    U.S. exits the Women's World Cup

    Bekki Morgan and Arianna Cascone react immediately after the U.S. women's national team's dramatic exit from the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. Sweden moves on to the quarterfinals thanks to literally the slimmest of margins. What happened to the U.S. attack in the last three matches? What questions remain for the United States after this loss? And the U.S. may be out, but this very unpredictable tournament has been incredible to watch so far, and will only get even better.

    U.S. advances, barely

    U.S. advances, barely

    Bekki Morgan and Jeff Kassouf discuss the U.S. women's national team's 0-0 draw with Portugal to end the group stage. While the U.S. has advanced to the Round of 16, it was not without significant struggle. Jeff, who watched the game live in Auckland, says it's one of the worst performances he's seen from the U.S. in a meaningful game. Bekki says it's difficult to see what the game plan is for the U.S. in each match. Portugal played well, and deserved a more favorable result. The same issues for the U.S. have continued since their game vs. the Netherlands. What is going wrong for the team in this tournament?

    Arianna Cascone and Theo Lloyd-Hughes react immediately following the U.S. women's national team's 1-1 draw with the Netherlands in one of the best games of the Women's World Cup so far. How was the U.S. able to turn things around after a rocky first half? Why didn't we see more subs for the U.S. in the second half?

Bi you are so sweet to be there

The first time you have a chance at the top is the second one you get a free pass and you can go on your way back and then go to your car to pick it

Good show except…

Good show but Taylor’s non stop use of the word “Right” is nuts! She uses as a comma, a period, a question mark and in the middle of every other sentence whether it make sense or not. Please listen to your last episode, before 8/14, and hear it for yourselves!

Good and interesting

I like listening BC they can intelligently discuss relevant topics. More journalism than hype.
