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.

Trends we don’t like to see [Spirits v. Thorns Match Review]
Annie, Ella & André review an unfortunate 2-1 Spirits loss to Portland Thorns, courtesy of a couple frustrating trends they haven't been able to shake.
We identify those trends and why they might be happening, and how the team may approach solving them. It was a frustrating game but there were some highlights, including Lena Silano's first regular season goal and Tara McKeown's progression at center back.

Customer Reviews
Love it 😍
Love the spirit and the podcast it’s wonderful
Love the podcast
I love Washington spirit and love listing and hearing from your point of view on the game I’m excited to hear from you the rest of the season and I don’t really like Candy corn but I will eat it
So fun so spirits wahoo
Love this podcast! I look forward to hearing the hosts thoughts before and after each game, and especially love the player interviews they’ve been doing.
Some loving feedback: please get Jo a new mic lol. Annie and Andre both sound great, but Jo is quite echo-y, and it takes away from her A+ thoughts. Also, I’d love if we took tired out of the intro vocab!!! We’re all so excited to hear from all of you, so match our energy!!!
