  • Where’s Morgan?

    It’s amazing this podcast still exists. I used to listen back in the days of Morgan and Thomas McKenna who’s now with Geordie. Bring Morgan back for a one off episode.

  • Fine Line between thoughtful and reflexive crticism

    Look, I'm all for critical voices within US soccer. No one wants to listen to podcasters who simply cheerlead for the status quo. But I sometimes feel like these guys fall into the trap of spending too much time complaining for the sake of "sticking it to the man". I get it, negativity sells. But more balance would be welcome.

Has the soccer streaming bubble burst?
