We are back with Episode 138, and we’re honored to welcome U.S. Men’s National Team legend and Hall of Famer Clint Dempsey to the show!

The USMNT are out of Copa América, and we talk to Deuce about what happened to the team and what led to the abrupt exit. We get his take on whether Gregg Berhalter needs to be removed as head coach, and his response is simple: whatever happens, it needs to happen now.

Deuce has many comments on what the team needs to do in order to get better, including playing better competition, getting our players in situations where they are on the field consistently for their clubs, and what players he thinks has the same qualities he possessed on the field. It’s a great interview that you don’t want to miss!

Dempsey also discusses his work with DraftKings, where he currently has a promotion for the Copa America and Euro 2024 semifinals. We end with what he hopes people take from his enduring legacy on the field as the theme of his success story.
