The Show:
Here's our marketing pitch for today's installment: "Last week's jokes made less funny."

That's right. It's that good.

A word of warning to listeners, faithful or otherwise: if you begin listening about 20 mins into the show, you probably won't miss that much.

That said, if you begin even 55 mins into the show, you probably won't miss that much.

There are three things you need to know:

2. Today's dramatis personae is (in order of tact):
Kevin Meek

Eamon ffitch [sic]

3. Critics and audiences agree that today's show is the best ever. Look inside to understand why.

This is an Inter Milan fight song, "Pazza Inter Amala," sung by the actual Inter squad from around 2003, I'd guess.

If you've listened to this week's show, this is what I tried to play at the show's beginning.

Special thanks to Antonella in Istres, France.

This week, our guest is Tina Antolini, reporter, producer, and uber-radio-personality for NPR-affiliate WFCR 88.5 FM in Amherst MA. As Part II in our Soccer Show Learns the Radio, Tina helps us realize--and this is unfortunate--but she helps us realize that, to become a half-decent show, we might have to put in some actual effort.

That said, this will be Tina's last appearance on Goal.

In other news, Carson invites everyone over to his house Sunday night for a little Roma - Catania action...and beer!

Come one, come all, to the radio event of the century--but don't forget to listen to the The Soccer Show, too!

Perhaps, as a listener of Goal, you've caught on to the fact that we don't always "know what we're doing," or that we aren't what you'd call "professionals." Today we turn our weakness into a strength--or at least a less-debilitating weakness.

Anjali Khosla is the former host of the eponymous Anjali Khosla Show, a talk radio program broadcast from the University of Iowa student radio station. As part of that show and other media work, she has interviewed some pretty stand-out personages--Salman Rushdie, Ira Glass, and (Gang of Four bassist) Dave Allen among them. Today she helps Carson, Kevin, and Eamon begin the incredibly long and mostly-winding road to talk radio competency.

This show marks the first of a two part series called something like, Goal Learns about Radio; or maybe, Radio Literacy and Its Many Dangers.

Note: we basically don't talk about soccer on this episode, so I hope that's fine.

Gentleman, scholar, German: all these words, in no particular order, describe this week's guest, Frank Sleegers.

Join us as Frank leads Nick, Eamon, and Carson on an odyssey...of the mind!

And though the words "mental hackey-sack" are not mentioned explicitly, one gets the distinct impression that they are always about to be mentioned.

Thank you, ladies and gentleman, you look fantastic in that outfit.

If this episode of Goal: The Soccer Show were to write a personal ad, it might go as follows:

Me: Incompetent, hardly ever funny, enamored of myself.

You: Awake.

It's that type of show, people.

On a high note, we learn a new word: anarcho-syndicalist.

Bob restores some order to this week's show, bringing a sizeable portion of the Northampton High girls soccer team with him.

Carson complains about, among other things, his inability to kick a ball more than 10 feet.

Jeremy Church, Kevin Meek, and newcomer Eamon ffitch get the week off, giving Jeremy a whole new week not to watch any games.

All this and more, folks, on Goal: The Soccer Show.

Show for 02Oct06

2006-10-02T09:40:00.000-07:00

Listen

It's a real yawner of a show today for co-host Jeremy Church, as we proceed to actually discuss soccer.

Today's show is based on the premise that you, the listener, are burning to watch soccer, but are wondering where and how. We discuss the mortal quest that is finding foreign socer on television.

Then behold as tensions flare and the aformentioned Church is ridiculed (justifiably) by host Carson Cistulli.

All this and more on Goal: The Soccer Show.

Today Kevin Meek is back along with Carson and Jeremy to help answer the question, "How do we enjoy a soccer game?"

After last week's Soccer 101, we discuss some finer points of the sport, esp. from the viewpoint of spectatorship.

In addition, Carson admits to having a crush on a certain Serie A team. Who could it be?

Sorry for the delay, but here it is!

In this episode, we get down to brass tacks, discussing, rather simply perhaps, How to watch a soccer game.

For many, the game of soccer is not entirely intuitive (see: stoppage time, itself an oxymoron). The Goal crew tries to help its listeners through Soccer 101.

Today we discuss the difficulty of being an ethically-responsible fan, what with so many clubs owned by the wealthy.

Is it possible to support a club without essentially donating money to already wealthy owners?

Is it a contradiction that fans must live with?

Are there clubs which are less evil than others?

This and other questions poorly answered on Goal: The Soccer Show.
