Episode 39 - Debbie Downer Marshmallow Guy

After two wins, do we know how good the Thorns are? What will the expansion of NWSL into California look like, how will the internationals adjust to rejoining the team post Olympics and will Moultrie step onto the pitch June 20th? We tackle these questions and address some listener comments.

We talk about the loses to OL Reign and Orlando, the team without their national players during the Olympics, and the implications of the judge's order in the Olivia Moultrie case.

Episode 37: Small Mistakes - Big Costs

Episode 32: It's Getting Drafty in Here

It's the last episode of the season and we ran long because there was so much to talk about. For instance (SPOILER ALERT) we didn't have such a great run at the end of the season. What went wrong? What changes need to be made in the off season? Who stays and who goes? All of this and more, coming up!

Episode 31: Having Procured One Bear

The end of the season kind of feels like we all took an elbow to the nose. Join us as we talk about Vlatkoball, the potential end of Christine Sinclair's career (T_T) and Nadine Angerer: Ice dancer? Plus Richard with the attendance report and your questions.
