Customer Reviews
Best Pod for NWSL Fans
Far and away my favorite pod for NWSL discussion. Lively, smart host and a rotation of excellent guests. Great balance of football talk and league news.
Host choice
Glad that Claire is the permanent host. She brings a balanced and nuanced approach to soccer discussion and analysis. Appreciate that she is a unabashed Chicago fan. Good work.
It’s decent, not groundbreaking
The discussions are decent enough. The analysis isn’t too technically deep, which can be good if you just want to get your soccer update fix which is why I listen but it’s not anything you couldn’t figure out on your own. However, because the hosts are journalists/media in women's soccer, they do have some info you might have known otherwise. Pardeep, one of the regular co-hosts, is really hard to listen to. Her input lacks any substance, she takes too long to speak just to say barely anything, and doesn’t add anything to the episode. She either needs to prepare herself for the episode better or practice public speaking or edit her parts down.
