — meant the boys had plenty of football discussion on their plate for Episode 15 of the podcast.
