RODMAN IS RIGHT [Spirits v. Wave Match Review + Gotham Preview]
Annie, Ella & André review the Spirits first draw of the season, and why it felt like so much more.
We talk about record attendance, Naomi Girma being incredible, Croix Bethune finding a way to be incredibler, Trinity Rodman having to do the referee's job for her, right back Hal Hershfelt, and a bunch of other Spirits stuff.
We also do a mini-preview of this weekend's match with Gotham, who are a much different team than when we last saw (and beat) them.

Ashley Hatch played where + The Summer of Soccer [Spirits v. Utah Match Review]
Annie, Ella & André are back to review the Spirits 1-0 win over Utah Royals. We talk about the interesting lineup choice and Ashley Hatch playing in (yet another) unfamiliar position. We're also really happy for Weezy F. Golazo, but also think more goals are good and a thing we would like to see.
Then we get into news about the potential timeline for Jonatan Giráldez and Leicy Santos's arrivals, and discuss the recently announces August matches involving Chelsea FCW and Arsenal WFC @ Audi! Oh yeah and we drop a mini preview for the upcoming match against the San Diego Wave.

Bangers, Breakers, and The Orange Bow (w/ Brittany Ratcliffe)
It's an international break so Annie & André had the pleasure of sitting down with one of the Spirit's newest players, Brittany Ratcliffe!
They talk about her path from dance to softball to soccer, her early days with the Boston Breakers, free agency, choosing the Spirit, scoring bangers, her trademark orange bow (including an excellent detail that shocked us mid-pod), and more!

Squidward & John Madden [Spirits v. Reign review, United Spirits II, new signing(s), & more]
Annie, Ella & André get into lots of Washington Spirit stuff. We recap the 3-2 win over Seattle Reign, and note an interesting second half trend. Then we talk about the unexpected return of United Spirits, and why Hal Hershfelt and Kate Wiesner were called up.
After, we discuss the signing of Notre Dame defender Waniya Hudson, and the rumor of former Manchester City player Esme Morgan heading to DC. Also, André forgets his second point and it haunts him for the remainder of the podcast (he remembered three minutes after we finished recording).

Meet the Spirit's ESPN 630 broadcast team! (w/ Gaby Vincent, Michael Minnich, and Bram Weinstein)
We had the pleasure of sitting down with the new ESPN 630 team on the even of their first broadcast! Gaby Vincent, Bram Weinstein and Michael Minnich talk about why this is such an important step for the Washington Spirit (and women's sports overall), and what they'll bring to the broadcast.
We also get to know each member of the team, their backgrounds, commentating pet peeves, the potential of Taylor Swift references seeping into broadcasts, and of course their thoughts on candy corn.
