The boys are back with a brand new CONCACAF LASER FOCUS, and we're back in the (virgin) islands with the U.S. Virgin Islands. We dive into the history of the U.S. territory, Donald and Jonathan talk about their experiences there, and then we talk about soccer in the islands. Donald gets to play REAL TEAM OR FAKE TEAM (29:59) and the vibes... they're back.

The greatest event in athletics is back, baby! Ahead of the October window, the guys give updates on the standings and storylines to watch for. In League C, Anguilla needs your help. Over in League B, Montserrat still can't get people to the island.

The world's greatest sports event is back in action, as the 2023/24 edition of the Concacaf Nations League kicks off! Eric and Donald take you through the Leagues and touch on the new formats, the groups, and the things you should know, like Montserrat is losing a home game because people can't get to the island or Jamaica missing a star attacker or whether or not a hurricane might hit during the game. Then our friend Jon Arnold joins us (23:28) to dive deeper on the storylines surrounding this September window of Nations League action. We talk Trinidad & Tobago's latest drama, the most interesting group in League B and who really has a shot besides Panama to make the League A quarterfinals.

The squad sat down before the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup ended to talk about Concacaf's exploits down under, from the USWNT's underwhelming results, Jamaica's strong showing, and Canada's disastrous results. Also some talk about the Concacaf Carribbean Club Shield which recently took place in Saint Kitts and Nevis, a place one team spent more time than they wanted to.

ONE MORE ROUND is a special edition bonus podcast available to our subscribers on the World of Concacaf Patreon.

On this long overdue chat, Donald checks in with Eric from New Zealand to talk about the start of the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup for the Concacaf squads: Canada, Haiti, Costa Rica, USA, Jamaica & Panama. Donald talks about his trip so far and we discuss the stories for Concacaf and try to avoid too much USWNT talk. After that, chatter about the Leagues Cup, a made up tournament that is definitely not real, but still ridiculous.

Eric and Donald lead off by remembering our friend Ben Cowherd, a friend of the podcast and beloved member of Nashville's soccer community.

After taking time to pay tribute, it's time to talk Nations League Finals, taking place this week in Las Vegas. We look at Panama (8:35), Canada (11:48), Mexico (17:19), the USMNT (20:57) and offering our predictions before things go off the rails with live reaction as Concacaf announces that Nicaragua is booted from the 2023 Gold Cup.

The episode we've been waiting for, as Donald and Eric are joined by their friend Vishal for a CONCACAF LASER FOCUS to talk about the inspiration of this podcast: Saint Vincent and the Grenadines. After sharing some background on the island and the soccer (including a wild recent competition on the island), we do our LET'S GET A BUCKET segment (16:00) about the place that basically invented the buckets. We discuss the food, the rum, the trips we've taken and Eric's favorite place on Earth before Vish gets to play REAL TEAM OR FAKE TEAM (62:39).

Join us on our Patreon for a special ONE MORE ROUND bonus episode with Vishal where we talk about our favorite food in Concacaf and why American fast food chains abroad can't be slept on.

Concacaf held the draw for the third edition of Concacaf Nations League, the most important tournament in world athletics, and we had to talk about it. A run down of the Leagues, the format changes, how we don't even know how it all works, everything you need. Later, a recap of news around the region, from Folarin Balogun committing to the USMNT, Grenada's new manager, and a late change to the Road to Concacaf W Gold Cup.
