Cornfed Coaching
Cornfed Coaching is not your average soccer talk podcast. With one transplant Iowan and another born and raised, Jack Andrews and Jon Choda converse over the youth soccer landscape through banter, insight and experience (but mostly banter). The hosts will be joined by fellow soccer coaches and influencers from all around to keep the conversations fresh and lively. You'll get a kick out of this one.
