Dest Goes Down, Weston Does Italy, MLS Does Indy Eleven Dirty
After a short hiatus, the boys are back and better than ever to take on the big stories of the day in American soccer. First, there's the news that Sergino Dest did a knee and will miss Copa America. Who will Gregg Berhalter turn to at right back for the big summer tournament? Then the boys get into Weston McKennie's contract impasse with Juventus and the other...business...that Weston seems to be up to in the north of Italy. Listener discretion advised because that spirals into a discussion about soccer terms as sex positions. Get stuck in, you know what I mean? Finally, some MLS news hits the show, namely that Don Garber and MLS seem to have blown up Indy Eleven's stadium play in Indianapolis by talk to Indy's mayor. Did MLS do some dirty shit?

Messi and Miami Win MLS Opener, Open Cup In Trouble, MLS Predictions
Jason and Jared are back to take stock of Inter Miami's season-opening win over RSL and the two most important Lionel Messi highlights: Dapping up Will Smith at halftime on the way to the locker room and chipping/hurdling an injured RSL player to get off a shot. Then there's a passionate discussion about Major League Soccer's treatment of the US Open Cup and how money is driving every decision made in the world of soccer in 2024. If you want to play soccer business bingo, get out your cards! Then the boys do something very stupid and try to predict the MLS season. Jared goes a little homer, Jason bets on a perennial contender. Thanks to everyone who watches the show live and contributes.
