- SUBSCRIBE TO OUR PODCAST: http://cornerofthegalaxy.com/subscribe/  - COG LA GALAXY DISCORD: https://discord.gg/drr9HFZY2P - COG ANTHEM MUSIC BY RAY PLAZA: https://linktr.ee/munditoplaza - COG ANTHEM MUSIC DOWNLOAD: https://open.spotify.com/artist/3asiasldwKyoCRm1Vzx2h7?si=_LmXI9otT9y9j0ChMGMt2w COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy left Northern California with a point, but it still felt like a missed opportunity. A 1-1 draw against the San Jose Earthquakes featured flashes of promise, another strong performance from Marco Reus, a breakthrough goal from Joseph Paintsil, and a dramatic penalty save from JT Marcinkowski in the final moments to preserve the result. But despite the resilient finish, the Galaxy slipped to 11th place in the Western Conference and continue searching for the consistency needed to climb back into the playoff race. On this episode of Corner of the Galaxy, Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter discuss whether the point gained in the Cali Clásico is something the Galaxy can build upon or simply another example of a team struggling to capitalize on its chances. They also examine Joseph Paintsil's finishing, Harbor Miller's continued emergence, the pressure surrounding Greg Vanney, and why the Galaxy's home form has become their biggest obstacle. The show also dives into Dylan Vanney's loan to Real Betis, the latest on Kyogo Furuhashi's arrival, the Galaxy's remaining transfer plans before the September 2 deadline, and why another impact signing may still be necessary if the club hopes to make a serious playoff push. Can the Galaxy finally build momentum, or are they running out of time?

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros return to process the full-force return of Major League Soccer following the World Cup break. Christian kicks off the show with a hilarious and relatable personal story about taking his 3.5-year-old son to his first competitive soccer class 1v1s. The hosts then dive into the latest blockbusters across MLS, analyzing Casemiro's 1-0 debut for Inter Miami as a physical midfield anchor, Antoine Griezmann's immediate scoring spark for Orlando City, and Christian's in-person breakdown of Robert Lewandowski's debut for the Chicago Fire against NYCFC. Next, Angel City FC forward Riley Tiernan joins the podcast for a fun, wide-ranging interview. The NWSL sophomore shares her journey from an unsigned trialist to team top scorer, explaining how getting passed over initially fueled her "dog" mentality on the pitch. Riley also details her commitment to Rutgers in 8th grade, breaks down her viral Flying Dutchman order at In-N-Out, discusses her U.S. U-23 national team call-up, and reacts to a viral post-match meme. To close out the episode, Christian and Alexis inject a heavy dose of "hopamine" as they turn their focus toward rebuilding the USMNT for 2030. The hosts highlight six rising American youth prospects who could transform the national team's core—including Philadelphia Union's Cavan Sullivan and 6'6" center back Neil Pierre, dual-national defender Noahkai Banks, Orlando's Justin Ellis, RSL playmaker Zavier Gozo, and Chelsea goalkeeper Gaga Slonina.

After a disappointing 3-1 loss to St. Louis City SC, the Galaxy head into another rivalry match short-handed, short on confidence, and searching for answers. Injuries, suspensions, and inconsistent performances have left Greg Vanney with few options as the playoff race begins to tighten. On this episode of Corner of the Galaxy, Josh Guesman and Sophie Nicolaou break down what went wrong against St. Louis, discuss why the midfield continues to struggle, and debate whether the current roster has enough to stay competitive until reinforcements arrive. The conversation also dives into the signing of Kyogo Furuhashi, what he could bring to the Galaxy attack once his visa is approved, the latest discussion surrounding the Casemiro investigation, and whether the front office has more moves planned before the transfer window closes -- they do. With fan frustration growing and pressure mounting on Vanney, is help coming soon enough to rescue the Galaxy's season?

Fresh off their 11-city Breakaway Tour, Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros return to the studio to process the post-World Cup soccer landscape. Christian kicks off the episode with an unbelievable travel horror story about a chaotic flight delay from Miami to Dallas involving an intoxicated passenger, an unruly accusation, and an emergency flight attendant swap. The hosts then dive into a blueprint for the future, detailing radical ways to overhaul US Soccer and turn the USMNT into legitimate contenders for the 2030 World Cup—from ending pay-to-play under Arsène Wenger and merging CONCACAF with CONMEBOL to creating a 50-state "States Cup" tournament. Next, the guys welcome USMNT midfielder Tyler Adams for an exclusive, wide-ranging interview. Tyler breaks his silence on the team's World Cup exit against Belgium, setting the record straight on what really went down in camp when Folarin Balogun's red card suspension was rescinded 20 hours before kickoff. He reflects on Mauricio Pochettino's front-foot tactical philosophy, reveals why Pochettino declaring he "wished he was American" after singing Country Roads was his favorite team memory, and details his ongoing community mini-pitch initiative with Allstate. Finally, the hosts analyze the summer transfer window frenzy and critique the latest kit drops across world football. They break down major moves including Morgan Rogers' £117M transfer to Chelsea, Anthony Gordon joining Barcelona, Robert Lewandowski signing with the Chicago Fire, and Casemiro's move to Inter Miami amid LA Galaxy discovery-rights drama. They close out the show with a look at Manchester City and Real Madrid's roster overhauls, Sebastian Berhalter's transfer to Middlesbrough, and a fashion breakdown of the best and worst jerseys of the season.   Timestamps: (00:00) — Post-Tour Return & Christian's Wild Flight Delay Story (12:29) — 10 Ways to Fix the USMNT & Win the 2030 World Cup (41:46) — Tyler Adams Exclusive: Balogun Red Card Drama, Poch's Impact & Belgium Defeat (51:49) — Blockbuster Transfers: Morgan Rogers to Chelsea & Anthony Gordon to Barça (01:01:41) — MLS Transfer Chaos: Casemiro, Lewandowski & Sebastian Berhalter (01:13:20) — European Giants Overhaul: Man City's Rebuild & Real Madrid's Free Transfers (01:20:26) — Kit Reviews: Best & Worst Jersey Drops of the Season Subscribe to The Cooligans on your favorite podcast app:

Following a disappointing 3-0 defeat in El Tráfico, the Galaxy suddenly find themselves facing difficult questions about their roster, their attack, their playoff hopes, and whether time is beginning to run out for Greg Vanney.  On this episode of Corner of the Galaxy, Josh Guesman is joined by LA Times soccer reporter Kevin Baxter to examine what happened at Dignity Health Sports Park—and why the performance may have revealed much deeper issues than a single rivalry loss. Are the Galaxy simply shorthanded after the departure of Gabriel Pec? Or are there structural problems that can't be solved until the transfer window delivers reinforcements? The discussion dives into the lack of attacking depth, the pressure now facing Will Kuntz and the front office, and why every match before the Leagues Cup break could determine whether the Galaxy remain in the playoff race -- or begin planning for 2027.  The show also explores: - Why the Galaxy's offense has stalled since Gabriel Pec's departure - Whether Robert Taylor can provide immediate help - Greg Vanney's tactical options with a depleted roster - The latest transfer speculation and Designated Player outlook - Why Maya Yoshida's return and other injured players may not be enough - How MLS missed a massive opportunity following the 2026 FIFA World Cup - The importance of Wednesday's matchup with St. Louis City SC and why it already feels like a must-win.  Josh and Kevin also tackle one of the biggest questions surrounding the club: If help isn't arriving immediately, how does this team survive the next month? It's an honest conversation about the Galaxy's current reality—what can be fixed, what can't, and whether the organization still has enough time to rescue a season that appears to be slipping away.  If you're wondering whether the Galaxy are still capable of making a playoff push, whether Greg Vanney is coaching for his future, or what moves could reshape this roster before the transfer window closes, this episode has the insight you're looking for.

The Seattle Sounders are coming off arguably the worst performance in club history, and for an occasion this unprecedented, we're devoting the entire show to processing the fallout. After entering the World Cup break at 7-3-3, Seattle returned to a 5-1 annihilation by the Portland Timbers in front of more than 35,000 fans at Lumen Field. On this episode we'll break down every angle of the historic collapse. Was it an inexplicable outlier or an x-ray of deeper problems? How much responsibility belongs to Brian Schmetzer and Craig Waibel, and what does the result say about Seattle's roster construction, ownership spending and veteran leadership? We'll also examine Jordan Morris' complicated DP situation, the decision to send Snyder Brunell and Paul Rothrock to face the media, and where the Sounders go from here.Follow Lobbing Scorchers: YouTube Instagram Bluesky TikTok Facebook Ari Liljenwall Noah Riffe Niko MorenoSPONSORSQED Coffee - a Seattle based roaster, coffee shop and coffee subscription service.

For the Glory KC is back with the 187th episode of the show!Sporting Kansas City returned to action in Major League Soccer after a seven-week break and it didn't go great. They were on the road, for some reason playing a rivalry game midweek, against St. Louis City SC. They fell behind 2-0 before tying it up and giving up a penalty late to lose it.We break down the biggest moments from the game, if there was progress and of course, we have to talk about the questionable officiating. At least games are close enough for the officials to influence for a change?In other Sporting KC news, David Lee gave a press conference last week where he touched on a wide range of subjects. He didn't want to speak about any player specifically (Mo Salah, Andre Luiz, Yann Gboho, etc.). But he did talk about how the budget has changed and they are chasing big fees and big salaries. The team is targeting two to four more signings, including one more defender and the rest being focused in the attack. Plus, the team made a couple trades this week that will facilitate a future move.In KC Current news, their perfect home record evaporated in the 90th minute against the San Diego Wave. I quickly break down the game as Sheena's best friend was in town and they did not watch. Plus, Debinha signs a new deal, Temwa Chawinga is going to miss a bunch of games and Desiree Scott is bringing an expansion team to Canadian women's soccer.And for one last week, "we're a World Cup podcast."

The World Cup is nearing its denouement, which means that Major League Soccer is reigniting their engines. (Maybe that's just adding to the poor air quality around here lately.) FC Cincinnati's first opponent after the long break? Vancouver Whitecaps FC, the head honchos of the Western Conference. The Caps got a surprising reprieve on Thursday after their match with Chicago was put on hold due to the environment. However, that just means the squad gets extra rest before Wednesday's matchup. To know more about our opponent, we talk with soccer commentator and reporter Michael McColl from the "Away From The Numbers" podcast and website. Michael gives us a better look at how Jesper Sørensen has prepared his club for the long run. Considering what the state of Ohio had gone through, perhaps he can also shine a brighter light on the #SaveTheCaps campaign as well.

On this episode of Corner of the Galaxy, Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira break down everything surrounding Friday night's showdown with LAFC, including why this edition of El Tráfico could set the tone for the remainder of the Galaxy's 2026 campaign. The guys dive into the arrival of Finnish winger Robert Taylor, discussing where he fits into Greg Vanney's plans, whether the signing is being misunderstood by supporters, and why the veteran could end up playing a much larger role than many expect. They also explain why Maya Yoshida's new green card may be one of the biggest roster moves the Galaxy have made all season, potentially saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in international roster costs while creating valuable flexibility for the summer transfer window. Speaking of transfers... The conversation explores the latest Designated Player rumors, the search for attacking reinforcements, why the Galaxy's biggest signings may still be ahead, and how MLS roster rules continue to shape every move Will Kuntz makes behind the scenes.

On Jacobin Radio, the team behind the People's Game podcast continue their unique coverage of the 2026 World Cup, analyzing the men's football games on the field as well as the political, social and economic subtexts of the world's most popular sporting event. Guest hosts Alan Minsky and Meleiza Figueroa are joined by Laurent Dubois, a professor of history at the University of Virginia. Laurent has two bodies of work of equal importance to the People's Game: one on the history and culture of the Atlantic world, focusing on the Caribbean, Haiti, North America, and France, the second on fútbol, with a focus on the game in Africa, France, and the African diaspora. Laurent sings the praises of the French national team, who remain the favorites to win the tournament, celebrates a strong showing by Haiti, marvels at the brilliance of African diasporic players on countless teams, and explains why African soccer has developed so spectacularly in recent decades. Then we're joined by Hartzell Gray, a DSA- and PDA-endorsed candidate for Congress and Missouri's 4th District. Until recently, Hartzell was the voice of Kansas City's Major League Soccer team. He shares his thoughts about late capitalism's greatest spectacle coming to his hometown — including the harrowing ICE raids across the Kansas City metropolitan area that coincided with the tournament. Jacobin Radio with Suzi Weissman features conversations with leading thinkers and activists, with a focus on labor, the economy, and protest movements.
