Episodes
In this episode! Joe and Cody are joined by special guest Nix Searcy! We look back at our preseason predictions, get nerdy on the accomplishments Racing has stacked this season, and give our End of Season Superlatives!
Thanks for another great season, and we'll see you in 2026!

In this episode:
Lavender family, we have crossed the divide.
We look back at our first post-season game.
There's no preview, but we are ECSTATIC to have made this episode.
It's one more than we have ever made.
We also chat about how we move forward and changes in the league.
Join us in the following weeks with a Lauren Milliet interview and our post-season recap.
We go again.
In this episode: Apparently when you do good with the season, they let you keep playing as long as you keep winning. They call them "Playoffs". It's a terribly novel idea I hope will stick around so we can do it again next year.
We look back at how Racing secured a spot in these "Playoffs" by hanging Bay out to dry, and look forward to the first game of these "Playoffs" against the Spirit....
In this episode: We look at the points that could have been against Gotham, Look at the FINAL playoff scenarios, and Look at washing away the bay! (Spoiler: Joe's about to rupture having had to wait for this game for two weeks.)
THE END IS NIGH
In this episode: we carry the day in Cary, but struggle at home against Chicago, look at national team call-ups, and look ahead to a high stakes game against the Wayne Enterprises company team! Plus, a THIRD team playing at Lynn Family Stadium?
In this episode: we pay tribute to the Royals and soar above the Angels! We look at another 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨 roster move, and look forward to standing Brave against the Courage and making the Stars see stars! The homestretch for the playoffs is REAL.
In this episode! We get stuck by the Thorns and take a knee to the Reign, rattle off some stayings and goings, and look to the climb (but descent?) to Utah and ask if we can clip Angel wings at home!
In this episode: Racing rides the Wave to victory only to have their hopes Dashed at home. A new Purp enters the chat, and we look ahead to back to back games against the two Cascadian teams directly above Racing on the table.
In this episode! We roar back against the Pride and make peace with the Spirit; we talk about who's coming, who's staying and who's going, and look forward to breaking the Wave and dashing the hopes of the Dash! Plus! A look at how far we've come this season and an homage to our robotic overlords!
In this episode: We lament the strength of the Current, speculate on incoming transfers, and look ahead to a difficult road trip. Let us know who your dream signing at Right Back would be!
In this episode: We look at a whole lot of stats, compare this year to seasons gone by, and speculate wildly about the futures an absurd number of free agents. All with a special guest host!
In this episode: Joe interviews breakout GK sensation Jordyn Bloomer!
She shares a fascinating insight on being in the spotlight, How she approaches her newfound gameday routine, and where she finds herself in Louisville on her off-days!
(Editorializing here, but I laughed so much on this episode. This might be my favorite so far. -Cody)
In this episode: We look at trying to hold back the tide at KC, and stand proud against the Pride! And (believe it or not) look forward to KC after the Int'l break. This is an interesting stretch of games...
In this episode: We look back at dethroning the Royals, Talk about a new player (and a prospective one as well!), And stare down the beginning of the Gauntlet that is KC and Orlando. Plus! El Bluegrassico Femenil! (or something. I hope we're still workshopping that title.)
In this episode: we look back at a dreary day with the Reign and doing the good work against Angel City, go around the world on international call-ups, and look forward to a crowning work against the Royals!
In this episode: We look back at dashing the Dash and bringing justice to Gotham! Talk about some surprise sizzle that had been hiding on the roster the whole time! And look forward to drizzling on the Reign and saying our prayers against Angel City. Also, Racing is actually crazy good, we being receipts.
In this episode: we look back at the riptide against the Wave, negotiating the briar patch at Portland, and look forward to outrunning the Dash at Houston and welcoming Wayne Enterprises as Gotham comes to Louisville.
BTW, we launched a division two team. SURPRISE!
In this episode: Joe interviews multinational superstar and Olympic Gold Medalist Janine Sonis! We talk about how American soccer compares to abroad, Where the league is now, and what one of the most famous Canadian soccer players feels about the nascent division one league up north. (Also about her adorable puppy).
In this episode! We look back at an unspirited performance against the Spirit, look forward to crashing the Wave, and sticking it to the Thorns!
