About
From Pitch to Puget Sound is a limited-run podcast built for the 2026 soccer summer in the Seattle region—made for visitors, locals, and anyone who wants to experience the season like a true Pacific Northwest fan. Hosted by Kyle (soccer + history) and Emily (civic clarity + practical planning), each episode blends two things: what you need to know to enjoy match season from Snohomish County—and the real Washington soccer story, with a special focus on the people, places, and moments that shaped the game close to home. From where to stay and how to get around, to supporter culture, watch parties, and the deep roots of soccer in Snohomish County, this series is your friendly, on-the-ground guide to soccer’s biggest summer—plus the local history that proves this region didn’t just get picked to host. It earned it. Disclaimer: From Pitch to Puget Sound is an independent production and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or officially connected to FIFA or the FIFA World Cup.
