52 - Yanks in Europe | This is our 52nd weekly show, which means the Total Football Soccer Show is now one year old. Yay us. To celebrate we spend the show talking about Americans playing in Europe.

Total Football Soccer Show - Episode 51 - The Forbidden Team | With Daryl away on holiday and Josh watching baseball/drinking, Taylor headed to the studio at 12:00AM Thursday morning to make a transatlantic phone call. The reason? He needed to wake up his new Danish friend, Arnold Kroeigaard, who also happens to be one of the directors of the brilliant documentary"The Forbidden Team". Despite it being a late night/early morning for dear Mr. Kroeigaard, he roused himself from a peaceful slumber to discuss the unofficial Tibetan National Team, their origin, relations with China (or lack thereof), and 2001 friendly with Greenland. Danish football is discussed for approximately 30 seconds and, to close out the show, Taylor has an important announcement! Here's a hint: it's about soccer... or football... whichever you prefer. | 7/28/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

50 - The World Cup Is Over... What Do We Do Now? | With the final whistle having been blown for the World Cup in South Africa, Taylor, Daryl, and Josh met in studio to discuss what to do now. Or, perhaps more accurately, attempt to give the listeners ideas for how to treat their soccer habits. Topics include where to watch, how to watch, and who to watch. It's a bit of a "Soccer for Newbies" episode, so apologies to our hardcore fans who will no doubt smirk at the suggestion that teams in England (other than United) offer quality soccer. | 7/21/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Daryl's murderous dog, Josh's offers of nudity, and tackiest joke possible are all included as well. Download and enjoy! | 7/14/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

TFSS Plus - USA, England Post Mortem - Part II | The England and USA World Cup 2010 horses are most definitely dead. But we felt the need to beat them some more. Just to make sure they were all the way dead. We discussed mostly USA in part one, which aired on WRIR, but felt both teams - especially England - warranted a part two in a hastily assembled, unedited podcast. So that's what this is. But seriously, we're done now. Obviously we'll talk about USA and England in the future, but for Thursday's show we plan to focus on some of the other 30 teams in World Cup 2010. | 6/29/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Then we use the final six minutes of the show to mock England/allow Daryl to semi-vent/semi-cry. Good stuff all around! | 6/29/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Total Football Soccer Show - Episode 45 - USA, USA, USA... and england... | With Albert somewhere up north (probably inebriated) and Josh somehwere in South Africa (definitely inebriated), only Taylor and Daryl are left in studio to discuss Wednesday's big matchups (at least, if you're American or English). Topics include Landon Donovan being awesome, Bob Bradley being smart, Landon Donovan being awesome, the importance of the 1-0 win over Algeria to the development of American soccer, and also that England team as well...

TFSS Plus - Phone call, the day after USA 2-2 Slovenia, England 0-0 Algeria | With Josh, Albert and Taylor all out of town, Daryl was alone in the studio the day after USA 2-2 Slovenia, England 0-0 Algeria. So he called Taylor and recorded their conversation. And then released it as a podcast. Which actually turned out OK. He thinks. Seriously now, if you listen to only one segment of this show, go straight to the 40:00 mark for a special guest appearance by Taylor's girlfriend Margaret's cousin. Podcast gold. | 6/19/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

TFSS Plus: Communal World Cup Bracket | With just one day to go before World Cup 2010 kick off (I did a pun!) your four co-hosts sat around a big table and did their communal World Cup bracket. Using World Cup Blog's Bracket generator to make sure there were no mistakes, we went group by group then round by round until we arrived at a winner. There was some lively debate, and more than a few off topic insults. But everyone shook hands afterwards and agreed on our eventual winner. And Samuel Eto'o's goal haul. And that the real winner here is geography. That last bit will make sense after you listen to the show. | 6/10/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

The Total Football Soccer Show - Episode 43 - USA vs England preview, plus Luke Moore (from The Football Ramble) interview | In the final radio show before World Cup kickoff, the boys preview the big USA vs England game. As usual it's one England fan (Daryl) versus three US fans (Albert, Josh, Taylor). Unfair. There's also a phone interview with Luke Moore of popular London based podcast The Football Ramble. So that evens things up a bit. We should also have a bonus podcast published tomorrow, in which all four of us do our World Cup bracket together.

Indy Media Live TFSS Takeover - World Cup for Dummies | Rebecca Faris from Indy Media Live was kind enough to invite us onto her show to talk about the absolute basics of this whole World Cup thingy. Unfortunately Rebecca couldn't make it, and so Taylor, Albert and Daryl filled in/took over Indy Media Live for 30 minutes of live radio and World Cup talk on Richmond Independent Radio. Turns out live radio is both terrifying and fun at the same time. Like a roller coaster with loose bolts. Regular show to follow on Thursday, where we'll be looking forward to the England vs USA game. | 6/8/10 | Free | View In iTunes |

Coach Cowlishaw talks about World Cup bound ex-Kicker Tim Brown and reveals where his own USA vs England loyalties lie. This is an extended version of the show broadcast on WRIR Thursday May 27th, with a good 20 minutes of extra USA related discussion and several jokes that we couldn't air on the radio. Not so much because they were rude. More that they just weren't very funny. Enjoy!
