The Daves I Know

A Dave, MJ and a Dan get together to discuss all of the recent Loons moves both in and out of the club. They discuss how the new signings might fit in and speculate about how the team will lineup on Saturday!

Later they recap the USWNT Gold Medal run, the hiring of Poch for the Men's team, and some brief European soccer.

We're back to break down the Leagues Cup matches for the Loons and highlight the recent spate of signings.

Then we spent the bulk of the episode discussing the US Women and Men (but let's face it, the Women's tournament has been better) Olympic adventures. Including some interesting substitution patterns for Hayes, A Swanson renaissance, Trinity Rodman with bangers, and a basically average Men's team performance.

We're back to discuss the Loons not super great week briefly, but hey, they did Make a Wish and get off the losing train, so baby steps.

More importantly, Bridget and Nubia are joining Dave to help discuss the US Olympic soccer teams. Firstly, a brief discussion of the men's team, followed by a much deeper dive on the women's team.

We have a full podcast this week as Nubia, Eric and Rodrigo join MJ and Dave to briefly discuss the Loons, MPLS City and Aurora, before deep-diving into the EUROs and the chaos that was CONMEBOL and COPA America '24. As always, the MN Futbol Show brings the receipts.

Two Loons matches and two new ways to lose. Eric, MJ, and Dave briefly discuss the most recent Loons losses and chat about what has gone wrong with the team and who, if anyone, is at fault for the recent slide in form. Bright side, we actually think they played well the last few matches. After Loons news we discuss MN Super Cup and MN Aurora before wrapping up the pod with EURO & COPA thoughts. Eric has some thoughts on Brazil!

The MN Futbol Show Boys join to discuss Loons, but mostly to talk Euros and Copa. What is wrong with Mexico, can the US survive (spoiler alert, they can't), and what is up with this Eastern European futbol renaissance? Also, we find out in real-time Aurora is not hosting playoffs for some fucking reason!

The less said about the Loons the better, so we dispense with the Loons quickly and since we are joined by Brazilian correspondent Eric Silva Brenneman to talk all things Copa America and Euro 2024.

We also chat briefly about the Loons transfer rumors and Minnesota Aurora FC is very close to clinching their third straight Heartland Title.

Kaleb joins the TDIK pod for the first time and we talk about bringing our toddlers to the match last Saturday. Spoiler Alert: A lot of girl-dadding in this one! Zeller tells a story about making fun of Jesus Ferreria, the guys talk about the valuable point secured, and MN kids on the pitch.

We also discuss all of the other soccer happenings in the Twin Cities this month, specifically Aurora and MPLS City making playoff pushes!

Zero points in LA but three points against the Sporks, completes a pretty intense 8 days. Jess and Zeller briefly discuss both matches before addressing the fact that 10!!! International Loons will be unavailable for the upcoming Pride match against FC Dallas.

It's a Memorial Day Miracle, A Bridget and a Dave get together in person to laugh at Fortuna Dusseldorf, but more importantly discuss the stupidest MNUFC match ever. We don't necessarily mean that in a bad way, but boy howdy was it fucking stupid.

Plus lower division soccer is really in full force and we hype up MPLS City SC & Aurora!
