Hat Picks with Anna & Jillian

Hello. Is it us you're looking for? WELL WE ARE BACK with some INCREDIBALL content for you! We've got real picks, PEWPEWs covering up coughs, tiny bebes, shit roster choices, and SO MUCH MORE. We know you love our nonsense and we love giving it to you! 

For the first time, you get to experience the raw genius that is Hat Picks, UNCUT. No editing (well, barely any editing). Did it still take Jillian 3 weeks to get this uploaded? Yes it did. Are we going to blame the stitches she got in her finger only a week ago? Yes we are. We are bringing you action from the USWNT, the Challenge Cup, and more! 

Y'all we are CRUSHING IT. Listen in for more tips and updates, plus a surprise guest! We're serving you good good, sweet sweet content from the NWSL, UWSNT, and more. You better appreciate this episode because WE TRAGICALLY ALMOST LOST IT. But it's here, for you, dear listeners. Pew pew. 

Dear listeners! It's an episode released the week it was recorded...it's a President's Day Miracle! This pod we talk about highlights from the WSL, A-League, and NWSL. We also talk about a lot of other dumb shit, as per usual, and you know you love it. 

We present to you our episode of only hat tips! This information is old but it's still VERY INTERESTING OKAY? Listen to Anna and Jillian wax poetic about all the shit you care about and more...just faster! JUST THE TIPS! 

Look this episode is way too long and was recorded forever ago and we are slap happier than usual so just...hang in there for some sick content on the NWSL Championship, USWNT, and some other things. 

In a sick twist of events, Jillian jokes about not editing this pod for a week and then edited in 2 days! Wow. Hear us ramble on about the NWSL, WSL, A-League (formerly the W-League, (said in an Australian accent)), and Taylor Swift. Obviously. And Anna hates kids but loves Arsenal. Things are happening so tune in!

FISHLOCK. SALMON. This week we are all about those Brits with fish last names. And by that I mean we talk about 2 of them (are there more? Email us at [email protected]). We also talk about some dope upcoming postseason shit that is now clearly out of date, and update you on the ongoing NWSL situation! AND OF COURSE, Tobin Heath and Midge Purce make an appearance. Not like actually but we talk about them. COOL SOCCER BYE.

In this special edition of Hat Picks, we discuss the bravery of former NWSL players Kaiya McCullough, Sinead Farrelly, Mana Shim, and others who have spoken out about their abuse at the hands of NWSL leadership throughout the years. Because reports of this abuse finally broke into mainstream media, North Carolina Courage coach Paul Riley was fired last week and NWSL Commissioner Lisa Baird was forced to resign. Listen to our (incomplete) covering of this story about how the NWSL continues to fail players and as we reflect on what might happen next.
