Jason and Jared catch up after Gregg Berhalter announced his 26 man roster for the September camp... and then updated it even further due to injuries. The biggest surprise was at striker with Ricardo Pepi getting the call and Jordan Pefok being left at the top of the table in Germany. The guys debate why Gregg made this decision and if there is still a path for Pefok to go to Qatar. Plus, with Cameron Carter-Vickers and Chris Richards dropping out of camp with injuries - Mark McKenzie and Erik Palmer-Brown get the call up. The guys debate why they got the call over an in-form Tim Ream. Finally, Jared introduces a new game to the crew "Cap or Crap" to close out the show. Thanks to everyone who called in!

  No Jared this week (like he has a life or something?) so Jason decided to do something a little different.

COUNTDOWN TO COPA: 50 Days Til Copa America 2024, MLS Teams As Monopoly Spaces

After a short hiatus, the boys are back and better than ever to take on the big stories of the day in American soccer.  First, there's the news that Sergino Dest did a knee and will miss Copa America. Who will Gregg Berhalter turn to at right back for the big summer tournament? Then the boys get into Weston McKennie's contract impasse with Juventus and the other...business...that Weston seems to be up to in the north of Italy. Listener discretion advised because that spirals into a discussion about soccer terms as sex positions. Get stuck in, you know what I mean? Finally, some MLS news hits the show, namely that Don Garber and MLS seem to have blown up Indy Eleven's stadium play in Indianapolis by talk to Indy's mayor. Did MLS do some dirty shit? Or is everyone just doing what American soccer has always done?
