Hello!This week, we have back on our World Cup and War Correspondent Patrick Hultgren to talk about sportswashing, why the USMNT hasn't traditionally captured the public's imagination, at least when compared to the women's team, youth soccer in America and what Landon Donovan said, and the politics of patriotism about a sport we claim we don't care about all that much in the States. This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit goodbye.substack.com/subscribe

The World Cup is in full swing, and if you're watching, you know – the intensity and stakes are unlike anything else in sports.  So it's the perfect time to sit down with Landon Donovan, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest American soccer players of all time. But after a disappointing performance in the 2006 World Cup, he nearly walked away from the sport entirely.  That crisis taught him a powerful leadership lesson: you can't make your job your whole identity. And that insight – alongside some therapy – gave him the freedom to be his best, both on the field and off it.  The lines between our professional and personal identities can get blurry, especially for leaders. If you make your job your whole identity, it can lead to burnout, fear of failure, or worse.  Landon's candor and fresh perspective can show you a different way.  This episode is for you if: You've questioned your own self-worth after a professional disappointment You've struggled with burnout (or coached someone who has) You want to create more accountability in your company culture You avoid conflict when it arises You love sports, especially soccer, or just appreciate a good story Take your learning further.

Hour 2 opens with discussion around Brendan Sorsby's decision to enter the NFL Supplemental Draft, with Joe calling it the right move while the guys debate which teams could take a chance on him, including the Cowboys and Dolphins. The conversation centers on whether Sorsby is worth the risk despite alleged off-field concerns, including gambling issues, and if he can be viewed as a low-risk, high-reward prospect or more of a potential distraction that NFL teams may want to avoid. The guys also touch on the Dolphins releasing Kion Smith and broader roster turnover, along with comparisons to past league situations involving players with similar controversies. The hour wraps with a lively edition of Hollywood's Headlines, featuring the fallout from the Knicks' championship celebration, viral social media moments involving OG Anunoby and Mikal Bridges, massive World Cup advertising revenue during hydration breaks, and former USMNT star Landon Donovan calling out United Airlines over a travel dispute.

In today's edition of Hollywood's Headlines, the guys react to the wild aftermath of the Knicks' championship celebration, including viral moments involving OG Anunoby appearing impaired on Good Morning America and Mikal Bridges going live on Instagram with shocking comments about the team's postseason rules and a reportedly chaotic locker room culture under James Dolan's ownership. The conversation also highlights how likable this Knicks roster was during their title run despite the off-court buzz. From there, the focus shifts to the business side of the World Cup, where hydration breaks have turned into massive advertising opportunities, with FOX reportedly charging hundreds of thousands per 30-second spots and generating hundreds of millions in ad revenue. The segment wraps with former USMNT star Landon Donovan calling out United Airlines over a frustrating travel experience, sparking a public back-and-forth after the airline responded asking him to take the issue offline.

For years, Landon Donovan—the face of U.S. soccer and one of the most decorated players in the sport's history—was defined by what he did on the field. In this conversation with Ryan, he shares the story behind his new book, Landon: A Memoir, and what it took to finally tell the truth about his life off the pitch. He reflects on the pressure of carrying expectations, the complicated relationship with his father, and the quiet struggles that existed alongside a historic career. They talk about why opening up about mental health was the hardest part of writing the book, and how his definition of success has shifted from achievement to impact. Donovan also looks ahead to what matters now, from fatherhood to his mission to reshape youth sports in America.

Newly retired, future Hall of Famer Lavonte David will be here. And the most decorated player in U.S. soccer history, Landon Donovan, will be here to preview the World Cup as we draw closer and closer.

What if success doesn't give you what you thought it would? In this conversation, I sit down with soccer legend Landon Donovan—the face of American soccer—to unpack the hidden cost of success and why achieving at the highest level can still leave you feeling empty. By every measure, he made it. And yet behind the accolades, he was quietly struggling. We talk about the childhood wound that fueled his drive, the identity trap so many high performers fall into, and the moment everything unraveled after the 2006 World Cup. If you're someone who keeps chasing more but still feels like it's not enough, this episode will give you a new framework for pursuing success without losing yourself.

You're listening to American Ground Radio with Louis R. Avallone and Stephen Parr. This is the full show for November 20, 2025. 0:30 We are sounding the alarm because six Democratic members of Congress put out a video telling U.S. service members they can “refuse illegal orders.” That may sound fine on this surface, but this video isn’t about law at all. It’s about planting the idea that orders from President Trump himself are somehow optional. We break down what the Constitution says about following the president's orders and how this video is just another attempt to delegitimize President Trump. 9:30 Plus, we cover the Top 3 Things You Need to Know. According to data released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the US Economy added 119,000 jobs in September. The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals has put a halt to a new California law that would have required companies all across the country to post on their website all of their carbon emissions. Democrat Congresswoman Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick has been indicted for campaign finance fraud. 12:30 Get Prodovite Plus from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 13:30 The discussion of the "refuse illegal orders" video continues, and we're calling out the Democrats' hypocrisy. The Democrats want to label January 6th an “insurrection,” but that label is far more fitting for the video that these six Democratic lawmakers put out. And isn't funny that these lawmakers never identify any supposed unlawful orders? This isn't harmless political theater. 16:00 The American Mamas tackle a difficult listener question: When a couple divorces, should they tell the kids if infidelity was involved? Teri Netterville and Kimberly Burleson explore different perspectives on honesty, timing, protecting children, and how to handle complicated situations when emotions are high. The conversation highlights how every family’s circumstances are different — and why compassion and careful communication matter. If you'd like to ask our American Mamas a question, go to our website, AmericanGroundRadio.com/mamas and click on the Ask the Mamas button. 23:00 We react to Senator Bernie Moreno's claim that "the American dream is dead." While the last four years under Biden were undeniably brutal for working families, America’s promise isn’t gone—just bruised by bad policy. 25:30 We Dig Deep into a jaw-dropping investigation out of Minnesota that traces massive state-funded fraud back to the wave of Somali refugees resettled during the Obama administration. We walk listeners through explosive reporting from City Journal showing how tens of millions—eventually hundreds of millions—of taxpayer dollars from housing and autism-related programs were siphoned off through fake clients, fake services, and kickback schemes run predominantly by individuals tied to the Somali refugee community in Minneapolis. The numbers are staggering: programs that were supposed to cost a couple million ballooning to over $100 million… autism funding exploding from $3 million to $399 million… and remittances being funneled overseas at such scale that U.S. Somali residents send more money abroad than Somalia’s entire national budget. And the part that stops everyone in their tracks? DOJ tracing significant chunks of that money straight into the accounts of terrorist group Al-Shabaab—leading to the chilling conclusion that Minnesota taxpayers have become the largest funders of Al-Shabaab. 32:00 Get TrimROX from Victory Nutrition International for 20% off. Go to vni.life/agr and use the promo code AGR20. 33:00 We break down how, throughout history, communist regimes have always feared religion—not because prayer is dangerous, but because faith gives people something the state can’t tolerate: hope, identity, and loyalty that doesn’t flow through government power. It's no coincidence that Zoran Mamdani said that no issue is too small for the government to meddle in. The lefts wants the government to become like God. 35:30 Plus, Thanksgiving dinner is actually getting cheaper this year, and that's a Bright Spot. We break down the newest numbers from the American Farm Bureau and talk about what the drop in costs says about affordability, the economy, and why it’s a bright spot worth celebrating. 40:00 We dive into Megan Rapinoe’s latest comments on transgender athletes in women’s sports—and, yes, her unexpected comparison involving Landon Donovan’s hairline. According to Rapinoe, men in women's supports is comparable to a coach wearing a hearpiece. Her argument has us saying, "Whoa."
