- What am I paying for?
This guy take my money and produces no content. What a sorry excuse for podcast. Especially his racism and how he doesn’t care about the Latinx population.

Good analysis and the hosts all have great chemistry. I like the deep cuts and takes they have that are way ahead other pods on US soccer mgmt and player pool. I appreciate analysis that isnt rooted in hot takes and trying to be “first” that wankers like Lalas and Gomez relish. Bone dry humor and the bants are stellar, too. Also, the Bob Bradley episode in Aug ‘26 was truly excellent. It was two hours and I could have listened to it much much longer.
Apple Podcasts5MachmedUnited Statesa month ago - Vince is goated
For me this podcast is primarily about what Vince brings to the table. Well, he is not a soccer expert. He does admit that and I think his perspective and antics are genuinely entertaining. I enjoy the guest that they are able to get on the show.

I subscribed to a bunch of soccer podcasts in the lead up to World Cup 2026 and now that it’s over, this is the only one I won’t unsubscribe to. I particularly like the match breakdowns after each game, and will count on this podcast to keep me in touch until soccer begins again in 2030.

Found yall after first group stage match when i couldn’t get any meaningful analysis from mainstream media. Been a USMNT fan for several decades, but admittedly just a hair above the casual fan. Kept tuning in to make sure i wasnt crazy when i was getting pounded by hot takes from super casual fans in my inner circle. Great analysis and interesting shows. Not a discord kinda fan, but if yall give me a way to donate to just the extra podcasts i am in even though usmnt is out. Questioning why Puli... more
