Two many goals - Ep. 80

It was a two game week to forget for the Reign after losing to Angel City and Denver.

In this special edition of The Cooler Guild we welcome Grant Engle from Into the Channel onto the pod to guest co-host with Van while Coop is away on vacation. We chat about the ups and (mostly) downs of the week’s losses, take community questions, praise the Etsy witch, and Grant gives us his guide to this year's UEFA Women’s Champions League.

The Maddies craft another win - Ep. 77

Finishing could use some work but 3 valuable points were picked up. The Reign defeated Houston 1-0 last weekend, continuing a four-game home unbeaten streak. We discuss the team's statistical dominance in the match and our frustrations with the lack of offensive production, and give the defense our praises. We also cover results from around the league, talk about Van's question to NWSL commissioner Jessica Berman, and preview the Reign's next match.

Goals continue, point earned - Ep. 73

It was nervy at the end but Reign finally took down Bay FC.

We discuss all the happenings of the match and what progress we are seeing as the second half of the season gets started. We also cover this week’s results from around the league and preview the Reign's next match.

Bay Schooled by Fishes

Laura Harvey sets another record. The Reign were able to put last week’s late collapse behind them, securing a 2-0 win over the San Diego Wave and making Laura Harvey the first NWSL coach to reach 100 wins with one club. We get into the result, what worked, what didn’t work, as well as reflect on how the team is looking at the halfway point of the season. We wrap up the show by going over other results from around the league and previewing the Reign’s next match.
