In the podcast's first ever emergency episode, Tim talks his way through his own emotions and the facts of the announced move for the men to USL League 2. He explains the landscape of the lower leagues when the club was formed and what the series of events was that landed us at this decision. Then without bias, he tries to lay out the facts - pros and cons - of the decision and its impact on the other aspects of the club. 

In this two part episode, Tim chats with Dan and Keith of the @forwardsbackwa2 podcast about Forward Madison's first season, the history of soccer in the state, and their 2019 Irruption Tour. Then he goes solo to discuss local high school and college teams, as well as give some updates on ACSC specific items. To round out the episode, he touches base with the lower leagues across the country. 

Post-season crosover episode with @chattagooner of the @423soccerpod discussing the end of the NPSL season, cups and leagues, where NPSL and NISA both stand, and what future league options there are for both CFC and Asheville City. 

Both seasons are recapped in this solo episode which breaks down the playoff games, pluses, deltas, and names players of the season. At the end Tim details a bit about what the offseason will look like for the club and the podcast. 

As both the women and the men begin their run through the playoffs, Tim chats with Ben about a variety of the ins-and-out of the both seasons, successes and challenges, and why pre-season predictions are a fool's game. The conversation then shifts to NISA and how their slow rollout and lack of information has them already stumbling out of the starting block.

In possibly our favorite episode we've ever done, Tim is fortunate enough to speak with Galen, Becca, and Dan of Prideraiser (and all Chattahooligans) about the amazing late night origin story of the campaign and the evolution from Wordpress to a unique fundraising platform. For the first time since its inception, the nuts and bolts of Prideraiser are explored in detailed and why it is soccer culture that is able to put aside sporting competition and rally around civic causes in this way.

To kick-off the second half of the men's season, Tim and Coach Mic discuss the results up to this point, surprise players across the Southeast, and why the game against Greenville this weekend might be the most important game in Asheville's history. Then at the end of the conversation, there is a bit of talk on potentially playoff opponent scouting and US Open Cup hypoteticals.
