We are trying something new this week by moving the results/recap/preview segment of the show out to a Medium article and then converting that into an episode using text to speech. We were finding that reading the results without much to say on air wasn't working for us, so this method hopefully will allow us to continue reporting on all of the matches happening in our region without taking up space in the main episode for those that aren't interested.

We're looking for feedback on how this first attempt goes so drop us a line on Twitter or via email at trisocpod@gmail.com!

WARNING: there are a handful of expletives that are beeped out.

Alternative title: we go on tangents that weren't planned and recorded the longest episode so far! What started as a light news week turned into a long winded frustrated conversation about what is happening with NISA. The back half of the episode we dive into our power rankings for FFL and recap the first weeks of match.

No interview this week! We're discussing the news, which includes telling people to cyber bully the new NCASA president, and then we get into a major topic of discussion recently: regional leagues. We get in to what one could look like for the Carolinas and some positives and negatives from the EPSL model. A lot of what we use in this proposal is based on Bill Marth's new book "Building an Amateur Soccer Network" and we recommend anyone interested in the concept of nonprofit regional leagues pick it up!

The final chapter of the NC Roundtable is here! First we have a special guest host Duane Arnold for the intro as Zack was unavailable. The audio is a little rough as we 1) had to record outside to minimize potential covid19 transmission and 2) Zac forgot to change the mic to the right setting.

Nevertheless we get into fan ownership, some NCSU talk and more in he first half. The second half the panel discusses supporter groups, the open cup, and what we think soccer in NC looks like in 10 years.
