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: Cuban pitch crisis
This past Friday, the US Men’s National Team played a historic match on Cuban soil. It was the first friendly we’ve played in Cuba since the Cold War, and WSOTP had a “spy” in the stands. WVXU/WMUB’s Tana Weingartner (@TanaWeingartner) makes her latest appearance on this week’s #Pondcast to provide her first hand account of her […]
WSOTP pod: this looks like a title race
This weekend’s Premier League action saw the top four sides. Two of those teams are top four regulars, two of whom (mostly) are not. And despite two statement wins — one from each group — the two unusual suspects still sitting atop the table with just six points separating the foursome. You know what that’s called? A […]
i want: #pondcast holiday gift guide
Normally, the “I Want” series I run on the blog catalogs a list of the items throughout the course of the year I personally want. And judging at the cost, diversity and frequency of the items I identified in 2015, it’s clear I’m a very greedy person. But with us up to our necks in the annual […]
ten words or less #109
While things on the writing front haven’t completely picked back up yet — I’ve had a few original pieces pop out of my brain recently — things on the design front have really picked up a bit. In addition to the recently announced Saints Matchday Poster project eating up gobs of my time, there’s also been […]

WSOTP pod: episode 23
The latest episode of the Wrong Side of the Pond Podcast — slightly delayed as D.J. continues to man the editing while Jeremy’s computer is out of commission — is finally available for our listening enjoyment. It worked out well, as it allowed the guys ample time to reflect upon an interesting weekend full of Eto’o goals, […]
pic of the week 12/16 – 12/22
There were a number of pictures worthy of being deemed this week’s big selection — I had a particularly hard time denying this ridiculous picture of NAC Breda players celebrating a rare win in the pitch-side fan jacuzzi. But only one was truly deserving, and it’s due mainly to the circumstances that surround and explain […]
world cup XX by the numbers
As the final whistle blew in Montivideo last week, a 0-0 scoreline between Uruguay and Jordan was enough to see the South American champions ease past the visitors to become the thirty-second and final nation to qualify for World Cup 2014 in Brazil. The 20th edition of the tournament, Brazil 2014 will be the first […]
WSOTP pod: episode 7
WSOTP Pod: Season 1 Episode 7 The number seven is normally a lucky number, but for whatever reason, Episode 7 of the WSOTP Podcast was anything but lucky. Instead, I was on fire with blurting out what were actually non-factual facts. I guess I’m not entirely out of luck though, as my partner in crime […]
