On today's episode I sit down with professional baller, Karim Tmimi who's story takes him from growing up in Europe to seeking higher educational opportunities in the United States all the way to scoring his first professional goal for Atlanta United.  Karim's outlook on the culture of the game in America is very unique, juxtaposing his experience playing in French academies to his current life as a pro in Atlanta, Georgia.
