WE BACK, YEAH WE BACK

It's a packed episode, as since we've last convened, Nashville SC have secured a 0-0 draw against Minnesota United (10/6), suffered a depressing 1-2 defeat at Sporting Kansas City (10/11), and earned perhaps our most important result of the season, a 3-1 win at Houston Dynamo (10/14). We had to bring back Daniel the Dawg to help us make sense of it all. Items covered include:

• The return of fans to Nissan Stadium
• New options in midfield
• High praise for Tah Brian Anunga
• Derrick Jones' and Randall Leal's new hair
• Brayan Beckeles' UNACCEPTABLE hazing practices
• We continue to threaten from set pieces, with Invader Zim scoring another towering header
• Johnston's red card
• Big love for the gaffer - but what will it take for Donald to fully let Gary Smith into his heart?
• Has Hany fully silenced the h8ers?
• What will the championship parade route look like?

...all this and more, including our Three Chalupas of the Week, the return of Ad Reads, News, European Roundup, and Listener Qs.

Happy Birthday, Teddy, this pod's for you.
