Soccer Snobs
Sports & Recreation Podcasts
We are a soccer podcast! We are the biggest soccer snobs, and our fearless leader, the CFO of Cap City Beats Kwame Telemaque had heard enough of us wasting our opinions in the parking lot after soccer games and offered us a spot to do a show on his App! We jumped at the chance to give our opinions on all things soccer, but our mandate is to stay AWAY from the news of the day. We talk about things that actually matter, and that don't often get spoken about. So leave the big European news in the dust and come join us on this adventure. You never know what we will end up talking about. Marc, Steve and Jay are all former varsity soccer players and have been friends for years. They also worked as a trio Coaching the Ottawa Fury PDL Men's Team for 5 years, winning 4 division titles along the way.
