Jeremiah and Aaron take a bunch of questions from listeners that inquire about Brian Schmetzer's contract situation, whether advancing in the Leagues Cup is actually desirable and what we want the starting lineup to look like going forward.

Jul 20, 2023•36 min•Ep 418•Transcript available on Metacast That was not what the Sounders needed or were really expecting was it? Coming off a disappointing loss to the Earthquakes, and needing a win badly, the Sounders played much better but still had to settle for a 1-1 tie with FC Dallas. The Sounders have now not scored more than one goal or won consecutive games at home in about three months. This while playing good by almost all the underlying numbers. Still, the sounders head into the Leagues Cup break not in an entirely awful position, fourth in...
Jul 19, 2023•42 min•Ep 417•Transcript available on Metacast Since their inaugural season of 2022, Ballard FC has taken the USL League 2 world by storm. Not only are they consistently filling up the 1,500-person capacity at Interbay Stadium, but they're winning a ton of games as well. In the recently concluded regular season, they finished 10-1-1 to win the Northwest Division and are now hosting the Western Conference quarterfinals and finals this weekend. You can buy tickets here . To discuss their past and future, we brought on co-founders Sam Zisette a...
Jul 18, 2023•37 min•Ep 416•Transcript available on Metacast Remember all those good vibes from a couple of days ago? Those seem to be pretty much gone after the Sounders looked very flat in a 2-0 loss to the San Jose Earthquakes. Going with a very lightly rotated lineup, the Sounders looked like a team that was not at anywhere close to its best. Mark Kastner joins Jeremiah for this quick pod.

Win No. 2 came in pretty satisfying style, beating Vancouver 3-2 on the road i...
Jul 12, 2023•57 min•Ep 414•Transcript available on Metacast The Sounders finally scored a goal at home. It only took 405 minutes, but they did and it was enough to snap a five-game winless run. As luck would have it, they also moved up to second in the Western Conference table thanks to LAFC losing to the LA Galaxy, allowing the Sounders to inch ahead on goal-difference. The goal, it should be said, was very well-taken. It started with Obed Vargas driving forward to find Nicolas Lodeiro, who worked a 1-2 with Léo Chu, who then found Albert Rusnak for a l...

The Sounders have now gone scoreless in three straight home game and have been shut out in 4 of 5 overall. The Sounders are still somehow in third place and only three points out of first, but this is becoming increasingly brutal to watch.

Jun 16, 2023•31 min•Ep 406•Transcript available on Metacast Give the Sounders this: At least they made it entertaining. The Sounders finally broke out of their scoring doldrums by putting three past Charlotte FC, including a brace from Raul Ruidiaz and another from Cristian Roldan in both of their first starts in about two months. The only problem? The Sounders also gave up three goals, albeit all pretty well taken. Each of Charlotte’s goals erased a Sounders lead, meaning the Sounders blew more leads in this game than they had in their previous 17 combi...

Jun 08, 2023•21 min•Ep 402•Transcript available on Metacast That was not much fun. While the Sounders managed to stop their losing streak against the Timbers and picked up their ninth shutout of the season, the match itself was a pretty massive letdown. Not only did it end in this rivalries first scorless tie of the MLS era, but there simply wasn’t much action. The Sounders only took five shots and the two teams combined for just .6 expected goals. It was ugly. As someone who has suggested the Sounders’ performances have mostly been better than the score...

May 25, 2023•30 min•Ep 397•Transcript available on Metacast After a few weeks of disappointing results but some play that was at least decent at times, the bottom kinda fell out in Vancouver. The Sounders started slow and never really got on track in losing to the Whitecaps 2-0, their fourth straight loss against Cascadia Cup opponents. This one was among the most depressing, not necessarily because of the scoreline but because of how bad the Sounders looked throughout. The fight that has at least always been there was nowhere to be found, there were slo...

May 11, 2023•30 min•Ep 392•Transcript available on Metacast The Sounders came into Sunday’s game facing an opponent that looked all but dead in the water. Sporting KC had gone winless in 10, had only even managed three goals scored and looked fragile enough that an early goal could have completely knocked them out. Instead, the Sounders conceded a goal in the 4th minute -- the first they allowed at home since last season -- and then another in the 31st minute. That was more goals than KC had scored in any game this season and more than they’d scored in t...
