Hour 1 of Soccer Matters with Glenn Davis! Game on for 90 - are fans more interested in individuals players over team? Glenn touches on transfer market, new MLS Commissioner, + USMNT retaining Mauricio Pochettino, German Moores of the Houston Chronicle joins to talk World Cup + new Dynamo signing.
Major League Soccer has a new commissioner. Jason breaks down Larry Berg's path from LAFC ownership to the top of the league, what it means for the looming roster rule overhaul, and where Don Garber's twenty seven year run fits into it all. Then, Mauricio Pochettino is back for a second cycle with the U.S. men's national team, signed through the 2030 World Cup, and Jason lays out exactly what the expectations should be this time around. What's on Tap brings the four fall fixtures against Peru, Chile, Mexico, and Canada, and the 3-4-3 closes the show with Atlanta United's brutal collapse in Philadelphia, Georgia soccer's historic night coming to Sanford Stadium, and a lot of reasons to smile about where the game is in this country right now.
Rog is joined by former USMNT striker and host of the Dual Nats podcast on the Vamos Network Herc Gomez to react to Mauricio Pochettino inking a new deal to coach the USMNT through the 2030 World Cup. Rog and Herc break down why Pochettino chose to re-sign now, whether or not he will make it all the way to the 2030 World Cup, and which other candidates would make better (or worse) managers for the USMNT. Plus, why Folarin Balogun will benefit from Poch's extension, why Diego Luna won't, and who exactly will be in the squad as we head towards 2030.Check out our interview with Pellegrino Matarazzo here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4R2eOfowmgwSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Galen Clavio jumps on CrimsonCast for a shorter solo episode as Indiana football gets ready to open fall camp in Bloomington.The first half focuses on the preseason USA Today Coaches Poll, where defending national champion Indiana lands at No. 6 despite receiving the second-most first-place votes in the country. Galen talks through why the coaches poll should be treated carefully, why the result still says something about IU's national perception, and how the lingering skepticism around the Hoosiers may fit perfectly into Curt Cignetti's approach.Then the episode turns to breaking IU football news: Stephen Daley is returning to Indiana. Galen explains why Daley's comeback matters, how his 2025 breakout changed the Hoosiers' defense, and why adding him back into a front that already includes Tyrique Tucker, Mario Landino, Tobi Osunsanmi, Chiddi Obiazor, Josh Burnham, Joe Hjelle, and Daniel Ndukwe could give Indiana one of the deepest defensive fronts in the country.The final segment shifts away from Bloomington and into soccer, with Galen reacting to Mauricio Pochettino returning with the USMNT for the next World Cup cycle. He discusses why continuity matters, what Pochettino can do with a full four-year runway, and why the U.S. men's national team still needs a clearer identity to move beyond its old ceiling.
The FC crew are back and we return with the news of Pochettino extending his contract with the USMNT until 2030. Plus, the panel discusses some of the biggest transfer rumors including Vini Jr, Rodri, & Bruno G.

Jason is back with a new episode of The Best Soccer Show featuring two very different, but equally important, topics in American soccer. First, Jason hits on the news that a deal to bring back Mauricio Pochettino as head coach of the USMNT is almost across the line. Is bringing back Poch a good idea? Can he turn the switch and win the trophies that American soccer fans expect the USMNT to win? CAN HE RECRUIT DUAL NATIONALS??? Then, Arman Kafai of Footy Analytic Musings joins the show to dive into the possible changes coming to the MLS salary budget rules. We get really detailed here, including talking about how the salary budget changes might impact American players and the homegrown talent coming through MLS academies. And what about parity?

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.

Next, Angel City FC forward Riley Tiernan joins the podcast for a fun, wide-ranging interview.

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.
