We're going all heavy metal for this week's edition of the podcast. Bronze to be exact, as we're joined by three heroines of the Canadian women's Olympic football squad.
Karina LeBlanc, Sophie Schmidt and Emily Zurrer drop by to chat about London, becoming Olympic medalists, looking ahead to the next three years and what the reaction and reception the team has received means to the women's game in Canada.
And if that's not enough, Karina and Emily even serenade us and share their musical talents! It was just their little way of thanking us for providing the trough of popcorn we like to give all our guests!

We wanted to keep things positive, so there's no talk about Norwegian referees. Let's just focus on the plusses of the tournament and going forward.
We obviously needed to balance the good looking quota to the bad looking quota on the show, so joining us on that scary flip side is AFTN and Prost Amerika writer Steve Pandher.
Between us we pick over the bones of a horrible defeat for Vancouver Whitecaps against Dallas, look ahead to the Seattle game on Saturday and touch on the Indo-Canadian Summer Soccer Association non story that was making some big news this week.
