One of the funniest and most entertaining podcasts I've ever listened to. Worth a listen even if you aren't into soccer
Podcast Addict55 months agohdhock3y- Where Has This (or Have I) Been?
Update: So, so good! I listened to every episode, and it’s one of the most entertaining shows in any medium (TV series, streaming, other podcasts). The actors are uber-talented/hilarious, and the writing, producing, and editing are perfect. Literally a fan of all of them: looked them up to see who is who, what else they’ve done, and what they are working on.

Hilarious and so in tune with the actual league. Loved it and nearly broke my heart in the final season was very sad but loved the fact that I finished it.

I’m only on the second episode, but this show is great! No idea how I hadn’t seen it on some “Top Podcasts” lists, but it certainly deserves a place on all of them.
