608 Soccer Show (formerly Talkin' Flock)

Today, Rob talks to the man in the middle for Forward Madison FC, the most thoughtful man in cleats, the philosopher footballer, Andrew Wheeler-Omiunu! We get into the "good-ish" feeling of being technically undefeated, the importance of collective bargaining, Andrew's work with the United Black Players of the USL, the whole music-in-the-locker-room situation and lots more.  -- Follow us on T...

Rob's flying solo this week to lament another 0-0 draw for Forward Madison, and muse aloud about how this 0-0 draw is different from the last 0-0 draw. Also, we look ahead to the make-or-break month of June, when we'll have seven games in the span of 28 days, and maybe reminisce a bit about more exciting times. -- Follow us on Twitter @TalkinFlock and Rob at @RobChappell365

If you were watching Saturday's game on ESPN+, you heard the name Martinez a lot. On the podcast today, hard-working midfielder Isidro "Chelo" Martinez joins us to talk about growing up as a footballer on the border, his role on this club, adapting to the weather and lots more.

Andrew Schmidt of New Dogma Zine is in the co-hosting chair today as he and host Rob Chappell go over that thrilling 0-0 draw against Charlotte. We speculate on how calm is too calm for a goalkeeper, where Aiden Mesias will land when Jayden Onen returns, just how good Chelo Martinez is and more. Content warning: there is also a mention of nuts, in a men's health kinda way. -- Follow us on Twitter...

Jayden Onen might be Forward Madison's breakout player in the early going of the 2023 campaign. In this special interview episode, he talks with Rob Chappell and Kyle Carr about the monster game he had Saturday, getting sent off and getting settled in.

We are basking in the glory of a massive win! Kyle Carr joins Rob Chappell to talk through the massive 4-1 win, the weirdness that led up to penalty-save-to-counter-attack goal, the absurdity of the red card given to Jayden Onen, Rob's kids' weirdly large feet, and much more.  -- Keep up with Rob's work covering all things Madison at Madison365.com Follow Kyle on Twitter @Kylecoche
