    Love!
    I love listening to Anna and Scotty weekly. Their analysis of the NWSL is always interesting and informative and leaves me with new information about the athletes/leagues etc. Love this show!

    LOVE this content!
    SFTP is a fun, upbeat podcast that keeps me informed on all things soccer. I love how the content varies week to week, but covers NWSL, MLS, National Teams, international leagues and more! Anna and Scotty both have great expertise on the topic and have great camaraderie. Give them a listen!
  • Mattahew
    Great new podcast covering NWSL and MLS
    Love this new podcast! Both hosts have a wealth of experience playing/coaching/covering the sport in the US. I really enjoy the in depth analysis of weekly games and current events. They do a good job of keeping the conversation engaging and bringing in guests involved in the soccer world. They had Sam Coffey (top tier NWSL player) on recently. Excited to see who else they have on in the future.
