FiftyFive.One Podcast

Zut Alors! The French have won the World Cup. Eric, Alex, and Wes recap the World Cup final and then dig into Minnesota United's fraught win over the Really Salt Lakes. Eric also impersonates Mike Petke, so trigger warning on that.

Minnesota doubled the Ibarra for double the fun!

Alex Schieferdecker returns from Europe to talk World Cup and MNUFC with Rodrigo and Wes. The three walk through the last week of craziness that included a hat trick of genius from Darwin Quintero.

World Cup Fever has not yet abated and Rodrigo, Wes, and Eric talk about the craziness of Japan v Belgium and France v Argentina. They also talk about the historic announcement from Collin Martin, announcing that he is the only openly gay man actively playing in the big US sports. Then there was that Dallas loss, which didn't quite feel as bad as other losses.

The fever has not broken. Wes, Rodrigo, and Eric talk about their favorites: Germany v Sweden, Serbia v Switzerland, and all the other craziness. Minnesota United FC played twice this week and, well, it wasn't great, but the guys power through the pain.

the World Cup has kicked off an it's been fantastic so far. So fantastic that Wes' former du Nord Futbol Show co-host Bruce McGuire joined Wes and Rodrigo to talk about the surprises and disappointments so far this week in the World Cup.

It's the World Cup. Do you have the fever? The only cure is more World Cup. So Eric, Rodrigo, and Wes give their predictions for the World Cup.

Wes went down to Kansas City to lose his voice and watch the Loons get another spanking in KC. Some traditions are too important to break. Eric and Rodrigo join the podcast so that Rodrigo can talk and talk about Peru. Have you heard that Peru is going to the World Cup?

JEEEEEEEEEEEZ. Oh and they take twitter questions.

It won't go down in the top 5 for the long history of Montreal Impact meltdowns, but Minnesota yet again had the Montreal Meltdowns' number. Rodrigo, Wes, and Alex talk about the Minnesota win, Coventry City's first promotion in 5 decades, and the US Youngins beating the Bolivian C team.

It's the fantastic four back again. Alex takes a break from his run on the trivia circuit to rejoin Rodrigo, Eric, and Wes. The four talk about the draw against the Sporks. They also talk about the weird story of Sporting Lisbon and other global news stories.

Eric, Wes, and Rodrigo are back to talk about the craziness in the world of soccer. The USMNT is coming to Minnesota! Duluth in the Open Cup! And then they talk about Minnesota United losing twice in a week. Ugh. I'm gonna need a drink for this.
