Pure class

As an American getting into the beautiful game (soccer), these guys bring me feelings of all the past great sport shows from ESPN and the early days of podcasting a half decade ago. Keep the energy, positivity, looseness, and constant ‘banter’.

Thanks for the pod. Who are you guys again?
