In arguably the most tragic L Pod in Lobbing Scorchers history, we unfortunately recap Seattle’s latest defeat to LAFC, this time 1-0 in the US Open Cup semifinals. Was it a penalty kick? Was Jordan Morris offside? We weigh in on the controversy at Starfire.

Later on we hit our Agenda Check, take your questions and preview Seattle’s upcoming Cascadia rivalry matchup at the Portland Timbers.

The Seattle Sounders didn’t play but that didn’t stop us from laying down some more coverage of Leagues Cup 2024. We react to the latest slate of group-stage matches, which included some more positive results for MLS clubs over Liga MX, with an unlikely hero emerging in the form of Austin FC.

Elsewhere, Dayne St. Clair went God mode again for Minnesota United, LAFC took a comedic defeat to the Vancouver Whitecaps and the Columbus Crew traded for a player that we realized mid-pod could have been a great pickup for the Seattle Sounders. We also touch on Sounders season ticket renewal pricing and the debacle it has started.

We are back on track with a Dub Pod as the Seattle Sounders opened their Leagues Cup 2024 campaign with a 2-0 victory over Minnesota United at Lumen Field on Friday night. It wasn’t the best game we’ve ever seen, but Paul Rothrock has done it once again, giving us more than enough content to fuel our agendas.

Later on in the show we discuss US Soccer playing hardball regarding Jordan Morris’s potential call-up to the US Olympic team, a heroic PK save from former Sounder Stefan Cleveland and one of the best MLS coach quotes of the season from Charlotte FC’s Dean Smith.

The streak of Dub Pods has sadly come to an unceremonious end as the Seattle Sounders were blown out 3-0 by LAFC at Lumen Field on Saturday, falling victim to the evil demonic goal-scoring force of nature that is Denis Bouanga. Were the national pundits correct in their prior assessment of Seattle’s improved play of recent weeks being fraudulent? We debate exactly that and more in our game review and Agenda Check.

Later on we take your questions, hit on a couple news items regarding Leagues Cup and the US Open Cup, then discuss winners and losers from around MLS in Matchday 28.
