FrauenbundesligaFrauen-Bundesliga
The 2015-16 Frauen-Bundesliga season is underway and Adam sits down with Germany expert Jana Lange in part one of a two-part preview of the season. A virtual who’s who of teams, players, and even a few goats. After this segment, you’ll be the hit of Octoberfest with all your German league knowledge.

USWNT
AJ “Postgame Gator” Johnson covered the USA vs Costa Rica match in Chattanooga, Tenn. on August 20, 2015 and came away a little wet but with a lot of great soundbites from Abby Wambach and Coach Jill Ellis. Also, listen to AJ’s one-on-one with legendary midfielder Shannon Boxx. It’s guaranteed to leave with a smile on your face.

A Zanzibar Soccer Story
Patty welcomes film maker Megan Shutzer to the show for an in-depth discussion on her groundbreaking documentary New Generation Queens: A Zanzibar Soccer Story. This eye-opening film documents the inspiring story of the women of Zanzibar as they prepare to compete for the first time in the Copa Coca-Cola tournament in Tanzania. This remarkable film brings us into a world where women are not allowed to play (that shouldn’t even be a sentence), but who’s spirit and passion  to play the beautiful game is breaking barriers and changing a culture.
