With weather now turning occasionally, slightly warmer, it’s about that time of year for the #Pondcast team to look ahead to the rapidly approaching Major League Soccer season. As such, Season 3 Episode 30 will serve as this year’s official ‘MLS Preview’ show. But we had to really squeeze it in there, since the rest of the […]

WSOTP pod: pop goes the microphone
You’ll hear about it when you listen in, but I may as well give you a heads up here, too: we unknowingly experienced some technical difficulties on this week’s #Pondcast that will have an impact on the audio quality. About 5 minutes into recording, the guys heard a loud pop but couldn’t ascertain what it was and recorded […]
pic of the week 3/2-3/8
So yeah, this was supposed to go up at the beginning of the week, but things got busy and I forgot to publish. But the image selected for the latest “Pic of the Week” is just too good to not be shared, even if temporarily forgotten. What follows is what you would have seen if […]
in review: MLS jersey week 2015
Maybe it’s just me, but it sure feels like the Major League Soccer off season is getting shorter and shorter every year. It seems as if it was just days ago that we were watching the Galaxy hoist their fifth MLS Cup trophy. Perhaps that’s due to the near constant stream of news now pouring from the […]
and the award goes to…
Major League Soccer announced their end of season award nominees this week. A good chunk of them come with their own title sponsors, as is the case with the Xbox Individual Fair Play Award, the MLSWORKS Humanitarian of the Year, the AT&T Rookie of the Year, the Allstate Goalkeeper of the Year and of course the big one, the Volkswagen Most Valuable […]
a peach of a goal… or ten
Not that this is a groundbreaking thought or anything, but most individual awards in the world of sport are one hundred percent subjective. Soccer is particularly guilty of this when awarding prizes like league MVP’s, goalkeepr of the year awards, or the yearly handing out of the FIFA Balon d’Or. It’s not always the case, but often […]
WSOTP pod: season 2 episode 12
I feel like it’s getting a bit redundant when I say there was a lot for us to talk about this week on the Pondcast — a new nickname for the podcast that we’re adopting thanks to clever /r/soccer user TommyShambles — but once again it was true. Even though the Premier League featured a bunch of […]
in review: MLS jersey week 2014
It’s been an odd off season in MLS. Unlike years past where there was a definite lull in the amount of stories and headlines coming out of the league during the winter months leading up to the season, there was a near constant flow of announcements this time around. From Toronto FC’s seismic signings to […]
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, […]
WSOTP pod: episode 21
As we mentioned at the end of last week’s podcast, the setting for our recording would be changing for Episode 21. With our studio no longer available, we picked up shop and moved to far more agreeable surroundings this week: D.J.’s living room. There the guys were able to enjoy not only comfortable seats and […]
