Episode 22: Bay FC Review/Seattle Reign and Centreville Bank Stadium Preview

Episode 24: KC Current Recap and What's Next

Well, I think a lot of folks would agree it went better than it could have, but we once again have to discuss another Legacy loss, this time to the Kansas City Current. First time guest Nicole joins us to recap and share thoughts on the 1-0 loss. No preview this week because the league is on international break for the month of June, but stay tuned to the end to hear what the Swan Dive will be up to over the break (spoiler alert: it involves asking you, the listener to ask us questions). We do have the latest prediction standings going into the break. Latest Standings * Opposition: 11 points * Courtney: 8 points * Andy: 3 points * Legacy guest: 2 points Stay tuned for what we have coping up over the break. Some hopefully fun segments, some fun guests, you will just have to tune in to find out the specifics.

Episode 23: Reign Recap/KC Current Preview

All good things must.come to an end. Don't worry, we arent talking about the podcast (you're stuck with us), but we are referring to the Legacy's unbeaten streak. It's been awhile since we have had to do one of these after a loss, but here we go. Andy and Courtney are joined by second time guest Brendan as they discuss the Legacy's 2-1 loss to Seattle Reign. We get into the good, the bad, the ugly (?) as well as talk a little about our first experience as Centrreville Bank Stadium (spoiler alert: yes, the pretzels were that. good). Then, we were joined by KC Blue Crew VP (and one of Courtney's longest NWSL buddies) Danielle to preview the upcoming match against the KC Current. Danielle gives a little history on the team, going back to the FCKC days, players to look out for (there are several) and gives a little insight in stadium vibes as a fan whose team is also playing in a smaller venue. As always, we end on predictions which were both varied but similar in theme, Current Standings * Opposition: 10 points * Courtney: 7 points * Andy: 3 points * Guest: 2 points This Week's Predictions * Andy: 2-2 draw * Courtney: 2-1 KC Current * Brendan: 2-2 draw * Danielle: 3-1 KC Current We have a little bit of a break coming up after this next game with the next game being July 5th. The podcast will be taking a little break as well but we will have some content for you through the month of June so be on the lookout for that. Thank you to Brendan and Danielle for being on the show! As always you can reach out to us @blfcswandive on Bluesky and Instagram as well as blfcswandive@gmail.com. We want to hear from you.

Episode 22: Bay FC Review/Seattle Reign and Centreville Bank Stadium Preview

After a much needed rest after last week's crazy soccer and podcast schedule, we are back! This week, Andy and Courtney are joined by Boston Legacy and RIFC season ticket member Tyler to not only recap the Legacy game against Bay FC, but also share a little information about Centreville Bank Stadium; the Legacy's new home for the next handful of games. Tyler has some great information and advice on parking, game day vibes and (arguably) most important: concessions. We are also joined this week by Van and Coop from The Cooler Guild podcast to discuss all things Seattle Reign and preview the upcoming match. We had a great time chatting with them so make sure you check out their podcast; they give the info in the recording. Of course, we have to play the prediction game. Courtney was the only one who got points from the Bay FC game and she's closing the gap on our opposition (much to everyone's surprise probably). Results after Game 10 * Opposition: 9 points * Courtney: 7 points * Andy: 3 * Guest: 2 Predictions for Game 11 * Andy: 2-1 Legacy * Courtney: 2-1 Legacy * Tyler: 2-0 Legacy * Coop: 1-0 Reign/Van: 1-1- draw Just a reminder, The Swan Dive is a member of The Blazing Musket podcast network.

Episode 21: Orlando Pride Review/Bay FC Preview

We are back for this week's second episode! Sort of seems like we just did this doesn't it? (spoiler alert, we did). Totally worth it though, because we get to celebrate another Legacy win! Unbeaten in four games and not in last place anymore. Andy and Courtney were joined for this episode by Dave, who is really extending his lead in the "most Swan Dive appearances" race. We had a lot to talk about this week; lineup changes, odd officiating, subs, PKs x2, the return of Nicki Hernandez and more! It's always a fun time when we get to talk about a Legacy win. Unfortunately, we did not have an opposition guest to talk about Bay FC, but that doersn't mean we didnt talk about the team. Courtney, as the resident NWSL history nerd, pulled together some information on the team so we were able to do a little preview for the upcoming match Friday. Don't worry, the prediction game lives on, Andy utilized a random number generator to come up with an opposition prediction for this one, No one got any points from the Pride game. Standing After Game 9 * Opposition: 9 points * Courtney: 4 points * Andy: 3 points * Guest: 2 points Predictions for Game 10 * Andy: 2-0 Bay * Courtney: 1-1 draw * Dave: 2-0 Legacy * Opposition: 2-1 Bay That wraps up a VERY busy week of soccer and a very busy week of Swan Dive. Appreciate everyone listening to us talk even more than usual this week. Thanks Dave for joining us again. If you want to challenge Dave for most Swan Dive caps, reach out to us!

Episode 20: Gotham Recap/Orlando Pride Preview

Happy 20th episode! Hard to believe we have already done so many of these. Thanks to everyone who has been with us thus far. Twenty down, many, many more to go. Even better, we get to celebrate 20 episodes by talking about a big draw against reigning champions Gotham FC. In the first of two episodes scheduled for this week, Andy and Courtney are joined by returning guest Cathy to recap the big road point from the weekend. After that we are joined by Luis from Loud & Proud Orlando Podcast to preview the midweek game vs Orlando Pride. Luis gives us a ton of great information on the Pride over the years, how they are looking this year and what we can all look forward to for this week's match. As always, the podcast ends with our prediction segment. First, a review of the standings after Saturday's game vs Gotham (spoiler alert: Courtney finally guessed it correctly last game, and we are sort of all over the place this week). Results After 8 Games * Opposition Guest: 9 points * Courtney: 4 points * Andy: 3 points * Guest: 2 points Predictions for Game 9 * Andy: 2-2 draw * Courtney 1-1 draw * Cathy - 3-1 Pride * Luis: 1-0 Pride General consensus in these predictions: We are a little afraid of what Barbara Banda could potentially do on an offensive front. Check out the episode for all the details! As always you can reach us @blfcswandive on Bluesky and Instagram and at BLFCSwanDive@gmail.com. Thank you to Cathy and Luis for joining us.
