Wes talks to former Minnesota Stars Captain Kyle Altman who led the NSC Minnesota Stars to the 2011 championship and then the final in 2012 before retiring to become a doctor.

It's a return of the regular podcast! Rodrigo, Corey, Mark, and Wes discuss the potential return of Bundesliga, whether MLS with no fans is worth it, and well literally anything that comes to mind.

Wes calls up the all-time leading goalscorer in the modern era of Minnesotan soccer, Christian Ramirez to talk about staying sane in the quarantine, his time in Minnesota, and his moves to LAFC and Houston Dynamo.

Wes called up former Minnesota United player Eric Miller to talk about his life under the quarantine and ending up at Nashville SC for their inaugural MLS season.

In the midst of the quarantine, Wes caught up with a fan favorite, former Minnesota United fullback Jerome Thiesson. They talked about his time in Minnesota, including having his first child in the US, and caught up on his time since returning to Switzerland.

There is no soccer, so Rodrigo, Wes, Corey, Mark, and Eric all assemble to talk about whatever the hell comes to mind. They do at some point address the English Premier League's idea to do a mini tournament to finish the season and its implications for MLS but let's be honest, this is stir crazy cabin fever on tape.

Things are heating up! It's a quarantine special as Rodrigo, Alex, Mark, Corey, and Wes all call in through a shitty app and try to keep each other company. They talk soccer, sure, but honestly, we're all still alive and that's something.

Wes and Rodrigo are joined by #IsaWatch to talk about the 5-2 drubbing of San Jose at the hands of Minnesota United.

Mark, Rodrigo, and Wes assemble to talk about the first Minnesota United match of the season, a big win over Portland. They discuss their newly formed radical Chaconista junta as well as To Lod or Not To Lod.
