  • Best Whitecaps podcast out there

    Other footy podcasts that claim to cover the Caps don’t have the passion and thoroughness of AFTN. Sure, it runs a touch long, but most of the content is worth staying for.

  • Easy to like, informed, west coast soccer discussion

    I really enjoy the tone of this show. You can hear the affection for the game and culture - and among the hosts as well. It’s quirky, not too serious, not a nerd fest but still professional and informative. McColl is a great interviewer in a light hearted way. Following a Whitecaps team that has been very hard to like over the years, this show is required listening for mental health.

    This is an amazing Soccer podcast. This is the top whitecaps podcast and covers MLS, CPL, CanMNT and so much more. The contributors to the episodes are well entrenched in West Coast Canadian soccer culture!!!

  • Top notch

    Excellent coverage of Canadian soccer and specifically the Whitecaps. If you are not into the CPL you can skip over that section but I personally admire their passion for including these new and emerging players and coaches in a serious journalistic way. On the Caps!

  • Real supporters of local Canadian soccer

    These guys know the game, all the ins and outs of the local soccer community and true fans of the Canadian game. I look forward to every pod and feel disappointed when I forget to listen each week.
