Cincy PostCast - An FC Cincinnati Podcast

Kevin and The Chief unpack the latest news from training this week with Evander picking up a knock. Where can the rest of us pick up knocks, and do they sell them by the dozen? Then it’s predicting the entire rest of the season and trying to figure out if it is enough to make the playoffs (it’s going to be close). Then in Part Two it’s a preview of the Atlanta United match on Saturday

Kevin, Grayson, and The Chief are here to answer the most pressing question on everyone’s mind: Pat Noonan vs Zac Taylor! Surely that’s what everyone is talking about right now. Then in Part Two it’s a brief, but fun, Patreon Question segment!

Kevin and The Chief would never leave you during the international break, unlike FC Cincinnati. With a documentary suggestion for The FC, visa updates, and more you’re caught up on the Orange and Blue. Then in Part Two it’s the triumphant return of In the 11, Out of the 18!

Kevin, Grayson, and The Chief are here with all of the player updates you need to fully understand just who is going to be missing this weekend. International Duty calls for what feels like half the team, who is left!? And whoever is left will be playing a bad Montreal team, but is there enough left in the tank to beat them? And is this a must win?

Kevin and Grayson are here with a very funny update to the PostCast bookclub, never in a million years would we have expected this. After a brief (45 minute?) conversation on books, reading, and audio books it’s a look at the Houston Dynamo match in which FC Cincinnati took a hard fought point, but should they have taken more?

Kevin is here to get you up to speed with all of the FC Cincinnati news that you may have missed from this past week. Miazga is officially gone from FC Cincinnati, so what’s next for the club? Youth development is on track in Cincy, as are national team call-ups. Then it’s a preview of the Houston Dynamo match this weekend, why is Kevin so optimistic? And finally, a reading of the first part of chapter one of The PostCast’s September book club book, a Confederacy of Dunces (this might not be legal, don’t tell anyone)<...

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief are still trying to make heads or tails out of what appeared to be a mostly great performance from The FC that only netted 1 point. Did the rotation unlock a new super power or was the team lucky to leave with a point? Then in Part Two it’s an update on the PostCast Bookclub and Listener Questions about Belgium, setting fire to buildings, and advice.

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief hit record as soon as the match was over in order to get you the freshest takes they make. FC Cincinnati gets done hard by the VAR, then there’s a PK (or three?) then VAR takes a goal off the board, then the VAR takes an FC Cincinnati goal off the board. Classic third team performance. In Part Two what looks like will be a preview of Charlotte turns into further conversation on Matt Miazga, Free Agents, and more. 

Timestamps:

(2:40) - FC Cincinnati Talk, Philly Match Commiseration 

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief do their best to get to the bottom of the decision behind Matt Miazga being bought out and sent packing from Cincinnati. Just, if you believe the scuttlebutt, that might not be all there is to the story? There is a free agent waiting to sign, probably, but is it all worth it? But not before first talking about the weather-cancelled match on Saturday. And then in Part Two it’s Philadelphia on the road.

(7:06) - FCC Talk

(1:47:46) - Philly Preview and Predictions

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief finally, finally have new signings to talk about! David Doudera and Julian Malatini join from Europe to reinforce the backline, is it enough to turn the season around? How do we rate the job of Albright at the close of the window? What if GMs did the opposite of what they think they should do? Part Two is a discussion on This Love is Not For Cowards, the first book in The Post’s bookclub about soccer supporters in Juarez back in 2010/2011. And in Part Three it’s predicting this weekend’s match vs DC Uni...

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief rip the bandage off and go right into the 4-0 loss to Nashville, a team that has surged past FC Cincinnati this season after dropping their Designated Player centerback. Are there lessons to be learned from this match and was it as bad as it seemed? Part Two is a look ahead to the future asking if no moves are made, why not? What's the plan and would it be better to be in fire-sale mode? Then in Part Three it's all about Patreon Questions including planning a meal, food fights, and yet another...

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief were there when an actual, honest-to-god transfer rumor showed up on X, the everything app, it's all happening on X. But wouldn't you know it, it wasn't a centerback. Is that ok? Then in Part Two it's Patreon questions including chips, firing Pat Noonan, and big questions about the universe. Finally in Part Three it's a look ahead to the away match vs Nashville where FC Cincinnati takes on the likely shield winners, so why are some of us so confident?

Timestamps:

(2:28) - FC Cincinnati Transfer Talk

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief work through the emotions of a poor result at the end of a transfer window that sure looks like FC Cincinnati is about to do nothing. Fireable offense? Who else around the league would you rather have leading the team? Then in Part Two it’s Patreon Questions including cafes, Jedis, and so much more.

Kevin and The Chief are here with all the FC Cincinnati news that's fit to print (into an MP3 and upload to the internet). The FC's dramatic win over NYCFC is giving major Lucho Acosta vibes, is that a good thing? Don't look now but Obi and Miazga are starting to look vintage, in a good way. Chris Albright is in the news and not because he signed a player, but because he himself was the target of a move. Seattle Sounders bring a historic losing streak to TQL Stadium, trap game or get right game?

Grayson and The Chief are once again picking up the slack for Kevin (though he did edit this one!) following FC Cincinnati's dramatic point on the road. VAR takes a penalty away, a missed handball on Orlando's goal, and a few other inconsistencies lead to a conversation, once again, about VAR and how referees are supposed to handle matches. The Cincinnati Open also gets plenty of air time as Chief and Grayson debate Golf vs Tennis. Then in Part Two, because this season has no chill after the World Cup, it's a preview of Wednesday's match vs NYCFC. 

Kevin and The Chief are here to help you through your feelings after the collapse late in Leagues Cup. Is this a Pat noonan coaching job gone-wrong or does the blame lay at the feet of the players? What happens if going for it too much backfires? And where is your bucket hat after another cup loss? Transfer Rumors abound for FC Cincinnati players, how real are they? Then in Part Two it's a look ahead to this weekend's match which features two terrible defenses and two incredible offenses.

We're back and fighting another round of lag and bad internet connections to deliver the FC Cincinnati faithful more of this stellar content they simply cannot do without!

Jonah from Knifey Lion radio turned down an opportunity to come out of retirement and co-host, so it's just Grayson and the Chief again on hosting duties. And, once again, they're talking about an FC Cincinnati victory with a 2-0 win over LigaMX big cats Pumas. Many people noting that the FC seems to play better when Kevin isn't on the show (not me, but many people nevertheless). A...

Kevin went on vacation for this episode and left the Chief to edit, so apologies in advance if this sounds like garbage. Please direct all complaints to @cincyle on X, the everything app it's all happening on X. 

It's a Grayson & Chief episode of the PostCast. Since the FC is winning, we don't really fight that much -- sorry to disappoint the sickos.

FC Cincinnati star goalkeeper and all around good guy Evan Louro joins the show to talk about the FC's massive 3-1 win over Pachuca in the League's Cup. We also break the m...

Kevin, Grayson, and Chief survived a rain-soaked prematch (kinda, not really) to witness The FC's best performance of the season. Bucha's return to the midfield, Brian Ramirez's best match (so far?), and Super Sub Tom Barlow's performances all under the microscope. Chief is held to account for his earliest Evander takes. Then in Part Two it's the launch of the PostCast bookclub! Patreon members will vote on which book we read each month, and at the end of the month the podcast will dedicate a segment to talking about the book. Sometimes soccer related, sometimes not, kinda like the...

Kevin, Grayson, and Chief are here to answer all of your questions about FC Cincinnati's transfers, or lack thereof. Who around the league would we like to add, any former FCC players we'd bring back, and why does Pat Noonan's teams always look the exact same? Then It's a Preview of the San Jose match which on paper ought to be a goal-fest.

Kevin, Grayson, and the Chief are here to help process some emotions after the 2-1 defeat of FC Cincinnati at the hands of the Columbus Crew. A match that started off a bright as matches come and ends in Columbus Crew players running down the tunnel after Dado Valenzuela at the final whistle. Are there any positives to take from this game? And is it as bad as it seems? Then in Part Two it's all listener questions, generally non-soccer related to help cleanse the pallet.

Kevin, Grayson, and Chief are here with an episode that is both about a fantastic win over the Western Conference leaders AND a Hell is Real preview! 4-3 victory over the Vancouver Whitecaps has FC Cincinnati BACK following the World Cup break. Bucha is a new man, Ender has a new role, and Denkey and Evander haven't lost a step. Just don't ask about the defense. Then in Part Two it's a look ahead to Hell is Real and why The FC and fans should be optimistic about Saturday.

Kevin, Grayson, and Chief are here and finally, finally, FC Cincinnati is too! Part One is all about getting us back into the swing of things with FC Cincinnati, and a great entry point if you're just getting into The FC. Then in Part Two Tyler Snipes stops by to talk about the FC Cincinnati season so far and what to expect in the second half of this season. Then it’s a match preview of the Vancouver Whitecaps! An epic battle between the Orange and Blue and the Western Conference’s Best.

Kevin and Grayson are here to emotionally unpack the transfer window for you. What does this team need to do, what did they say they would do, and how do we go about judging them for having done it all? The biggest areas of need for the team is certainly a hot topic. And what does The FC's run of form to end the first half of the season change when it comes to what's on the shopping list?

Kevin and Damon are here with an actual, honest-to-god, FC Cincinnati episode! Damon was on site (unlike you) for the Burnley friendly. Who stood out, who scored on their FC Cincinnati debut, and who didn't play in this match!? Then in Part Two it's a round up of a few FC Cincinnati rumors including, but not limited to, Kevin Denkey to Dortmund, Christian Pulisic to Cincinnati, and a new soccer team coming to the Queen City!?

Kevin, Grayson, and Chief are here with the answers to the US Men's National Team's problems. The US has problems, they have solutions (the seriousness of said solutions do vary, to be fair). After the USMNT talk it's on to actual FC Cincinnati conversations about the Burnley match. What to expect, why isn't anyone buying tickets, and what really is the point of these games?

Kevin and The Chief Hit record just after the insane news came down about Flo Balogun being made available for the USMNT match vs Belgium. But first it's a reminder that FC Cincinnati plays a match this week! Yes, you read that right! Is there anything to take away from the match? Then it's onto, what is probably, the biggest match in USMNT history. It's likely to be the most watched soccer game in US history, but what do we make of the insane decision from FIFA?

Kevin, Grayson, and Chief are here with actual FC Cincinnati news! Miles Robinson started at the World Cup, why are people mad? 2023 FC Cincinnati called and it wants its Rightback and Centerback, back. And a youngster for The FC, who is not so young anymore, may be headed out for good. Then in Part Two it’s a draft! A draft of the best conspiracy theories.

What is the timeline for players to show up, what's the plan for this mini pre-season, and what changes might we expect coming out of the break? We also talk World Cup with co-hosts Canada qualifying for the knockout rounds and Miles Robinson is, likely, to make his World Cup debut for the USMNT this week.

What a lot of people might not know is that the PostCast was really the first time Kevin, Grayson, and The Chief ever sat down and talked to each other. With the team still on break, here’s a chance to go back to the very first episode featuring a Jonah KLR minute and a preview of the 2022 season, Pat Noonan’s first in charge! How right, or how wrong, did we have the Pat Noonan era from the start? The PostCast will be back with normal programing on Sunday. The World’s GAM is all new this week talkin...

Kevin, Grayson, and The Chief are taking in any and every World Cup match on offer from the fine folks over at FIFA. Consider this sport: washed. Then it’s on to FC Cincinnati’s strikers and deciding if it’s still a position of need or has the Orange Blue found its groove. Then finally it’s Listener Questions in Part Three about concerts, local sports, and interesting things.
