The Soccer Watcher

Sitting On the Couch, Playing Soccer, As One Does

This episode is all about soccer gaming. No, not soccer the game or the game of soccer, but soccer gaming as in soccer video gaming, soccer board gaming, or pretty much any form of soccer that can be enjoyed without necessarily going outside or much physical exertion. We talk FIFA franchise, 2K Sports, Commodore 64 International Soccer, Pele on Atari 2600, the rather obscure (in America anyway) Sensible Soccer, and a whole lot more. 

Seasons in the MLS Abyss

Discussing the massive changes coming to MLS schedules in 2027 - the good, the bad, the ugly, and the unpredictable.

Gambling: For Investment Purposes Only

In light of the NBA gambling controversies in the news, we discuss gambling in all of its various forms, but mostly the rise of the sportsbook, online playing, and even fantasy sports. 

F**k Technology

The good, bad, and sometimes ugly of soccer-watching technology is discussed. From the (way too many) different ways to watch to on-field/in-game tech to the at-home watching experience(s). Is any of this really enhancing the soccer watcher experience? Listen and find out.

Made to Be Broken

In our debut episode, we discuss rules – good rules, bad rules, rules that no one has ever even heard of, and how sometimes those rules are made to be broken. In particular, we discuss the (in)famous Caribbean Cup match of 1994, the match between Barbados and Granada that featured one of the most bizarre conclusions ever – all of it because of its rules.
