Summary

Hello! It’s the podcast that can sit cross-legged all day long. Today, Katie criticizes all of society on her way through Assassin's Creed: Shadows. Then USWNT forward Midge Purce [8:07] joins Casuals to talk about recovering from her ACL tear and how a return to the pitch could be IMMINENT, ponder whether the NWSL is too nice, tease the next season of Offseason, explain how the fight for equal pay is being misunderstood, declare her love of spicy fiction novels and shopping on Canal Street, reveal just how rowdy Harvard dorm parties really get, and reminisce about "old" kids TV shows. But not "Pepper Ann" old. That's OLD.
