  • Ep. 1 - California Football Federation
    In this episode, we highlight The California Football Federation!
    Founded in 2017, The California Football Federation "exists to transcend the borders that restrict  California’s rich history, diverse culture, and progressive values from the rest of our American neighbors and the rest of the world by competing in a sport rarely understood in North America, but where California is most exceptional".

  • Introducing Unrecognized!

    Unrecognized explores the gray intersections of statehood and international football. You’ll rarely hear about the big name teams you may know. Instead we’ll be discussing independent football federations, countries, and little-known breakaway regions that are fighting for recognition both on the pitch and the global stage.


    From Abkahzia to Zimbabwe - Kurdistan to Kiribati– join me as I chat with players, coaches, and special guests for casual discussions on the history, culture, and geopolitics of The World’s Game in the shadows.
