Podcast — We’re back for another women’s soccer based show! That’s right, we say “women’s soccer” because we’re not just limiting our show to the NWSL! With R.J. Allen out this week, producer Ian Knighton stepped forward and led the Liga MX Femenil discussion.
Each member of the trio picked a team. Listen to see if you match up with Ian (Cruz Azul), Rachael Kriger (Tijuana “Xolos”) or André Carlisle (Chivas)! Don’t worry, next week we’ll be having R.J. pick a team, too.
The show notes are below for listeners. Don’t forget to support us on Patreon!

André Carlisle writes some, tweets a lot and tires not to let soccer ruin his life — and he often fails at all three. Still, the sport is his favorite thing in the world and it is an honor to have it step on his emotions. If you want to read things that André writes, or laugh at his angst, you can find him on Twitter @not_carlisle, covering the Washington Spirit at Black and Red United or writing about Chelsea at We Ain’t Got Not History.
Also, like any dejected wannabe columnist in this era of digital media, he also has a newsletter called No Love in Fear — though he’s no quite sure what he’s doing with it yet. You have been warned!
