Episode Description
Friday is here and there is only one more sleep until MLS returns for 2026!
The nation's top tier league begins its final summer season this weekend with 15 games throughout Saturday and Sunday. Instead of breaking down what to expect on the pitch this season, MK examines where MLS stands in the overall American sporting scene. How mainstream is MLS and do we wish it was more center to American culture? Also, in lower league news, Jozy Altidore is getting involved in the OKC USL expansion project to add more star power to that ownership group.
We then welcome Corpus Christi FC head coach Eamon Zayed joins the show to shed some light on his club making the jump from amateur to pro as they are 22 days away from the start of their first season in USL League One.
Entrepreneur Brian York is trying to speed run building a USL expansion club for the state of Massachusetts. Is this a good idea? How quickly can you actually build a soccer team? Jason digs into this story and analyzes what it actually takes to start a whole new team.
