We sit and digest the events of the FC St. Pauli tour of the United States with our friends and travelling companions author Nick Davidson, author of Pirates, Punks and Politics and East River Pirates supporters club member Shawn (AKA #femaleshawn). It’s still kind of surreal that it all happened...

Play The Kids 2018 

Episode 7 – FC St Pauli Special!

It’s Play The Kids! And what a wonderful episode we have for you this week.

With the upcoming FC St Pauli friendly at Providence Park, we bring you an episode dedicated to the clubs and culture of the Timbers and St Pauli. We were blessed to have Shawn and Samantha, the hosts of FCSP Podcast: Fell In Love With A Girl, along with author of Pirates, Punks & Politics, Nick Davidson.

Together the group discuss the clubs, culture, and a shared love of soccer. The Timbers and FC St Pauli have lots of similarities. It was fantastic to get to sit down and have a great discussion ahead of the friendly on Tuesday. Thank you to Shawn, Samantha, and Nick for joining us!
