We extend our Local College Soccer segment to bring closeted Iowa Soccer Legend, Rick Isaacson, to the studio. We discuss his playing background, the Simpson Storm and their local flavor, plus we touch on the basic Iowa youth player and the difference between development and playing to win.

Evergreen Jeff Larentowicz joins us for his second time ever on a podcast. We discuss Des Moines' new USL Championship announcement, but also travel in Major League Soccer and of course, a great travel-related story from Jeff.

What a big time episode! Not only do we have a (potential) future Iowa Soccer Legend in the studio, but Charlie Bales joins us to discuss the ins and outs of the big USL Pro announcement made by Kyle Krause. Our exclusive coverage will provide a little more insight than you've been able to read in other publications, plus you'll get to hear genuine excitement from three guys who have grown up in the Iowa soccer community.

The legendary Ventsi Stoimirov joins us in the studio to not only discuss the Grand View University women's program, but we also learn about his super interesting origin story and his perspective of the history of Des Moines Soccer.

We welcome Drake coach, Gareth Smith, to the studio to review the first quarter of their season and of course, preview the remaining games as they strive to qualify for the NCAA Tournament. We also have a chance to tap into Smith's unique perspective as Director of Coaching for the state association and speak about development of the Iowa player and some of the challenges they face as the national landscape continues to grow.

Returning to the studio, Blair Reid chats with us about the upcoming season for his Vikings as they look to get back to the national tournament for the first time since 2016. We cover preseason, settling into school and their early run in against several nationally ranked opponents.

We circle back to the Game of the Week and kick things off with a contest between the women's teams from Drake and Baylor. But first, we have a chat with Baylor coach Paul Jobson about his coaching journey, working with his wife and what it's like at a program like Baylor.

In our first Local College Soccer Preview segment, we had the pleasure of interviewing Drake University Women's coach, Lindsey Horner. Lindsey joins us in the studio to talk about the Bulldogs in 2019, the recruiting trail and the overall soccer landscape in Iowa.

We welcome Daryl Brazeau to the studio for a chat and a beer - Summer Shandy to be exact, per the recommendation of our sponsor Central City Liquor. We discuss Daryl's involvement with producing high-quality female soccer players in a wide-ranging interview.
