International break be damned, there was still plenty that transpired over the last week to warrant a new episode of the #Pondcast this week. As such, Jeremy and D.J. tackled a smaller set of subjects this week with a heavy focus on last Friday’s USA-Mexico match in nearby Columbus. How was the post-election atmosphere? What was up […]

#Pondcast: A Red and Blue Battleground State
The North London Derby may have been given top billing in England last weekend, but two standout performances from Chelsea and Liverpool might have stolen the spotlight — and the guys were inclined to delve into all three matches on this week’s show. Moving stateside, there was plenty of MLS Playoff discussion in the cards too. Not […]
#Pondcast: Another Big Match Letdown
Delayed a day because I fell asleep while the file was uploadin — hashtag dadlife — your latest episode of the #Pondcast is now finally ready for audio consumption. This week, we (mostly) skip over the dud that was Liverpool-United before digging into City-Everton, Bob Bradley’s first game in charge at Swansea and West Brom-Spurs before rounding […]
#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 […]
#Pondcast: have a fourburger
Episode six of season four was a fun one to record, with conversation from nearly all four corners of the globe working their way into this week’s program. There was the standard Premier League dalliances, including Chelsea’s let down, Spurs’ rise and a lovely little Manchester Derby. Over on mainland Europe, there was our yearly […]
#Pondcast: why yes those are steel drums
International breaks are tough, what with the dearth of matches in the Premier League giving way to a smattering of appealing World Cup qualifiers and litany of uninteresting friendlies substituted in their place. But just because the Premier League was on break, that doesn’t mean the #Pondcast team was, too. Jeremy and D.J. used the pause in (European) […]
#Pondcast: you’ll never believe the three at the top
Despite nearly 30 hours of driving over the course of three days, D.J. made it back in time from another soccer excursion to record this week’s episode of the WSOTP Podcast — likely due to unhealthy amount of Red Bull. So what did the guys cover once he finally pulled back into Ohio? The guys […]
#Pondcast: we’re back whether you wanted us or not
Though it’s literally been just a few weeks since the last episode of Season 3, with the Premier League 2016/17 campaign kicking of in just a few days’ time, it’s time for the return of the #Pondcast for Season 4! As has been customary over the last three years, D.J. & Jeremy delve into their annual Premier League season […]
#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 […]
