A World Cup Starter Pack for People Who Don't Understand Soccer

About this episode

The World Cup party continues with a very special crossover. Julie Foudy and Abby Wambach are joined by Glennon Doyle and Amanda Doyle from We Can Do Hard Things for the ultimate World Cup starter pack. From offsides and yellow cards to why the World Cup feels like one giant global sleepover, Julie and Abby break down the beautiful game for anyone who is watching, pretending to understand, or fully emotionally invested. Plus, Abby and Julie react to the USMNT’s heartbreaking exit, talk through the grief of a tough World Cup loss, and explain why cheering for the men’s team also supports the women’s team thanks to U.S. Soccer’s equal pay agreement. It’s soccer, feelings, whiteboards, accountability, and just enough chaos to make this a true party.   Follow @welcometothepartyshow on: YouTube — @welcometothepartyshow Instagram — @welcometothepartyshow TikTok — @welcometothepartyshow Email — [email protected] Substack - https://welcometothepartyshow.substack.com   Keep the Party Going: Get more Glennon and Amanda on We Can Do Hard Things: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/we-can-do-hard-things/id1564530722   Thank you to our sponsors: -Ally’s got you covered.
