Major League Journeymen is the new podcast from current and former Major League Soccer players Dax McCarty, Alan Gordon, and Dan Gargan.Â
The Major League Journeymen podcast is a must-listen for any fan of MLS and soccer in the United States. Hosted by Dax McCarty, Garg's, and Gordo, this podcast offers a great mix of informative soccer talks and lighthearted banter. It is evident that Dax is the star of the show, with his knowledge and passion for the sport shining through in every episode. The chemistry between the hosts is undeniable, making for an enjoyable listening experience.
One of the best aspects of The Major League Journeymen podcast is the insightful discussions about MLS and soccer as a whole in the United States. Dax, being a seasoned professional player himself, brings a unique perspective to each episode. He provides insider insights into various aspects of the game, including tactics, player development, and team dynamics. Additionally, the hosts are not afraid to delve into controversial topics surrounding MLS and offer their honest opinions. This adds depth and authenticity to their conversations.
Another standout aspect of this podcast is the lighthearted banter between the hosts.

Gordo's infectious giggles add a touch of humor to each episode. The combination of informative discussions and jokes creates an engaging atmosphere that keeps listeners entertained throughout.
However, one possible downside to The Major League Journeymen podcast is that it may cater primarily to die-hard MLS fans or "MLS sickos," as they put it. While this makes it an excellent choice for those deeply invested in American soccer, it may not appeal as much to casual fans or those more interested in international football. Additionally, some listeners may find certain episodes or topics less compelling if they do not have prior knowledge or interest in MLS.
In conclusion, The Major League Journeymen podcast is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for in-depth discussions about MLS and soccer in the United States. Dax McCarty's expertise and passion shine through, making him a standout host. The chemistry between the hosts and the blend of informative talks and lighthearted banter create an enjoyable listening experience. Whether you are an MLS die-hard or simply interested in American soccer, this podcast is worth giving a listen. Plus, getting to be a fan of Dax since his "rookie season" in broadcasting adds an exciting element for those who believe in his future success in soccer media.
