Sad Bois FC

Adnan Basic, John Carollo

Sad Bois FC was formed when three amateur/semi-pro soccer writers covering the Chicago Fire decided to join together and talk about how sad their favorite teams make them. RJ left to buy some milk a couple years back, but you can still join Adnan and Jiggly as they discuss the soccer that they care about. With a healthy mix of Bundesliga, MLS, and even J-League talk, this podcast is a free roam around the world of soccer.

The Lewandowski Problem

With a special guest, the Bois discuss the state of Korean soccer, what's going on with Lewandowski and the Chicago Fire, and Jiggly's (somewhat graphic) visit to the doctor.

A Chaotic World Cup Preview

After a first half filled with baseball and surprisingly high amount of theology, the Bois get into the World Cup. And while we're probably wrong, there's a chance that we have one of the wildest tournaments since 2002.

The Donut is in The Fridge

A normal episode. Adnan talks about how much he loves basketball. Jiggly talks about trans rights. And at the end of the day, we all hate the way FIFA works.

Too Many Johns

With a guest that's been a long time coming, the Bois are met with similar energy from John of MIR97. There's some basketball talk, football talk, and of course, lore. I mean, Chicago Fire talk.
