TBG 135: Quarantine Show | Soccer Shutdown and USWNT

Well, we are here with a new episode in very weird times. We here at the Brewtiful Game hope you are able to shelter safely in place and stay healthy. And for those of you who can’t because you are on the frontline of essential jobs, we very much thank you. We hope we can provide some distraction to your shelter in place days.

So, what to talk about in these trying times? On the soccer front, we look at how different leagues are approaching their shutdowns during the pandemic. Plus, we vent our frustrations at U.S. Soccer after their president has just stepped down over the wretched handling of the equal pay case with the U.S. Women’s National Team. We think we might have a solution to their problems in our humble opinion. (Spoiler alert: EQUAL PAY!!!)

Beyond these soccer and beer topics, we all have clearly been cooped up inside, as this episode gets a little weird. We go from incest Folgers’ commercials to Olestra chips that cause anal leakage. In other words, we had a great time letting off steam. We hope you can hang out with us and do the same through our show.

Beers reviewed in the show:

A Berliner Weisse from Orlando home-brewer Swamp Witch Brewing, and two varieties from 3 Daughters Brewing in St. Pete, FL.

TBG 55: US Soccer World Cup Qualifying and Premier League Manager News

In this episode, we talk the recent World Cup Qualifying matches that the US Men's National Team  took part it. After covering what we think of Bruce Arena's newly revived team, we cover the US Women's National Team and their friendlies played over the same weekend. There has been some manager news back in the Premier League, and since we already miss it the recently departed season, we get sucked back into the Premier League vortex.

Blake had the beer pick for the pod, and chose to go back to one of his favorite breweries. It was a refreshing twist on an IPA from 21st Amendment Brewery. The Brew Free! Or Die Blood Orange IPA turned out to be quite the group pleaser.

Thanks for telling your friends about the show, it really helps us spread the word.

TBG 36: NWSL & US Women's National Soccer Team Update

In this pod special, we discussed the recent NWSL Draft, the recent founding of the North Carolina Courage, and FIFA & CONCACAF awards bestowed upon several of the players from the United States Women's National Team. The other big news to cover was USWNT stars opting to postpone their NWSL play (or leave the NWSL completely) for a chance to play in Europe. With Ron still under the weather, Ferris and Blake were joined in the studio by local NWSL and women's soccer expert Caitlin Elliott.

Since Caitlin was visiting our studio live for the first time, she wanted to provide the beer of the pod. She picked a good one in Green Man Brewery's delicious porter. We had a lot to say about this beer.

TBG 34: Premier League Matchdays 19 & 20 - Midseason Sackings - Scorpion Kicks

Our 34th episode, and the first one of the new year! We can hardly belive how the time has flown. So here's what we are talking about in this episode. After the Premier League has stuffed as many matches as possible at the end of December, and the beginning of the new year, we have a lot of to talk about. We also look back at the predictions we made at the beginning of the season to see how they are faring. We talk about the Premier League's great manager culling of the bottom teams, and also take a look at the national call-ups for USA's Men and Women's National Teams.

The beer review for this episode was a fancy one. Ron introduced us to the Belgian made Trignac XII from Castle Brewery Von Honsebrouck. It was a Belgian Trippel aged in congac barrels. Give a listen to see what we think of it. It was so fancy, we had to drink pinkies out.

Pinkies out!

Thanks for joining us for our first year. We hope you have a happy 2017.
