Hey everyone, it's Angela here from Casual FC! In this super chill episode, I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Jackie, the powerhouse behind Women Kick Balls. We've been itching to get her on the show since day one because, honestly, Jackie is just dope. We dove right into her journey of braving the sports journalism world, a path she boldly chose despite being told it was a dying field. And let me tell you, the story behind the name 'Women Kick Balls' is as cool as it gets, partly inspired by Sydney Leroux's Twitter bio and fully backed by the most important men in her life. We also got into the nitty-gritty of the NWSL season - from the excitement around expansion teams and rookies to the curious case of off-season moves and the ever-rotating coaching carousel. Jackie shared some insightful and funny experiences from attending games, navigating the sports journalism world, and the importance of representation in media. And yes, there were lots of laughs, some insider's look into the freelancing grind, and anticipation for what's shaping up to be a bonkers NWSL season. And of course, we couldn't help but get a bit nostalgic about the legends of the game while looking forward to the fresh faces. So, hit play and join us for an episode filled with soccer love, giggles, and maybe a tiny bit of fangirling over Jackie and everything she's doing over at Women Kick Balls.FOLLOW US ON SOCIALINSTAGRAM | TWITTER | TIKTOK | THREADSSUPPORT THE POD1) Leave a review where ever you listen!2) Buy fun merch at shop.casualfc.com3) Buy us a coffee at buymeacoffe.com/casualfcpodFind other great WoSo pods at https://casualfc.com/support-woso-pod00:00 Introduction and Behind the Scenes00:32 Welcome to the Podcast and Guest Introduction01:54 Jackie's Journey in Soccer Journalism01:58 The Birth of 'Women Kick Balls'04:26 Jackie's Freelance Life and Soccer Coverage05:09 Fun Interactions and Stories06:10 Recalling the Draft Day11:24 Looking Forward to the New Soccer Season11:32 Excitement for New Teams and Rookies12:39 Anticipation for Off-Season Moves and Coaches13:46 Reflecting on Changes in the League15:20 Discussing Age and Athletic Performance15:49 Reflecting on Soccer Legends16:42 Anticipating the Energy of West Coast Teams17:21 Debating Time Zones and Game Schedules19:50 Experiencing Soccer as a Fan21:13 Navigating the World of Sports Journalism24:40 Anticipating the Upcoming Soccer Season27:13 Wrapping Up and Looking Forward ★ Support this podcast ★

Orlando City had a mixed week of soccer since our last show. The Lions got a last-minute goal to send Wednesday's U.S. Open Cup match against Nashville into extra time and then won another dramatic penalty shootout. Then on Monday, Orlando played down to (or below) the level of a struggling D.C. United side and dug too deep a hole to climb out of in a 5-3 home loss. We break down both matches, check the results against our predictions, and make our Man of the Match selections. We also analyze the departure of Silvester van der Water and what the potential loss of Joao Moutinho would mean. The Orlando Pride played better at a racetrack than at their home soccer stadium. The Pride had a great opening 20 minutes but still conceded twice in what looked like yet another shutout loss. But then Orlando found the right groove and stormed (Strom'd?) back for a 2-2 draw with Racing Louisville. In other Pride news, we discuss the departure of Sydney Leroux to Angel City and the signing of Malta international Haley Brugeja. OCB traveled to Rochester and the Young Lions got another Jack Lynn goal but not the win in a 3-2 road loss. Plus, we spent a few minutes on the USWNT and the U-20 USMNT (featuring Orlando City's Michael Halliday). This week's mailbag asked us about the Tampa Bay Rowdies, our favorite Orlando City penalty kicks, and what's wrong with the Lions at the moment. If there's anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the next show, just ask by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC. Finally, we gave our key match-ups and predictions for Orlando City's home match coming up Saturday against Inter Miami. Stay safe and enjoy the show! 0:15 - A draw that felt like a win and a loss that felt like a bigger loss. Plus, goodbye to Silvester van der Water. 50:54 - The Pride rally back at the track and some player comings and goings. OCB lost away. The USWNT faces an important competition and the U-20 men just finished one. 1:04:26 - Our mailbag and our predictions for Inter Miami. Learn more about your ad choices.

Orlando City got smoked in Montreal like the meat they sell at the delis there. The Lions were never really in the 4-1 road loss, even when they cut the 2-0 deficit in half on Joao Moutinho's goal. The side was missing much more than center back Robin Jansson. It was lacking any kind of connectivity from back to front. As a result, the Lions attempted only two shots in the match — an even more dismal offensive output than in the home loss to New York. We break things down a bit and select our Man of the Match. We were much more pleased with Tuesday's result — a 2-1 home win over the Philadelphia Union in U.S. Open Cup action. The Lions had a lot more ability to break lines and shuttle the ball forward with Junior Urso, Andres Perea, and Alexandre Pato keeping Facundo Torres and Ercan Kara from getting too isolated. It wasn't a perfect outing. Many mistakes were made. However, it was a step in the right direction and hopefully one upon which Oscar Pareja can build. We selected our Man of the Match for the U.S. Open Cup win as well, and we were unanimous again. Two new Lions joined the team this week but only one will play in 2022. Jake Mulraney provides much-needed coverage on the wing, while future star Gaston Gonzalez will have to wait until 2023 to show us what he can do because of his unfortunate knee injury. The Orlando Pride traveled west and brought back Amanda Cromwell's first NWSL victory from Sunday's 1-0 road win at Angel City FC. Sydney Leroux's goal was just about enough and the Pride were fortunate not to pay for several misses that could have put the game out of reach before halftime. Orlando was easily the better side for the first half hour but things got a bit dicey over the last hour. When needed, Erin McLeod came up big. It's an important building block for the Pride. OCB was off for the second straight week. This week's mailbag asked about movies I haven't seen yet, how to rank the trophies from various MLS competitions, and who the Lions should want to play in the next round of the Open Cup. If there's anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the next show, just ask by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC. And we closed the show by giving our key match-ups and score predictions for Saturday's return to Canada as Orlando City visits Toronto FC. Stay safe and enjoy the show! Here's how No. 294 went down: 0:15 - Orlando City had mixed results, bombing badly in MLS play and then performing well to advance in the Open Cup. 39:13 - The Pride were much better in the second week of the regular season against Angel City. 58:57 - The mailbag beckons and we have predictions for Saturday's match in Toronto.

Orlando City put the 2022 preseason to bed with a pair of results — a 2-2 draw vs. FC Cincinnati and a 3-1 win over the Tampa Bay Rowdies. The Lions are in full preparation mode for Sunday's season opener against CF Montreal at Exploria Stadium. Before we get to that preview, we look back at the week's worth of news, including which draft picks were signed and which were released. We also close the book on the preseason slate and dive into our thoughts on Orlando City's new “Sunshine” kits. Hint: we like them. There was much more Pride news this week with the NWSL side kicking off its preseason with a 1-1 draw against UCF (and of course it was Sydney Leroux with the lone Orlando goal). The Pride also re-signed a couple of familiar faces last week and some of the team's stars are repping Orlando in international action. We discussed the SheBelieves Cup so far for the USWNT and the injuries on the men's side that will make World Cup qualifying even more difficult. This week's mailbag has our predicted finishing order in the Eastern and Western conferences. We also talked about craft beer and ranked the Sunshine kits. If there's anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the next show, just ask by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC. And we closed the show by giving our key match-ups and score predictions for Sunday's Orlando City opener against CF Montreal. Stay safe and enjoy the show! Here's how No. 283 went down: 0:15 - Orlando City started scoring goals as the preseason wound down but Designated Player striker Ercan Kara missed some valuable on-field time with his teammates. The attack scares us probably more than it does the opposition. Plus...how about those new away shirts? 24:38 - Actual Pride news this week! Meggie Dougherty Howard and Kaylie Collins re-signed and the Pride played a match. Plus, there's plenty of national team stuff to talk about as well. Heck, there's even some OCB news. 45:39 - The mailbag gets quite a bit of attention despite there being few questions and we have our first key match-ups and score predictions for the 2022 regular season.

Welcome to The Orlando City Cast! We forget about the City's matchups against Atlanta and Montreal and focus on other things: Orlando Pride and USMNT. The Pride pulled out a 3-1 victory against Louisville with a well fought match. Sydney Leroux was involved in all 3 goals with one goal and two assists. SUPPORT OUR WOMEN!! For the USMNT, they went down 1-0 at the half, but pulled out a 4-1 win against Honduras in World Cup Qualifying. Goals from Aaronson, Pepi, Lletget, and A. Robinson. Major comeback after making some substitutions at halftime. Important players are racking up some injuries.
