    Who partners Pulisic? | Coaching in MLS vs. Europe | Can Messi be stopped? (Soccer 11/25)
    Nov 25 2025
    Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Marcelo Balboa are back to unpack a jam-packed weekend on both sides of the Atlantic. After missing the USMNT’s November friendlies, Christian Pulisic returned in style, delivering the winning goal in the Milan derby (07:31). The guys debate a big question facing Mauricio Pochettino: Who’s the ideal partner for Pulisic in a dual No. 10 setup: Gio Reyna or Malik Tillman (10:15)? The crew digs into the coaching carousel. With Wilfried Nancy emerging as a leading candidate for the Celtic job, can he translate his success with Columbus Crew to one of Europe’s most pressure-packed environments (23:55)? And does LAFC have the right succession for life after Steve Cherundolo (29:17)? The guys tip their cap to USL champions Pittsburgh Riverhounds (44:55). Then it’s on to the MLS Cup Playoffs: after gutsy semifinal performances from San Diego, Vancouver, and NYCFC, the question remains: can anyone stop Lionel Messi and Inter Miami (48:11)?

    “Regular players”? Poch isn't having it | USMNT roster locks | Chaos in Concacaf qualifiers (Soccer 11/20)
    Nov 20 2025
    Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Marcelo Balboa tie a bow on the USMNT’s dominant international break, and shoot down suggestions that beating Paraguay and Uruguay truly qualify as “signature” wins (02:54). Mauricio Pochettino pushes back on questions about his “regular starters,” so should the likes of Christian Pulisic and Tyler Adams be worried (15:06)? Marcelo is put on the hot seat to reveal his roster locks for the 2026 World Cup (26:58). The guys dig into what missing the March camp could signal for players (41:43), recap the drama and heartbreak from Concacaf’s qualifying finale (47:46), and look ahead to four mouth-watering MLS Conference Semifinal matchups as the playoffs heat up (55:55).

    Freeman & Berhalter shine in BIG win for Poch's boys | USMNT vs. Uruguay recap & reaction (Soccer 10/18)
    Nov 19 2025
    What did we just witness?! The USMNT close out 2025 with a signature win with a 5-1 demolition of Marcelo Bielsa's Uruguay. Jimmy Conrad is joined by Jonathan Bornstein and Tab Ramos to break down every angle of a wild night in Tampa. The guys dig into Mauricio Pochettino’s heavily rotated lineup and how MLS standouts Sebastian Berhalter, Alex Freeman, and Diego Luna powered the U.S. to a stunning 4-0 lead. They assess the cultural shift under Poch, spotlight top individual performances, and react to Tab’s declaration that Gio Reyna is a lock. Plus: why didn’t Ricardo Pepi see the field, what should the minimum expectations be for 2026, and which players deserve the closest watch ahead of the March friendlies?
