Sad Bois FC
Hosted by Adnan Basic, John Carollo · EN
Sad Bois FC was formed when three amateur/semi-pro soccer writers covering the Chicago Fire decided to join together and talk about how sad their favorite teams make them. RJ left to buy some milk a couple years back, but you can still join Adnan and Jiggly as they discuss the soccer that they care about. With a healthy mix of Bundesliga, MLS, and even J-League talk, this podcast is a free roam around the world of soccer.
