The Union's rocketing success rate continues unabated and the AMPU crew is wondering if, in fact, we've crossed into a parallel universe where the Union are an unstoppable force.  Join Paul, C, and E this week as they praise Danley's continued excellence on the field, revel in the backyard soccer antics of the Sullivan brothers, and celebrate the cathartic torrent of Damiani goals.  Like all Union fans, to paraphrase from the great 80's TV show, we find ourselves leaping from game to game, striving to put right what once went wrong and hoping each time that our next win will be the win home.

The turnaround continues this week, both for the Union and the atmosphere at the AMPU studios.  Join Paul, C, and E as they praise NYRB for their gracious hosting, consider how Cavan Sullivan is neither Freddy Adu nor Jamie Tart, and employ cricket statistics to analyze the trajectory of the Union's remaining season.  Also, C wins the movie reference game with both a LOTR and a Star Wars reference.

Always shoot first.

Six undefeated games into Season 2.0 and things get surprisingly somber this week at the AMPU studios.  Join Paul, C, and E as they take encouragement from the ever-improving Union defense, take stock of the team's fleeting time with Cavan, and take an unflinching look at the cold hard truth of the Union's remaining season.  Then C gives an Oscar-worthy rallying speech to provide the perspective we all need.

Dolly and Tim ❤️❤️❤️

We strictly adhere to the First Rule this week as the entire crew returns to the AMPU studios after some end-of-the-summer-galivanting. Join a well-rested Paul, C, and E as they jump on the rollercoaster that was the past five games as they admit their okay-ness with the Union's bow out of Leagues Cup, celebrate Damiani's goal scoring catharsis, and cheer on the fully Philly melee that was the Miami game.

And that retro jersey: sublime.

The number three is unmistakably omnipresent this week at the AMPU studios: 1) The Union score three goals in their match against Atlanta United, 2) The Union win their third game in a row, and 3) Paul is back and the AMPU crew returns in full tri-fold force!  Join Paul, C, and E as they disapprove of Atlanta's on-field character (and Hoyos's haircut), celebrate Alladoh's first MLS goal, worry about Damiani's Dark Night of the Soul, and congratulate the power trio of Wagner, Pierre, and Iloski.

Happy 150th!

After two consecutive wins, we're keeping our steps baby-sized around the AMPU studios.  C and E fly duo again this week as they try to answer the pressing questions: Is this momentum the Union seem to have real?  Are Atlanta having their own Season 2.0?  Is Damiani the Union's Severus Snape?

Keep it cool, Philly.

Season 2.0 is officially underway for the Union while it's more Summer 2.0 at the AMPU studios, as episodes are being posted behind schedule.  But with the conclusion of many summer sporting events and the reset of the Union's season, the AMPU studios is getting back on schedule...very soon!  But in the meantime, join C and E from last Thursday as the flew "duo", as they give their final thoughts on the final matches of the World Cup, celebrate the game-changing returns of Kai and Quinn, welcome the staggering potential of Neil Pierre, and attempt to keep their surging optimism for the second half of the season in check.

In the immortal words of Dave Leno...

To borrow from Gandalf the Grey: "A podcast is never late, nor is it early, it arrives precisely when it means to."  Well, maybe it's a little late.  All this World Cup excitement (and other summer fun) has put the AMPU studios behind schedule.  But fortunately the AMPU crew has a motto: the sooner we get behind, the sooner we can get caught up.  Join Paul, C, and E this week (well, last week, really) as they discuss the pending conclusion of this truly remarkable World Cup and the even greater result that no Union fan saw coming: the return of Kai Wagner.

Let's go Union Season 2.0!

It's hard to believe that it's only been 28 days since the start of the World Cup.  And yet at the same time, it feels like there's been nothing else in life other than this World Cup. All we know here at the AMPU studios is that we can't get enough and we don't want it to end.  Join Paul, C, and E this week as they look to the Union's Season 2.0, marvel at the Churchillian defense England mustered against Mexico, and reveal that E was the actual cause of the US getting knocked out of the World Cup.

May we all aspire, in our own way, to be like Cabo Verde: Small but mighty.

Country Roads and La Marseillaise have been on heavy rotation this week at the AMPU Studios as the World Cup good vibes continue to reverberate around the country.  Join Paul, C, and E as they discuss the Union Reset, Paul's experience as a FIFA volunteer at matches, the benefits of the longest rain delay in World Cup history, and that we're going to have to "trust the process" if we're going to "take Pochettino home...

....to the place, where [we] belong." (See, E did work it into the episode description!)
