This week is a coach-heavy episode. With three announced in the past week (to add to the one previously announced), we can start to get an idea of how clubs are starting build their on-field product. We talk at length about Tommy Wheeldon Jr. (Cavalry FC), Rob Gale (Valour FC), Stephen Hart (HFX Wanderers FC) and Jeff Paulus (FC Edmonton). In this conversation we examine how each fits into the local and national football scene, what are their strengths and what questions we have as each jumps into their roles.

This week we are joined by FC Edmonton GM Jay Ball. This is the first of a two part podcast that focuses on the June 8 announcement of FCE joining the Canadian Premier League from Jay's perspective. We also go back to November 24 (Black Friday) where the club made the announcement that it was withdrawing from the NASL, and the journey they took in reviving the club and getting to the CPL.

This week is a very special episode for us as we talk about the FC Edmonton launch and crest new reveal. We break down our experience with the launch, including our march down Whyte Ave and the being front and centre for the announcement itself. We also break down our thoughts on the crest, including elements that work, and some that don't. And of course, we share a bit of the experience in the past six months that brought us to that special night.

This weeks episode is another special one where we react to the announcement of a new club, and this week we share our thoughts on Winnipeg's Valour FC. As per usual, we look at all the crest and all the design elements within it, as well as the colours, stadium and everything else we can think of.

Oh, and WE'RE GOING TO THE CPL! We look at the teaser video the league released on Tuesday saying Edmonton is approved by the CPL. Since these teasers give some insight into the identity and branding of the clubs, we look at what is focused on in the video and how it can relate to the club. We also share the YEG4CPL plans to pregame and march to the announcement.

This week we break down the latest CPL club to be officially announced, the HFX (Halifax) Wanderers FC. For this special episode, we are pleased to be joined by Privateers 1882 member and owner of the first Wanderers membership, James Covey. He shares his thoughts and reaction of the announcement, as well as explaining the origins of the Privateers 1882, which strangely enough has a bit of an Edmonton connection.

On this episode we invited the Young Gaffers podcast to join us to talk about their new hometown club, Cavalry FC. We went over the announcement itself, along with breaking down the choice in name, colours and crest.

After that conversation, we go a little deeper in analyzing the branding and how it compares to the other recently announced club, York 9.

And of course, we sprinkle in a few CPL rumours for good measure.

This weeks podcast focuses on York 9 FC and their formal announcement. We react to the announcement itself, and offer our thoughts the colours, crest, stadium and membership drive.

We then move onto talking about fan arrogance, and how we (Canadian soccer supporters) need to change a bit and be a little more arrogant about our own clubs now that they are coming to be a reality. We explain why it is important and how it can help drive support across the league.

And finally, we briefly ask the question if there is an issue with stadiums across the CPL. No conclusion is determined, but we figured it's worth getting the conversation started as we've seen some success stories as well as nightmares from watching the stadium issues plague the NASL.

This weeks episode is a jam packed on where we return to the classic format again with just Nathan and Adam. We offer (or Nathan at least does) reaction to both legs of the Al Classico, and how it lays the ground for the greatest CPL rivalry.

We also talk about the CPL owners meeting in Edmonton ahead of the CSA meetings where new groups were awarded memberships to operate as pro clubs in Canada. From the meeting, Commissioner David Clanachan spoke of his preference for calling Remax Field as home for the Eddies. We weighed in on the pros and cons of a move to Remax and how Clarke Stadium should still be the main focus.

We also offered some quick reaction to Calgary's home stadium for next year, why is it called Port City and more!
