Tottenham have parted ways with Thomas Frank, and the big question is: was he really the problem? The boys dig into whatβs actually happening at Spurs, whether the issues run deeper than the head coach, and which managers could realistically step in to fix things. Is this about tactics, recruitment, ownership β or something bigger?
Then Austin FC striker Brandon Vazquez joins the show for an honest and revealing conversation. He opens up about recovering from his ACL injury, doing βquick mathsβ in his head about the World Cup timeline the moment he got hurt, and what it will take to fight his way back into the U.S. Menβs National Team picture. Vazquez also shares what it was really like playing in Liga MX β from nonstop media attention to the intensity of fan culture β and how it compares to MLS. Plus, we get the full origin story of his βSupermanβ goal celebration (yes, including the capes).
To close it out, the boys react to the 2026 MLS kit reveal and give their unfiltered best and worst picks. Which clubs nailed it? Which designs shouldβve stayed in the concept phase? Weβre handing out praise, roasting questionable choices, and ranking the fits youβll be seeing all season long.
