Racing Louisville was unable to clinch a playoff spot in the last two weeks, so with one game left, it all comes down to their match against Bay FC.

After 3 straight losses it looked like Racing was down and out, but after massive back-to-back wins their playoff push is in full swing. On this week’s episode, Tom, Bekki, and Kaitlyn discuss how good it feels to beat Angel City and finally defeat North Carolina on their home turf. We also get into the team’s tenacity, the flexibility we’ve seen in their style of play, and our hopes for the final 3 matches of the season.

It’s now been three losses in a row for Racing. A mix of bad luck, bad officiating, and player injuries has dropped Big Purp out of playoff contention and at risk of dropping further. Tom, Bekki, and Kaitlyn are worried after this rough patch, but still have hope the team can turn it around. Listen now to find out why.

What’s in Racing’s control? What’s not? Tom and Kaitlyn answer these questions while recapping the team’s recent disappointing results against Houston and Portland. We also chat about what we need to see from the players going forward as well as how the team should adapt to the reffing in the league. We had a lot to get off our chests this week, so buckle up!

Racing came, they saw, and, in the words of Ella Hase, said “…we’re not losing this f—cking game” against the San Diego Wave. Yes, Racing slayed Snapdragon Stadium for the first time, and Tom, Bekki, and Kaitlyn have a lot to say about it.

This week Tom, Bekki, and Kaitlyn discuss Jordyn Bloomer’s legendary double penalty save performance against Orlando, FINALLY getting to watch a match in person together, and adjusting expectations for the remainder of the season (we want a home playoff match!). Plus we’ve got Bloomer-themed Mint Mix additions that you won’t want to miss!

Racing is the Women’s Cup Champion of 2025! With Tom Benson out on an excused absence, Kaitlyn and Bekki talk about Racing’s performance during the break and what they need to do to keep momentum against the Kansas City Current and other tough teams. An injury to Lo Milliet doesn’t help things, so does Racing have what it takes to stay in the playoff race?

The BTRD crew took the last month off for summer break but we’re back this week with a discussion of Racing’s triumphant defeat of Orlando at home, the re-signing of key midfielder Taylor Flint through 2028, and our thoughts on the season so far (as well as the exhibition match against Lexington SC). Come for the soccer analysis, stay for the inspirational quotes and defense of yacht rock–this episode has it all!

A 3-2 win against Utah and a 4-2 loss against Kansas City mark Racing’s most recent results and, for now, Big Purp is hanging out in a playoff spot. Can they hold onto it with no less than four other teams capable of making the jump over them in the next week? Bekki, Tom, and Kaitlyn also break down all the pending free agents for Racing and collectively ask the front office to DO SOMETHING when it comes to announcing player extensions.

In this episode, we talk all about that great win against Angel City and, yes, of course, we also discuss the ‘Ficher Incident’. Several pets also make dramatic and unplanned appearances. Racing currently sits in 8th place with only one match left before the international break and then a VERY hard string of games. Can they keep it up?
