Before Friday night's kickoff to the 2021 USL L2 season, Tim gets the chance to sit down with Coach Mick Giordano to discuss what the most significant changes are in the move to L2, what he thinks of each of the other clubs in the Deep South Division, and how recruitment was impacted by the pandemic.
Taking the podcast to the moon, Tim welcomes Colton Coreschi and Jim Hicks on to discuss whether they would buy, sell, or short the stocks of the professional soccer leagues in the US. After some surprising choices, a lightning round of questions are answered. This episode gleefully contains adult language.
In a unique episode, Tim chats with Nathan Phillips about the general civic health of Asheville and cover topics such as the Memorial Stadium Bond Project and the Tourism and Development Authority, if Asheville a sports town, and does the city government practice what it preaches?
As the rest of the country is giving thanks, Tim and @chattagooner engage in an annual "airing of grivences," because they have a lot of problems with you people and now you're going to hear about them. Touching on fans at games during a pandemic, territory rights in the lower leagues, and viewing women's soccer through the lens of the men's game, the pair let loose their grievences so they may bound into the new year lighter and with a clearer heart and head.
For this episode, Tim had the chance to have a conversation with the new commissioner of the First Flight League, Zac Hines, and member of the league, Yocuba Aide, owner-coach of the Goldsboro Strike Eagles. Zac lays out the ambitious plans for the league and Yocuba details what makes Goldsboro and other First Flight clubs unique in comparison to other amateur men’s clubs across the state.
Covering a year in their fandom, Tim speaks with Jim Hicks (@chattagooner) and Ben Goshorn (@thesoccergoose) about their three concurrent experiences as supporters of three unique clubs in the same soccer ecosystem. Only in this country could Chattanooga FC's first year as a pro cub, the trials off-of and success on-the-pitch of the Charlotte Independence, and the complete cancellation of Asheville City's season all happen. Settle in, it's a long and extremely thoughtful conversation where all three fans try to work through their emotions and expectations.
In this episode Tim sits down with the brillant Darbi Lockridge (@sonchyenne) of the Switch The Pitch outlet to discuss her opinion on NWSL expansion, how a women's minor league would help advance the game, and what the Fare Report on diversity and inclusion in the game at all levels meant to her and what needs to be done to address the findings.
Picking right up where they left off, Tim welcomes Warren Wilson Coach Mathes Mennell to discuss a litany of topics ranging from bubble tournaments, the upward mobility of second divison coaches, the true talent level of MLS players, and how COVID will impact summer league soccer.
For this edpisode, we reconnect with @chattagooner, Jim Hicks, to catch up on NISA and their successes and challenges as an independent league. Jim peaks on how feels Chattanooga FC's first year as a professional club has gone, what Detroit City selling fan shares means, and how NISA is faring in terms of expansion.
