Morrisonic: A Podcast About the Portland Timbers (Mostly): Recent Episodes
Morrisonic
I listened to a bunch of NOFX since last episode and enjoyed it but, guys, this is a good bit.
Please give if you can: https://secure.oregonhumane.org/doggiedash/jennyanddogs
And look for Friday here: https://www.oregondogrescue.org she's off teh site for a few days while she gets her mojo back.
Look, for a pod we didn't really want to record and you didnt really want to listen to about a game we didn't want to talk about, it's like a B+ episode.

For the newbies, this is something we do once a year it has nothing to do with soccer, so feel free to skip if you want.
The book I mentioned is Braiding Sweetgrass

The Morrisonic Christmas playlist is https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/morrisonic-christmas/pl.u-AkAmPN3TXaoLp and the old, not updated Spotify one is https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3G9Pnl4XMZaVJuXRJiUUBk
Four hundred episodes. Thats like 300+ hours. Imagine the things you could do in 300 hours . . .
I left some slice of life stuff at the front because it makes me smile and this podcast is free. If you like it please make a donation to Portland Animal Welfare Team to support houseless and housing insecure animals and their people at www.pawteam.org!
I stayed awake for this game for you, the people. Somehow I lost the first 15 seconds of the podcast.
This is just a tribute. You gotta believe it. And I wish you were there. It's a matter of opinion.
Here's the T shirt we mentioned! https://calyxdesign.com/calyxworks/soccer-watcher-kaiju-portland-timbers-nasl/ Also available in patch form!
Excuse the audio quality, we are in two different countries. There are some adorable dogs from a fire in Eastern Oregon at the humane society right now, and I have it on good authority there's a mess of kittens showing up tomorrow. email morrisonicpod at gmail.com
It's the tail end of kitten season at the humane society people! Plus every dog there is a good dog, I adopted a random POS brown garbage dog there 2 months ago and he is rad as hell.
Also check the pavement temperature when you are walking your dog. If it's too hot to touch, leave em home or put shoes on that dog!
Pete realized he was late for a meeting right as we were about to talk about the game against Minnesota so this is the most dramatic exit for a Morrisonic since the days before Roscoe gave us the bigger memory card and we stopped running out of memory in the middle of pods, which is a thing that happened in teh first two seasons #lore
Let's give Dairon the send off he deserves.
Cartwheels for everyone!!!!!!!
Check out and then support this sweet ass Dos Diegos mural right here https://www.cadacasa.org/murals
Also, I would like to formally replace Fortunate Son by CCR ar Right Back with Back to the Good Life by Weezer
Sorry we were rushed because I had an input dial turned down and I didnt sufficiently eulogize Bill Walton, but hey, lot and lots of people already did. A life well lived.

Soccer ends around the 56 minute mark, then its all woohoo and dead friends. Listen at your peril! morrisonicpod at gmail dot com
The audio on this one was weird and rough. I actually tried to edit it, but I'm not sure if I made it it worse.
A somewhat rushed but well intentioned season preview. Email us at morrisonicpod at gmail.
Join Pat and Dan from Timbros in our annual Oscar podcast in March. Between now and then go ahead and watch all these damn movies. None of them are bad, for once.
I POSTED SOMETHING AN HOUR AGO WITH AN EXTREMELY IRRITATING LAG. USE THIS INSTEAD.

Morrisonic Christmas playlist is up on Apple music. The old one is on spotify but you'll need to add Billy Squier yourself
Honestly, the failing New York Times can absolutely get bent. Keep Portland's name out your goddamn mouth. #rctid
We did a solid 20+ minutes of dad talk and I lost it. It was my favorite Morrisonic ever. We're both going to be fine, but at different rates of recovery.

SAY NICE THINGS ABOUT PORTLAND!!! Probably not its soccer team about the moment, though.

Yikes, sorry about the audio quality, our recording device is stuck on 100 and maybe I have to replace it. Happy Mother's Day.
Yes its's Thursday but Pete was on vacatioln in Canada and I wasn't going to bother him to talk about this crap.
Listen to Big Boy talk about Dallas real estate https://overcast.fm/+9VStHdkjA and DON'T LET THE OLD GUY IN.
There is a disturbing amount of soccer content in this one. It's, like, all soccer. Which is tough, because currently the Portland Timbers, um, stink.
Dan is here to talk about the cee-nay-mah! Email morrisonicpod at gmail dot com if you like it and i'll get him back in less than another year
Sorry, I was running on 3 hours of sleep and it showed, including accidentally clipping the last 20 minutes.
morrisonic at gmail dot com
We're still shaking off the rust. I recorded us at chipmunk speed and had to fix in post, so apologies for any weirdness.
Look, it's a little rambly on my part, but if you like the Squidasonics you'll like this one. Unless you are averse to Christmas and/or Christmas starting immediately after Halloween.
I was bored and bummed, then I was excited for a while, then I remembered to be bummed again. #rctid @morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail
Please vote for Hardesty in Portland, Decker for DA in Washington County, McCleod-Skinner for Congress, Gamba for state rep, Ortega for court of appeals
If you take two things from this podcast, it's that Madison Shanley showed real bravery and we have GOT to get Sheila adopted. https://www.oregonhumane.org/adopt/details/253809/

It's our annual Oscar podcast with Dan from Timbros. 20 of you will love it, the rest of you should feel free to skip
A win over Austin! More proof that Timbers ownership sucks really bad! A game in Dallas before it is the temperature of molten steel! @morrisonicpod
Come original for this beautiful disaster. . . I can't believe I had over 300 episodes to get ready for this and I didn't have anything better planned.
An hour and half on kits and scumbag owners, two things we are kind of tired of talking about! @morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail
Quick audio warning - we did this remote (up yours, Omicron) and there was some clicking on Pete's side and my headphone mic is all echoey, so it may be deeply irritating if you have sensitive ears. Skip if it bugs you. It doesn't hurt my feelings and you have your own Valeri memories. @morrisonicpod for Pete or morrisonicpod at gmail for Pat.
PLAY OFF PREVIEW HELLLLLL YEAH. Listen this is probably Pete's most in depth preview ever, there was a long segment about xG that I could not for the life of me understand but some of you will LOVE then I begged you all to sing Roll on COLOMBIA (get it? Squid didn't get it. It's about all the Colombian players) and then we talked about ticket bullshit but managed to end on a good note.
I have 3 pieces of good news
a) The Timbers won!!
b) Dairon is back for the championship game IN PORTLAND
C) We spent so much time celebrating we ran out of time, so there will be a second pod this week to preview the game against NYCFC
#rctid
I'M NOT SAYING WE'RE DEFINITELY GOING TO WIN THIS GAME BUT I LIKE OUR CHANCES!! #RCTID
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3G9Pnl4XMZaVJuXRJiUUBk?si=ddf35a475b614019&nd=1
Timbers win! Timbers win! Timbers win! Yes that card on Asprilla was BS but let's focus on the HUGE AMAZING POSITIVE and then win that next game so my man Dairon can win us a championship.
PLAYOFF WIN @MORRISONIC OR MORRISONIC AT GMAIL. GO VISIT BEARDEDBOYDESIGN.COM TO GET SOMETHING COOL MADE OUT OF WOOD WITH YOUR LOGO ON IT HE'LL GIVE YOU 10% OFF IF YOU SAY MORRISONIC! THERE IS STILL AN ASPRILLA MAGIC PERFORMANCE COMING! I LOVE SOCCER!!!!!!!!!!
Must be us, because Dairon never left! We'll figure out what's doing after the Cup victory. Until then, let's have fun out there.
We celebrated the 300th episode by talking about some truly terrible stuff we aren't qualified to comment on. Well, I mean I just realized it was our 300th, but the Thorns stuff just makes us sick.
It was short but I'm in a good mood. Revel in the misfortune of bad people, they would do the same to you. @morrisonicpod to talk to Pete, morrisonicpod at gmail to talk to Pat
This went better than I could have hoped. @morrisonicpod for Pete, morrisonicpod at gmail for Pat
It's my birthday. No episode description for you. #rctid @morrisonicpod for Pete or morrisonicpod at gmail for Pat.
It is Nick's birthday! Thank you for coming to Moab when there was nothing for you to do. Thank you for scheduling me a vaccine appointment and maybe saving my life. Thank you (and Boy Nick) for giving me an antigen test when there wasn't a single goddamn one in the whole city. Thank you for making debatably the cutest child in the world. And most of all, thank you for being my friend when I really needed one and there was no real reason you needed a weird older lonely dude friend. Happy birthday.
Please listen to the Hostile Work Environment podcast, their audio quality is amazing and Marc tried to help us, he really did.
Cleanse yourself in the purifying flame of heavy metal music people. Your souls will thank me. Watch soccer I guess. I don't get it but Pete is my friend and it's what he likes talking about.
https://petweapon.bandcamp.com/album/brute-mirth-fetish
I did a bit at the very end of this that Pete absolutely hated. He sounds OK on the pod but you should have seen his face. If I am being honest I actually did at what I thought was the end, and then he did another 5 minutes of soccer content but I cut it and put it at the end anyway.
Also here is Big Corbs' great piece on the Blazers https://www.wweek.com/sports/2021/07/01/fire-neil-olshey/
Somehow I muted Pete on the last one. Not an indication of my feelings for the man, I promise
Can I still scream My Man if he's really become the dependable linchpin of the team? Stay safe everybody - please check on your older neighbors, it's going to be a rough one.
Look, it's really hot and you guys don't read these descriptions anyway. It's a podcast about soccer, this episode is about soccer. Happy?
I looked at the waveform for this before posting and it's like 90% Pete talking. I'll do better next time, he was just on a roll and I don't mind letting him talk..
It's still worth 3 even of the other team is tired. Hit Pat up at morrisonicpod at gmail.com if you want to give money to the doggie dash
Let's keep it light! The sun is shining! Vaccinations are now approved for kids as young as 12! @morrisonicpod
There were dogs fighting so hard 10 feet behind Pete for half the pod. Even if you can't hear it, it was very distracting so, uh, sorry.
@morrisonicpod or morrisonicpod at gmail
Tell your friend to resubscribe to Morrisonic, Pat promises its only soccer this year! Maybe some Blazers. Also if they are annoyed by the Asprilla stuff, maybe they should stay away. Look, use your judgement but my point is we are keeping it light for at least this season.
Pete is going to go on the Eagle Eye podcast, a Club America fan podcast on Tuesday! The guys asked both of us but we all know what he wants. @morrisonicpod for Pete morrisonicpod at gmail for Pat
WARNING SPOILERS AND SWEARING - @Dhollett comes over to talk Oscars for the third year in a row
Pete came over, his back really hurt, 3 stars out of 5. @morrisonicpod for Pete, morrisonicpod at gmail for Pat #rctid
It's 2 away goals, be happy. @morrisonicpod on twitter for Pete. morrrisonicpod at gmail for Pat.
CCL preview sort of and some listener mail. You know the drill. @morrisonicpod and morrisonicpod at gmail
Go to @talkndawoods on instagram for a real breakdown of preseason games, then come back here for a real breakdown! @morrisonicpod for Pete, morrisonicpod at gmail for Pat.
Dairon Asprilla, that's who. Also Pat's heavy breathing is back because he forgot to fix the microphone situation. Also Pete is back. @morrisonicpod if you want to talk to Pete on twitter, morrisonicpod at gmaildotcom if you want to talk to Pat. I would say I love you guys but I only know like 4 of you. The rest of you are strangers.
Mediocre rugby! Racist Argentines! Christmas songs! Listen or don't I don't care!
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3G9Pnl4XMZaVJuXRJiUUBk?si=RBjs_CJATcOWLb1CUU72mA
Pete came over. The audio quality is better. Please stop asking about the audio quality. You don't pay us anything and this isn't our job. @morrisonicpod
Pete refuses to do a podcast because he insists on eating tens of hours of tape of FC Dallas just to have me not pay attention, so here is another Squidasonic. @morrisonicpod
It's a quick one but if you like the improved audio balance, thank Matthew Workman of The Faroe Island Podcast. Vote Sarah Iannarone for Portland Mayor. Please tell everyone you know to vote Sarah Iannarone. This is going to be so close every vote is going to count.
I thought I talked more on this one but I didn't. Send us some questions morrisonicpod at gmail or @morrisonicpod
We say En Zed now. Zed . . . like a kid who just got back from a semester in Barthelona . . . or CheeLay.
BAD AUDIO WARNING, PAT HAD THE WRONG MICROPHONE TURNED ON THE WHOLE TIME. ENJOY? morrisonicpod at gmail or @morrisonicpod
This is not how I thought our 250th episode would go back when I started this. Anyway, Pete had a call in the middle so . . . it's basically like all of the ones we have done in this bullshit year. @morrisonicpod or morrisonicpod at gmail
Listen, I like that we stayed positive, I don't like how I rushed through the RBG opinions provided at great effort to us by friend of the pod Matt Ellis
It's raining! It's raining! Williamson and Jebo are good! Bonilla is promising! Farfan played well! Who cares about the actual results of these games, not us I tells ya! @morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail. #rctid
Official quarantine partner of the pod, Jenny the Squid, comes back to talk about Week 1 of the MItre 10 Cup, which I wasn't on the ball enough to actually watch. Also there is some Cobra Kai talk.
We beat Seattle, Blanco's season's over, Oregon is on fire and I've taken to midday naps. It is what it is. @morrisonicpod or morrisonicpod@gmail.com
A tie that felt like a loss. An upcoming game that feels like a rumor. And an owner who needs to just shut the fuck up - spoilers: we're not talking about RSL @morrisonicpod. email morrisonicpod at gmail for Sarah Iannarone t shirts
Sorry about last week. I got really really sad. Order a sarah for mayor shirt by going to the top of the @Morrisonicpod twitter page or going straight to https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaooqJuXqj32_XeA99qN0uSaNG3YOQp_1x-HZc9RL0emp0OQ/viewform
Listen, we don't sound that excited because it's early and I'm a good neighbor. If you want a Sarah for Mayor shirt, go to https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfaooqJuXqj32_XeA99qN0uSaNG3YOQp_1x-HZc9RL0emp0OQ/viewform
Girlfriend of the pod and New Zealand permanent resident Squid stops by to school Pat on New Zealand, a country ruled by grown ups that gets to have sports, so that he can pick a team to watch on TV that doesn't make him feel like a bad person. Jesus Christ MLS is a BUMMER.
Listen, we have both been battling some stuff (same stuff as the rest of you) for a couple of days and to be honest, we forgot most of the details of the Philadelphia game and . . . hey it's a free podcast. There are no good billionaires and very very very very few good cops. Like, I accept they exist but I still have never met one. @morrisonicpod
Listen, I feel bad about this being fun too. Email morrisonicpod@gmail.com if you want to spend $20 on a rainbow antifa Sarah for Mayor Shirt, supplies are limited! @morrisonicpod
We on a tie!!!!! If you want to buy a t-shirt for Sarah for mayor send me an email with your size and address at morrisonicpod at gmail. Pete will be tweeting out an image soon but you know what it is. @morrisonicpod
Subscribe to Red Smoke Radio please. Vote for Sarah Iannarone! If you want a t-shirt for 20ish bucks, email morrisonicpod@gmail.com and give me your size. These tri-blend shirts run a little sexy, so when in doubt pick the larger size. You can pay me later.
Look we both overslept and Pete had an 8am call so this is a short one. Also Pat swears. @morrisonicpod on twitter to talk to Pete morrisonicpod at gmail to talk to Pat
I feel bad about feeling good about watching soccer. @morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail
Listen I have no idea how this is 58 minutes long either. Oh and Pat swears in this one
Yep, they are doing it. We aren't boycotting but man am I sick of this shit. @morrisonicpod or morrisonicpod at gmail
Check out www.pdx-blm-events.org and go show people where you stand (and march) @morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail.
Pull up a chair, you're going to want to hear this. @morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail
Pat calls Pete with 20 minutes to pod and goes over by 35 minutes talking about Joe vs The Volcano, which is a perfect movie. @morrisonicpod
It's a quick one! The sound quality is especially terrible because the kittens ate Pat's headset. Other than that . . . you know what? it's pretty good! @morrisonicpod or morrisonicpod at gmail
You know the drill, this one's kind of a mess. Don't listen if it doesn't help. @morrisonicpod or morrisonicpod at gmail.
Listen, if you want a real preview go to Morrisonic #130, it's still up. Otherwise, be forewarned that Pat does most of the talking this time.
@morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail.com
We're back in 2015 to recap a 4-1 Portland victory over Seattle! Then we're in 2020 to tell you Gaytheist has a new album! Then we go back to 2015 to preview a must tie game against LA if we have any chance of making the playoffs!!! Is your head spinning yet?
I accidentally deleted the theme song and the only copy is on a hard drive at the office. Stay safe everybody, take care of each other, those corporate ghouls don't care if you die. @morrisonicpod morrisonicpod at gmail.com
It's short, the audio is bad, it cuts out a couple of times. But it's free and you are locked inside. @morrisonicpod
KPTV is airing old games and the first one is the 2011 home opener against Chicago. If this brings you any happiness at all, great. If not, hey, I understand.
Listen, this is real and you should be taking precautions now. Sorry to be a bummer. Email morrisonicpod at gmail if you want to connect with BOG about Sarah for Mayor t shirts
