Electric Gold: A Nashville SC Supporter Podcast

Okay, we're not quite sure what happened here, but somehow the space-time continuum got all twisted and an episode from ten years in the future has arrived.  In this episode, the boys recap the recent win over Bismarck before reminiscing on ten years of fame and glory hosting the Electric Gold podcast, as well as all the incredible success that Nashville SC has enjoyed over that time.  They look back at the dark times of 2024 and step through all the twists and turns that lifted the team to be the greatest MLS dynasty ever known.  They also show some love for Mayor Taylor Washington, Walker Zimmerman Jr., and Evan's ex, Taylor Swift.  Finally, they preview upcoming games against cellar-dwellars Cincinnati and Canadian upstarts Winnipeg City.  And yes, they're still drinking beer.

In this very special episode, the boys turn the entire podcast into a musical!  It's high-concept stuff, but it works.  There's a little bit of something to please everyone here, from country to hip-hop to metal to trip-hop to straight rock and on and on.  And somehow, all the songs are about Nashville soccer.  Listen to the boys croon about the recent loss to Austin, the exciting new player we have in Jonathan Perez, and lament about Patrick Yazbek's indiscretions and the small turnout for NSC tailgates.  Then, things get really groovy with some hot chicken takes about Reese Witherspoon and Hany Mukhtar's penalty kicks.  Finally, the boys sing about the upcoming game in Orlando and make some woeful predictions along the way.  You don't want to miss this! 

The boys are back!!!  After a month-long hiatus, Electric Gold has returned with fresh new Nashville SC analysis and Nashville hot chicken takes to melt your face off.  In this episode, the boys do a deep dive on the team's expiring contracts, and evaluate which players should be kept on the team, and which ones should be driven to the airport (Alex Muyl - we love you, really).  Then, they talk about why now is the golden age of NSC fandom, and get overly optimistic about the next several weeks without any evidence to support it.  Then, they share their favorite highlights and lowlights from the Olympics before wrapping up with some predictions and hopes and dreams for the rest of the soccer season.  And they drink beer. 

In this episode, the boys can hardly contain their excitement over the recent performances of Nashville SC.  Okay, that's a lie, but they soldier on anyway, recapping the recent loss to DC United and then turning their attention to the Wimbledon finals, the Euros finals and the impact of the Copa America tournament.  They give props to Joe Willis for a game well-played and also highlight all the small things that Teal Bunbury does well.  They also shake their heads at NSC's continued suckage with set pieces (again), and they do their best Alexi Lalas impersonations.  The hot takes are weird, but then they discuss the music that helps them overcome their recent sorrows - stuff like the War on Drugs, Faith No More and XTC. It's inspirational and definitely worth a listen.  Finally, they look ahead to games versus Orlando and Philly and get excited about Nashville finally getting their new coach.  And they drink beer.

In this episode, the boys try to avoid talking about Nashville SC, but it happens anyway.  They drown their sorrows reviewing the past week, including the outright steal in Columbus and the complete cluster that went down in Portland.  They quickly cycle through the seven stages of grief, dreaming of an alternate reality and taking their anger out on VAR.  They try to offer some silver linings (and fail miserably), but they do find time to celebrate the great Irish game of hurling.  And if you came for the hot takes, well the boys have them, and they are the hottest that they've had all season. Then, they reminisce about their first jobs as teenagers and speculate on which Nashville SC players would have been the best coworkers in those jobs.  Finally, they look ahead to the upcoming game with DC United and try to find a shred of hope.  And they drink beer.

In this episode, the boys are making like Tay-Tay and shaking off the most recent loss to Miami.  But who cares about that because FORSTER AJAGO has entered the building!  The boys also speculate on when Nashville SC might be getting their new coach (at the expense of the US Men's National Team), they propose a new scheduling strategy for the MLS season and they get real with the very biased Apple TV broadcasters.  Then, they compare some favorite Nashville SC players to automobiles and make some bold predictions for the upcoming week's games versus Columbus and Portland.  And they drink beer!

In this episode, the boys celebrate Nashville SC's first bona-fide win streak of the season.  They recap a satisfying game versus NYCFC, worry about the rising star power of Jakob Shaffleburg and marvel at the accuracy of Evan's Tyler Boyd predictions.  They throw some praise on Josh Bauer, but save their biggest praise for the god-like Walker Zimmerman while also wondering what it was like to be cool in school. They lament the lackluster enforcement of supporter section rules in Geodis Park, reminisce fondly over Franklin, KY's Frosty Freeze and the Snow White Diner in Lebanon, TN. Then, they get serious with a Mount Rushmore ranking of their favorite superhero movies of all time, and highlight why Batman was a fascist.  Finally, they preview the upcoming match versus Miami, make some more bold predictions and enter the week as confident as they've been all season.  And they drink beer.

The boys are back from their break, and they're coming in hot celebrating a come-from-behind victory for Nashville SC in Toronto.  In this episode, the boys herald the return to form for Sam Surridge, and they observe how much the super striker reminds them of Corey Haim.  They also talk about the lost boy Brian Anunga, dream a little dream about Rumba Munthali getting a license to drive the NSC car on his own, and they belt out some Toad the Wet Sprocket.  And there's a winner in the great supporter chant contest!  Finally, the boys conclude with some hopeful predictions for Tyler Boyd in the upcoming match versus NYCFC.  And they drink beer.

In this episode, the boys ride the highest of highs with the win versus FC Cincinnati, and then trod the lowest of the lows with the loss at home to New England.  They celebrate some smart performances against Nashville SC's most hated rival, including a throwback performance from Hany Mukhtar that makes them want to party like it's 2021.  Then, they wonder if it might be a good idea for Apple TV to black out home games(!), discuss the lack of chemistry in Nashville's offense and ponder whether a benching is in order, and they dissect the specific tactics that allowed the team to beat a leader in the standings but lose to a cellar dweller.  Finally, they make some bold predictions for the second half of the season and then revel in the amazing ability of the Simpsons to predict most of recent history with such astonishing accuracy. Plus, they announce a contest that YOU can actually win!  And they drink beer.

In this episode, the boys lament a lackluster performance by Nashville SC in Montreal, scratch their heads at the offensive woes and wonder about where all the chemistry has gone between Nashville SC's best players.  Then, they ruminate on how awesome a Wrexham-style NSC documentary would be, they praise Phil Collins, and they write their own songs to add to the Supporter Section's repertoire.  Finally, they look ahead to games against Cincinnati and New England, expose some of their guilty pleasures, and geek out over 90's female R&B artists and ESPECIALLY JANET JACKSON.  And if you couldn't tell by this summary, they also drink beer.
