Former USMNT John Harkes joins the podcast to have a conversation with Glenn about the national team. Rolling a long, they get into a conversation over the state of the game, MLS, commercialism, & much more. 

The regular season is over. Despite Orlando City giving everyone a participation trophy on Decision Day and the hosts having a bit more to play for in the season's final game — a retiring legendary captain and a new coach at the helm — the Lions prevailed 2-0 over Toronto FC on the strength of a fully caffeinated cup of Duncan's finest. Rookie Duncan McGuire came off the bench and played like he'd bought BMO Field that morning. Former USMNT captain and now-former Toronto FC captain Michael Bradley was the unfortunate player who will forever be enshrined in the highlight for one of Orlando City's most excellent goals of the 2023 season. That man has a family, Duncan! We broke down the Lions' win in Canada and make our unsurprisingly unanimous picks for Man of the Match. After our recap, we dove into a good-sized mailbagbox that wanted to know things about Josef Martinez, MLS transfer mechanisms, most and least impressive Lions in 2023, and more. Remember, if there's anything — and we do mean anything — you want us to address on the show, just ask us by tweeting it to us at @TheManeLand with the hashtag #AskTMLPC. Finally, we looked ahead briefly at Orlando City's prize for finishing second in the entire league — a best-of-three date with defensively stingy Nashville SC. Here's how No. 384 went down: 0:15 – Orlando continues to run on Duncan. In this case...roughshod over Toronto FC. 26:22 – The mailbagbox has a variety of questions, including that one about Josef Martinez. 49:50 — A quick look at Orlando City's playoff schedule against Nashville and how in the world did the Lions end up second and facing such a difficult first-round opponent?

Ahead of the highly anticipated clash between Mexico and the United States in the Concacaf Nations League, World Soccer Talk's Kyle Fansler chats with three headline members of CBS's Concacaf coverage. Former USMNT players Clint Dempsey, Charlie Davies and Maurice Edu are all part of the analysis on CBS's platforms during the Nations League Finals. The coverage of the game is also available on CBS's networks, with the 'Continental Clasico' available on Paramount+.In this interview, Davies, Dempsey and Edu talk about the ever-changing USMNT. Davies and Edu worked with interim head coach in BJ Callaghan during their time in MLS. So, they can provide an inside look on what was a surprising hire. Also, Dempsey talks about Folarin Balogun. Dempsey is arguably the USMNT's greatest forward of all time, and he is joint-top of the all-time goalscoring record. Dempsey gives his take on the importance for Balogun to get off to a strong start in the stars and stripes.Finally, all three provide insight on what it is like to work with CBS. The constantly growing platform is gaining serious praise for its coverage of both club and international soccer. Dempsey is, relatively speaking, the newest to this job as a pundit. Davies and Edu, on the other hand, know what makes CBS special, and they provide those answers. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
