Ella & André tag team to preview the Washington Spirit's semifinal versus NJ/NY Gotham FC!
But first, we review the news of three Spirit players being nominated for end-of-year awards. We discuss their impact, and the adorable way in which the news was broken to the players by Andi Sullivan.
Then we get into previewing the massive upcoming match. We look at past results and why you probably shouldn't read too much into them. We spotlight players to watch (including the returning Rosemonde Kouassi), and matchups we're intrigued to see. We discuss the clash in styles, and why the Spirit will have to play differently to counteract Gotham's pressure.

Annie, Ella & André are still in awe of the Washington Spirit's quarterfinal win over Bay FC! It wasn't the best the team can play, but the problem-solving Spirits—comprised of several rookies—withstood a dangerous opponent, then fought back to win in front of the rowdiest Audi we've ever seen or heard!
We talk about why Bay caused the Spirit so many problems, what they did to adjust, the Alyssa Malonson of it all, Tara McKeown being a CB and forward all-in-one, and Trinity Rodman finding a way against a difficult opponent.

Annie, Ella & André start off with a message about the present climate we find ourselves in, and how much more important this community is right now.
Then we dive into previewing the Spirits upcoming playoff scrap with Bay FC! We look at some parallels between the teams, including big midseason changes, a loss of key players, and dynamic players stepping up to do dynamic things.
After, we dive into the matchup, where the Spirit can have success, and where they need to be cautious. We also chat about the super in-form Racheal Kundananji, and get big mad all over again about Rose Kouassi being suspended for this match. Then Annie tries to wrap up but André pulls a nerd in the classroom move and makes us suffer through predictions.

Annie, Ella & André recap the Spirits becoming the first team to beat North Carolina at home this season. We review the performance, the rookie midfield, Ashley Hatch continuing to score goals, and Trinity Rodman getting back to herself.
Then we take a moment to review the season overall, including all the changes to the team, and how the Spirit managed them all to make history. Annie has incredible stats on Spirit goalscorers, and AUbrey Kingsbury provides important perspective heading into the playoffs.

Annie, Ella & André recap another strong performance from a more complete but still new-look Spirits squad. Heather Stainbrook's opening goal meant that every rookie has scored this season. We review how important they've all been, and the one trait they all seem to share that makes them unique, and effective.
We also chat about the new midfield showing variation through some different roles, Makenna Morris continuing her goal streak, and Trinity Rodman looking a bit more like Trinity Rodman. Unfortunately, we also review the double red card kerfuffle between Ludmila and Rose Kouassi, and André reflects on his childhood.
Then we talk about the Spirits heading on international breaks, the Ballon d'Or, Levante, RFK, and the final regular season match of the season.

Annie, Ella & André recap yet another magical night at Audi! A new look XI dominated the game against a playoff-desperate Racing Louisville, and put up four goals in the process.
We discuss each strike (including Makenna's thunderblast), Rose Kouassi's breakout game, Hal Hershfelt as a lone 6, and playing for Andi.
Then we discuss potential playoff scenarios, history potentially repeating itself, and a look ahead at next weekend's home game against the Chicago Red Stars.

Annie, Ella and André discuss the ultra cruel 2-0 loss to Orlando Pride that clinched them their first ever NWSL Shield. Then, things got a lot worse.
We begin with a discussion about Andi Sullivan being stretchered off the pitch, and hope beyond hope that it's not as serious as it seemed.
Then we review a depleted Spirits side showing a lot of fight and ability to execute a vastly different gameplan. We also discuss the curious center back decision and cruelest of deflections which led to Orlando's two goals (as if they needed the help, Soccer Gods!).
We also preview the Spirits upcoming match back at Audi against Racing (Rahsing) Louisville. Please subscribe, rate, and review!

Annie, Ella & André review the Washington Spirit's 2-1 win over a desperate Angel City. We discuss the depleted lineup, how important it was that the team found other ways to generate goals, and the dubious decision to give Hal Hershfelt her fifth yellow of the season.
We also demand that Dawn Scott be credited with a hockey assist for Ashley Hatch's goal, marvel at Makenna Morris' chipped finish, shoutout Rose Kouassi, Gabby Carle and Tara McKeown, plus we dissect Aubrey Kingsbury's discretion leading to the match winning goal.

Annie, Ella & André started a podcast to talk about the Washington Spirit and well sometimes that means you have to talk about the Washington Spirit when they lose 3-0 and things went from bad to worse to whatever is beyond that (maybe?).
We break down what went wrong against Kansas City, how the Spirit struggled with a low block, and short corners. Then we move on to discuss Tara McKeown's new contract, and what it means for her career path. After that we preview Friday night's match against a desperate Angel City.

Annie, Ella & André review a mighty comfortable 3-0 win over Houston Dash. We discuss Esme Morgan's debut and quality on the ball, Ashley Hatch's brace, Trinity Rodman being unreal (#GoToGames), and Tara McKeown revisiting familiar territory.
Then we drop our chat with Makenna Morris, who joined us just hours after her new contract was announced. We talk to Morris about her decision to re-sign and why she didn't test free agency, benefits and challenges of versatility, how many books she's read so far this year (hint: SO MANY), and learn all about her pup, who is a lazy boi.
