The LA Galaxy will get their 12th bite, this time of the Big Apple, when they travel east to face off against their 2024 MLS Cup rival, the NY Red Bulls on Saturday, May 10. With LA looking for their first win of the season, and New York in the bottom half of the table, this will be a different match than MLS Cup. Both teams are still trying to find their groove, and both need a win, although the Galaxy are desperate for one. We'll look at what the Galaxy can do to turn their performances into three points, and how they can exploit the sudden downturn in form by the Red Bulls. With fresh injuries to account for, will LA be able to put together a performance worthy of their first three points? Special Guest Andrew B. from The Designated Players Podcast

In this insightful episode, we spoke with Shaun Oliver, the current Vice President of Operations at Sports Illustrated Stadium (formerly Red Bull Arena). Shaun detailed how he began working part-time for the New England Revolution just as MLS was getting off the ground, which quickly led to him becoming the Director of Operations at the newly rebranded New York Red Bulls.We spoke with Shaun about his unique journey to where he is today, sharing funny stories from the early days of MLS, highlighting the professionalism Red Bull brought to the league, and diving into the specifics of keeping an aging stadium modern for the best fan experience.The insights we gained—from the evolution of MLS to the nitty-gritty operational changes between international and league matches—were eye-opening, to say the least.If you're a fan of MLS or simply curious about how a premier soccer stadium operates in the United States, this is an episode you won't want to miss.Now Live on Youtube, Spotify, Apple and everywhere else.#OffThePitch • #SoccerBusinessPodcast ----------------------------------------------------Subscribe on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@PodcastOffthePitch/Follow Off the Pitch on Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/podcastoffthepitch/Follow Off the Pitch on TikTok:http://www.tiktok.com/@podcastoffthepitchFollow Shaun Oliver on LinkedIn:https://www.linkedin.com/in/shaun-oliver-5531264/Follow Matt Cunningham on social:https://www.linkedin.com/in/mattcghm/Follow David Kinnear on social:https://www.linkedin.com/in/dkinnear/

A special one hour episode with our friends News Across the Galaxy, to give our final thoughts, feelings and emotion the night before MLS Cup 2024 between the Los Angeles Galaxy and New York Red Bull on Saturday, December 6th at Dignity Health Sports Park.

Kate Wolf and Medaya Ocher are joined by the editorial director of the New York Review of Books and the founder of the NYRB classic series, Edwin Frank, to discuss his first work of nonfiction, the book, Stranger than Fiction: Lives of the Twentieth Century Novel. Taking the novel as the preeminent art form of the last century, Frank's book charts its winding path of development, beginning with Fyodor Dostoevskey's Notes from the Underground, published in 1864, and ending with W.G. Sebald's Austerlitz which arrived more than a 100 years later. Along the way, Frank looks at the many different forms and categories great 20th century novels take, from the distinctly modern and popular science fiction of H.G. Wells to the “minorness” of Franz Kafka; the historical precision of Thomas Mann to Gerturde Stein's stress on sentence itself, and James Joyce's stress on words. The book connects an eclectic collection of authors by way of style, sensibility, reception, temporality, and perhaps most importantly the influence of cataclysmic world events on their work and the shaping of their work on the world.

Now the MLS Playoffs really begin! Dave Denholm and Mario Ruiz react as a chance to close-out the Whitecaps slips away from LAFC in Game 2. What is the biggest concern for LAFC in Friday's do or die match at BMO Stadium? We will have a new MLS Cup Champ after the Crew are swept out of the Playoffs by NYRB. Plus, can Atlanta United pull off the biggest upset in MLS Cup Playoffs history and knockout Inter Miami?
*EDITORS NOTE* Unfortunately, due to a technical error, this podcast posted later than anticipated (i.e. after the MLS Decision Day occurred. We apologize in advance for some of the parts that are out of date). This week on the podcast, Bone and Beam discussed, among other things, the Crew's playoff opportunities, playing NYRB multiple times, and Cucho Hernandez possibly being on the move this offseason. What price would it take for you to bid Cucho a fond farewell? And, the USMNT got a couple of games under their belt with Mauricio Pochettino at the helm. The result was a mixed bag, to say the least. Thanks for listening!
