Soccerwise: New podcast covering North American soccer, w/ David Gass & Jordan Angeli responsible for the NWSL coverage Soccerwise: New podcast covering North American soccer, w/ David Gass & Jordan Angeli responsible for the NWSL coverage

Sharing this because Jordan is one of my favorite voices in the NWSL space and this coverage package just started in the last couple of weeks so I'm guessing I'm not the only one who was unfamiliar with this development.

Big picture:

"Soccerwise is dedicated to covering the world of North American soccer with informed analysis on MLS, NWSL, the US National Teams, and everything else in between! Multiple times each week, you can join host David Gass, Tommy "Scoops" Bogert of The Athletic, and NWSL broadcaster Jordan Angeli as they break down the top matches, players, and stories in North American soccer, all while answering listener questions."

NWSL-specific:

  • Live on Wednesdays at 2pm on YouTube & Twitch - Soccerwise: NWSL Edition - with David Gass and Jordan Angeli (episodes subsequently posted on Spotify and other podcast platforms)

  • Additionally, there will be "Weekend Review" podcasts from David Gass dropped Monday mornings that will cover the weekend's event and be responsive to reader questions (a mix of NWSL, MLS, national teams, etc.)

They have a Patreon with different membership levels and benefits, plus they can be found on various social media, podcast, and other media platforms, some of which are accessible through their Linktree page: https://linktr.ee/soccerwisehq
