We swear we are working on the sound. Jake promises that it will get better with each episode if Juan Andres stops coming to the attic to mess with his settings.

There's actually a ridiculous amount of stuff to talk about in this one. Jake went to the Academy matches Saturday and we're excited to be able to watch these teams play through the winter. If you haven't been, go -- and do it soon. The teams are fun to watch and are ridiculously good. We talk a bunch about both teams and some of the players to keep eyes on when you go.

We spend most of this one talking through our end of season grades for the Keepers and Defenders. This is part one of our Off-Season Extravaganza and we'll be working our way through each group of players in separate episodes. Hot takes abound in this one and we'd like to hear what you have to say about our grades. They're all over the place if we're honest.

Happy listening!
