Omg I have missed Mal. She is so chill and humble. Truly one of the best fowards ever. Sammy your a first class podcaster and love your style!! Tower of power !!
I love these episodes, you have a natural ability to put people at ease and it translates into really good interviews. Have you considered creating an app to have a centralized place to put all the content? I think it would be great to have an app we can go to for the tv schedules and the newsletter articles.
We're making sure the foundation of content is great and we are delivering what you want, and then slowly building on it. You can find us on all platforms for full women's game coverage @womensgameMiB
Hearing Mal speak about her leadership drive on the field was interesting. Before her injury, her play was incredible, an absolute joy to watch, but having been watching her from her first game with the USWNT, it was also obvious that she had come into her own as an important leader on the field. You could see it in the way she was interacting with her teammates during games. I think, in a way, losing that driving leadership--lead by example--presence on the pitch was as hard on us as it was to lose her attacking skills. I'm so excited to see her back both with her club and the USWNT. Stay well and stay great, Mal!
Thank you for putting together an easy reference for the when/where/how to watch the games. I subscribe to three streaming services just to watch women play and I still feel like I’m constantly missing games I didn’t know about. Much appreciated!!! BTW you’re killing these interviews! I can’t wait for Thursdays now!
Worst timing ever. I've watched since before she came along and her first few years were wonky; she was immature. But in spring of '23 heading into the World Cup, she had jumped to a supreme level. She had it going on!
Another wonderful interview Sam! So glad your back with the insight. Loved seeing Mal doing well and on the mend. She’s absolutely still one of the most feared forwards in the world! Class act. Injuries really hobbled us in recent years but, we are going to come back with a vengeance w/ Emma at the helm. Fun times ahead
So happy Mal is coming back and glad she is recovering well wishing you both the very best! I also know what it’s like to go through an injury I’m currently dealing with one right now and I really wanna get back to training for fun at my house!
thank you for this episode sam!!! mal has always been such an inspiration to me since i was young. her first comeback from major injury had such a big hand in helping me come back from a terrible injury that i thought was going to be the end of my sports career. her story is one that really helped me through everything and really helped me get my confidence back, and now i'm playing better than i have in my entire life. we love you mal!
Hello from Washington DC 👋🏻 I grew up in suburban Chicago and Lou Malnati’s is the best IMO. They’ve been around, owned by the Malnati family, since the 1950’s. So good. Sam, it’s great to see your preparation for your interviews be so strong. You have tons of info at hand and share it in a casual, engaging way. It is so fun to see two friends have a genuine conversation and talk about meaningful, hilarious, smart and current things in women’s ⚽️. Thanks for all you and your team does Sam!
Mallory was the most impactful injury-absence from the World Cup. She is a consistent finisher, and fast enough to beat defenders without being constantly offside like the older forwards. We could not score goals, and Mallory would have changed that.
Fantastic interview Sam. Can't wait to see Mallory back on the pitch! Any chance we could see an interview with Sarah Gordon? She's such a fun player to watch play.
SAM I WANNA TALK TO YOU SO BAD. You and mal and sonnet and of course Trinty Rodman are all my favs I love watching all the game happy Valentine’s Day guys!
I enjoyed this interview. I love these injury recovery stories. I have torn my ACL twice and now I'm injuries again. It's hard as a regular person cause I have to pay for physio so I only go once a week and it's along edit to see a surgeon in Canada. Hoping I don't need surgery again. This podcast really brings the athletes close to fans. I'm loving all the you tube highlights and prime games on Friday nights. So excited about women's professional soccer all over the world. I'm hooked. Soccer is all I want to watch now
Sam I absolutely love your podcasting style! I feel like I am listening to a friend chat about my favourite things!! Such an interesting chat with Mal and you asked such great questions always showing such amazing support to everyone. Love it!!!
11:45 That's the same injury that Ronaldo (the Brazilian legend) suffered back in 2000. His patellar tendon basically snapped in half, and his patella (kneecap) went all the way up to his quad, and he was out for around 17 months.
I wish I could see your face, Sam, when she's talking about getting injured. I think we should all do our reaction videos of it. Cause my face I'm sure is hilarious. I am shaken by that description. good lord.
*Mallory's injury was heart-stopping for most fans of the USWNT. I knew, at that point, that the team was done for the World Cup because the whole strategy was centered around Mallory. Mallory is the best player in the NWSL and deserves every single penny she is being paid. Hope she completely recovers soon.*
Sammy Bananas. You might be better at a podcaster than a soccer player. Ok, unlikely, but I find your casual and funny conversations amazing. Do good things, soccer girl!
How to watch games: you are correct. It's now very difficult. The past two years I watched every game (including the Challenge Cups games games last year). I could do this because all games were on Paramount+, which kept full match replays. I could watch 1 or 2 games a day as my schedule allowed. Now it's much more difficult. In fact it's not clear that the Prime games can be watched except live, so I may have to miss some of them. Bummer. Congrats on your show. I'll miss you on the pitch, but I'll see you on RUclips.
The schedule and where to watch!!!! Thank you!! It’s so damn annoying. I can find men’s soccer from Europe every Saturday…but not my NWSL!! 😠. And I would love to watch WSL! No clue where to catch those games. Love this podcast!
Old guy Here Awesome ! Podcast Can't wait for everyone in the future ! I'm gonna recommend to everyone I Know! Mal's always been my Favorite since she came on the scene Sorry all the rest but she's my #1 can't wat for the next content Much needed !! GO SAM !!!! :)
Wow! Malory, your knee cap got pushed up to your thigh, oh Lord! I’m so sorry to see you went thru that predicament! I still remember the moment you went down and crying for the excruciating pain. I already knew it’s not going to be pretty that you Mal have to go thru. 😔😔😔🌹💖 But we’re all so glad you are better now, Malory! 😍. Congratulations on new contract with the Red Stars. I think Malory Swanson is FASTEST RUNNER and the most Dynamic scorer in the USWNT. Her presence in the pitch is so anticipated for good things to happen. Not only scoring but how she scores is itself another dimension of excitement!!! I can say Maria Sanchez is not even close if not dull to compare to Swanson!!! I hope the dash will not be disappointed with the entitlement of $$$$$ for Sanchez . I can’t wait to see you back in the pitch Mal Swanson. Best wishes in your recovery my dear!!!👍⚽️🌹💖🇺🇸
sammy mewy truly IS a national treasure. she literally apparently excels at everything she does, incl. broadcasting. thank goodness MIB has secured her services. she has an outstanding future ahead of her, off (sadly, for us fans) the soccer field.
Can't wait for Mal to be back!! IMO, the world cup team was lacking Mal, Tobin and Press. Those 3 are difference makers and not having them was a huge blow
Mal, Sam, Macario, and Sauerbrunn were expected as, or would have been starters at 2023 World Cup. Lavelle was nicked up... and others. I'm not making excuses but, that's a half of a team of experienced leadership that went missing.
I like watching any uswnt coverage because I have a daughter that plays and loves to watch them play. you do a good job at that but I think you go to deep into feelings and emotions and this and that. If you had more concentrated coverage I would enjoy more. Also most all of yall say I feel like to much lol. It drives me crazy. Just some constructive criticism from a random !!!!
I really like Mal....she seems so real, genuine, down-to-earth. Dansby really knocked it out of the park (pun intended) when he married her. Can't wait to see Mal back on the soccer field again
Bring Christian press. I just want to know if she is joining the USA women's team or not. What a great player she is, and Mal, you will be ok. God bless you❤
How do you feel about all the “backlash” Lindsey is getting for out of context quotes from the podcast? I hope this doesn’t make future guests paranoid from speaking freely.
Hmm I've watched alot of women interviewers, I think Sam is the best so far. Better than the rest at this. This should be a great show, basically the attacking third before they got bought out and eww...

LYSM, Sam! I can’t explain how excited I am to see Mal back on the pitch for club and country, she is such a fun player to watch
OMG the schedule and where to watch I might cry ❤

GREAT interview! Loved seeing Mal and Sam. Let’s go Red Stars!
I’m crying right now watching this incredible episode let goo Mallory the world miss you 😍😍😢😢
We love you, Sammy Bananny! Thanks for all you do for the game!
Most times athletes go through so much and we don't even know, so shocking hearing about the infection. Happy to see Mal back love her so much
That is what we want to do here - Connect you to the human behind these elite athletes. Thanks for watching Alexia!

Another good one,Sam! Nice to hear Mal is on the road to getting back into her game. If not the Gold Cup then the Olympics hopefully!
So happy to see Mal!! Amped to see her back on the pitch!
Gotta hate injuries, but glad she was able to recover!
Worst timing ever.

My goodness what poor Mal had to go through with that injury! So glad she's back and playing with such freedom and joy in the Olympics!
So happy Mal is coming back and glad she is recovering
well wishing you both the very best! I also know what it’s like to go through an injury I’m currently dealing with one right now and I really wanna get back to training for fun at my house!

Are you a Washington spirt fan?
@@Washingtonspiritfan Definitely 💯 I can’t wait for the season to start. Thanks for asking. What NSWL team or teams do you follow?
We all love watching this video it is incredible to see 😍😍😍

We def missed her at the World Cup Paul!
Love this new pod for you!
Fantastic interview Sam. Can't wait to see Mallory back on the pitch! Any chance we could see an interview with Sarah Gordon? She's such a fun player to watch play.
We've got a long list of guests coming up and some more shows to add... stay tuned!

It's so great to hear Mal is training and almost ready to be back on (both) the USWNT and the Red Stars.
How sorely she's been missed.
centralized schedule please! 🔥⚽
it's cooking 👩🍳

Love this podcast Sam! You're a natural ✨ and you get the scoop 👏
Im loving these interviews!
How can we email you? Love the pod so much! You are an inspiration to us all Sam
Great interview. Sam and Mal are both icons
The schedule graphic would be amazing. The struggle every week to find where to watch the womens games is so annoying!! Thank you, Women’s Game!!!
Love that idea of the weekly graphic. I'm a huge NWSL fan and USWNT - would love to expand to the european game!!

Great episode!!!
Late to this but in case no one mentioned, Pequod’s is among the best deep dish in Chicago!
sammy mewy truly IS a national treasure. she literally apparently excels at everything she does, incl. broadcasting. thank goodness MIB has secured her services. she has an outstanding future ahead of her, off (sadly, for us fans) the soccer field.
Love the idea of tv schedule for NWSL!
We all miss you Mallory 😢😢😢
The world misses Mal!! Can't wait to see her back on the pitch this season.
kind of odd Mal is 25 now. life flys by..
It really does... thanks for watching!
Can't wait for Mal to be back!! IMO, the world cup team was lacking Mal, Tobin and Press. Those 3 are difference makers and not having them was a huge blow
One of my favorite Mal goals was when Pinoe was next to the goal and started cheering before Mal even shot it because she just KNEW Mal would get it.
Another W episode

@@WomensGameMiB ❤️❤️❤️
Mal, Sam, Macario, and Sauerbrunn were expected as, or would have been starters at 2023 World Cup.
Lavelle was nicked up... and others.
I'm not making excuses but, that's a half of a team of experienced leadership that went missing.
I really think that losing Mal was the main reason for the US not winning the world cup. She was undoubtedly our best and most dangerous player.
I like watching any uswnt coverage because I have a daughter that plays and loves to watch them play. you do a good job at that but I think you go to deep into feelings and emotions and this and that. If you had more concentrated coverage I would enjoy more. Also most all of yall say I feel like to much lol. It drives me crazy. Just some constructive criticism from a random !!!!
We love you Sammy!
I really like Mal....she seems so real, genuine, down-to-earth. Dansby really knocked it out of the park (pun intended) when he married her. Can't wait to see Mal back on the soccer field again
*It's going to be hard to find a player like Sam Mewis. Her stature and personality on the pitch will be difficult to replace.*
I am here from the future, Mal will have a great Olympics tournament.
Love you mal
Mal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
S-teir for Mallory 😢😢😢🎉🎉🎉
Bring Christian press. I just want to know if she is joining the USA women's team or not. What a great player she is, and Mal, you will be ok. God bless you❤
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Someone tell mal to go to Pequod’s pizza!! Soooo good best deep dish 🍕
alyssa naeher next !!
Will you also follow the USL? Spokane is getting both men's and women's teams this year. Please don't just focus on the NWSL and Europe.
How do you feel about all the “backlash” Lindsey is getting for out of context quotes from the podcast? I hope this doesn’t make future guests paranoid from speaking freely.
😁
Hmm I've watched alot of women interviewers, I think Sam is the best so far. Better than the rest at this. This should be a great show, basically the attacking third before they got bought out and eww...
"Go ask Alyssa." 😂 Honest self-perception is always important.
Giordano’s pizza!
