Butchertown Rundown: A Racing Louisville Podcast

Well, that could have gone better. Tom and Bekki discuss another catastrophic loss for Racing and what it means for the players, the coach, and the front office. We also create playlists to adequately express our feels and invent an entirely new mythological creature.

Well, that wasn't fun. We had to reconvene a week early to discuss the very unpleasant 4-0 loss against the Red Stars. Sure, that match stung, but what - if anything - does it say about Racing's season and their trajectory? Tom and Bekki try and work it out in this lengthy episode with special guest Michael Shaw (Fleur de Lis FC).

Between the Women's Cup and the Houston Dash draw, there's been SO MUCH SOCCER. Seven matches in Lynn Family Stadium plus Racing's trip down to Texas! So Tom and Bekki have a lot to talk about. What went right, what went wrong, why is Tom giving Sav DeMelo yet another nickname? Find out in this episode!

Fill the Fam for Racing Louisville is coming up on Saturday and everyone's looking to beat last year's attendance record! To celebrate this momentous occasion, we have Racing's comms manager Jeff Greer on to tease some of the specials taking place on Saturday and super special guest Jaelin Howell who is here to talk everything from locker room chemistry bar brawls. Yes, we said bar brawls.

We've made it to the other side of Hell Week and Tom and Bekki have a lot to say about Racing's most recent results, formation changes, and the coaching conundrum. People are starting to call for Coach Kim to get sacked now that the team is on a 10-game winless streak, but what do Tom and Bekki think? There's also a surprising amount of religious and plant-based analogies just to keep things extra interesting. Believe me, we didn't expect it either.

Summer vacation is over! After a week off, Racing players are back in town preparing for Hell Week (Trademark Tom Benson) when Louisville faces off against 3 top teams in just 7 days here in Lynn Family Stadium. This three game bonanza kicks off the second half of the 2022 season, so Bekki and Tom also discuss what in the first half of the season made us smile, what made us cry, and what left us scratching our heads in confusion. Brandon Condra of the Lavender Legion also joins us to talk about the gameday experience with Racing's foremost supporter's group.

In the second half of this week's episode, Tom and Bekki discuss the Daytona Soccer Fest draw against Orlando and the loss to Gotham. In spite of everything, there's a lot to be positive about - especially after our recent chat with Katie Lund.

It's part two of our mega episode! Last time we discussed Ebony Salmon's trade and our concerns about Racing. Now we're discussing your questions on topics like The Women's Cup, if Jess should be paired with another striker, and if the overturn of Roe v Wade will hurt Racing's recruitment and retention of players. Hefty stuff, but we still have some fun.

The Ebony Salmon trade has pushed all other topics aside and Tom and Bekki dive deep into our thoughts, our concerns, and our feelings while trying to find the nuance in the situation. This episode went so long that this is only the first part. We finish up the episode by answering listener questions in part 2 which will be released on Thursday or Friday.
