Now that Annie & André have (semi-) recovered from the Spirit's unceremonious yeeting from a playoff spot they decided it's the perfect time for a season overview!

In part 1 they discuss the season as a whole, looking at early performances, where and when the dip occurred, formation changes, and key games throughout the season. They also chat further about the search for a head coach, detail free agents (restricted and unrestricted), and the expansion draft.

André also daydreams about abolishing the draft in favor of a signing day, but is quickly brought back to reality by Annie. Please listen, subscribe, rate and review!

Well, that was unexpected! After just one season the Washington Spirit announce that head coach Mark Parsons 'will not return.'

Annie & André discuss potential reasons for the parting of ways, wonder what it means for front office expectations, and look at a few coaches looking for jobs who could be on the Spirit's list.

Well, that wasn't how things were supposed to go. The Washington Spirit were the only team to lose a playoff spot on the final day. Pain. Hurt. Sads.

Annie & André sift through the match from Trinity Rodman's red card to Amber Brooks filling in at the 9 to see if we can find silver linings, and reasons to be proud despite of the result.

Then, it's André's turn to apologize for conjuring the potential jinx/curse of Die Schwarzgelben.

Annie & André review the big point gained in Seattle on Megan Rapinoe's final farewell to Lumen Field. We discuss the game, how the Spirit coped with a record setting environment, and how close they were to three points.

Then we look ahead to NWSL DEADLINE MADNESS CHAOS DAY! The Spirit have one of the most interesting matchups of an incredible final matchday. We look at the table, ramifications, and how they can look to San Diego's performance for help on neutralizing North Carolina's intricate style of play.

Then, we bring back our threats, because 15,000 is the minimum. Get to Audi, bring a friend, and get rowdy. This is your mandate, Lance has spoken.

Annie & André recap a dramatic and much needed win over Kansas City! We relive the goals, the difference between the first and second halves, midfield concerns but midfield fixes, and being in awe of God Mode Trinity Rodman.

André also rants about why he thinks EA Sports gets ratings wrong (beyond #engagement from rage tweets) and Annie confesses to possibly jinxing the team.

After interviewing several Washington Spirit players and hearing from multiple that Dorian Bailey controls the music for the team, we had to know more. So Annie & André conducted a special Hey Spirits investigation and went straight to the source: DJ Dor herself!

DJ tells us all about her process, how she reads the reactions to what she plays, how she sources new music, what she likes to listen to, and was gracious enough to drop a gameday playlist for Spirit supporters!

Annie & André are back with another episode and this time we had the pleasure of speaking with the very chill, fun and funny Washington Spirit forward: Lena Silano!

Before we get to our interview with Lena, we recap the Spirit's frustrating 2-0 loss to Gotham FC. We wonder if it's time to panic yet, whether formation changes are to blame, and look at the Spirit's attack.

Then we shift gears because we had a great, all-encompassing chat with Lena Silano. She gave us insights into her path as a pro, work she had to do to find herself and how it benefited her and her game, Barbie, hangin' with Barney at Costco, candy corn, and more!

IT'S THE PAIGE METAYER INTERVIEW!

Paige is one of the very best stories in the NWSL this season so she sat down for a one-on-one chat with André to tell us all about her journey. From falling in love with soccer before the age of 4 and demanding to play, to her journey joining the Spirit and growing into a day 1 starter, Paige walks us through her career so far.

We also talk about her first goal, playing and learning from Andi Sullivan and Sam Staab, "instinctual sauce", what it's like to play at Audi, pancakes, Dixie Chicks, and of course her thoughts on candy corn.

Hey Spirits, we have a very fun interview in which Annie & André got the chance to chat with the one and only Ashley Hatch!

We ask Ashley Hatch about the secrets to her consistent goalscoring, her perspective on all the changes at the Spirit, her hilarious video displaying her husband's hole-in-one, her baking show, plus missing the World Cup and how she's still processing being left out.

We also put her on the hottest of seats by asking for her favorite goal, assist, teammate, and if she would refer to herself as a Swiftie. Oh, and of course, her thoughts on candy corn.

Annie & André begin the episode with a sad review of the match at the weekend. The Spirit pelted 21 shots at the Red Stars, but lost 2-0. We discuss what went wrong, and how it impacts the final games of the season.

But then we shift to a delightful conversation with Washington Spirit left back, Gabby Carle! Gabby tells us why she chose the NWSL (and the Spirit), relives her masterful evasion of André's question in a recent presser, explains why she doesn't do superstitions, and lots more!
