ACES Radio

This is definitely the worst episode of ACES Radio ever. Seriously. Our recording bot jacked the audio up, and we repaired it as best we could. It sounds like a junior high AV club spliced it together while on a Mountain Dew bender. There's a lad check-in, recap of Crew vs. Nashville, talk of underdogs, YOUR questions of the week, score predictions, and Sean and Bront trying to cheat the predictio...

It's a special PLAYOFF EDITION OF ACES RADIO! After a lad check-in involving turkeys and bubbles and the crap that is Charlie Brown Thanksgiving, the lads discuss Columbus Crew vs. Red Bull New York Red Bull. MLS playoffs are awesome and if you don't agree, you're wrong. We read YOUR questions of the week and talk about what Thanksgiving food Josh Williams is. Crew vs. Nashville, breaking covid ne...

The Columbus Crew regular season is over, much like Drabby's lifespan. After check-in, the lads discuss the season finale against Atlanta United, including what a jerkface Escobar is. The lads also award their regular season MVP, Defender of the Year, and Kirk Urso Heart Awards. They answer YOUR questions of the week, including what Crew player would be their lawn boy. (HINT: It isn't Josh William...

Well well well. If it isn't another Crew win-that-looked-like-a-loss followed by a loss-that-should-have-been-a-win. The lads check in... Bront talks about working the polls (not the poles), John talks about good beer, Drabby talks about playing Among Us. The lads recap games vs. DOOP and Orlando, the death of Crew defense, being winless on the road, and Caleb Porter's empty trophy case. They answ...

OMGWTFBBQ Columbus Crew?! The lads check in, so we can hear about Bront watching Bar Rescue and John living it. Drabby talks about bird webinars because of course. The lads refuse to recap the last two games, but talk about all the garbage soccer played. They discuss current events with the Crew and league, and read ALL OF YOUR QUESTIONS OF THE WEEK. They're like hot takes, except mercifully short...

Greetings, Bezlords. Another episode of ACES Radio, wherein: John gets that sweet PAM money, Bront pretends to be an independent voter, and Drabby rakes leaves. No seriously, we talk about this. The lads recap Crew vs. NYCFCSC and talk about how well everyone but Pedro played. We talk Supporter Shield nonsense, whether we'd attend MLS Cup, and Mensah getting PAID. Previews of Houston and DC, the w...

Oh boy. We get to talk about Crew vs. FCC. Yay. Can't wait. BUT FIRST. A lad check-in where John and Drabby dodge walnuts and Bront is almost ready to start using his arm for... whatever it is he does with it. We ramble about a bunch of junk related to the game, Jaap Stam sucks, and we hope we get to see Bouba Keita again some day but probably not 'cause Caleb Porter. Man balls are awarded, predic...

Hello, Crew nation! This description will be infinitely more exciting than the games against Dallas and Montreal, which the lads will discuss!

Prediction scores, prediction updates, Man Balls,...

What a week. In lad check-in, John took care of a baby, Bront hurt his wrist masturbating, and Drabby may or may not have eaten 12-hour-old fast food. The lads discuss Crew vs. MNUFC, Bront justifies Kei Kamara sucking, and we have to acknowledge Pedro isn't terrible. Bront something something horse in the morning.  What's next in the schedule for Columbus? Why is there a kit consultant? What's Dr...

They discuss Crew vs. Fire, talk more about injuries that Porter ever does, and prepare for Phase II. Man Balls are awarded, g...

We're sorry. We tried, but despite our best efforts (#rest), MORGAN HUGHES returned to curse us with his presence. Oh, and I guess he brought PETE MCGINTY as a special guest. He's the guy who wrote the book about John and Drabby saving the Crew, and we got him before any other podcast. Suck it, MR. Also, I guess Crew vs. Fusslads recap, man balls, prediction scores and updates, preview the game vs...

They also talk abou...

Regardless, John, Bront, and Drabs check in... the panel discusses Bront's new career as a mask-licker. No, seriously. John reveals that he hates all Crew players and wouldn't buy their jerseys. No, seriously. Drabby thanks you, the person reading this, on the show. No, seriously.  These are all a...
