My go to!

Doug does a great meat and potatoes coverage of Atlanta United with a much appreciated professional journalist objective approach. I appreciate that he therefore avoids hot takes while he delivers his original and evidence based perspective on the MLS side. Additionally, this is the only podcast really that encourages questions of any level. At times it becomes an educational session and that is much needed and appreciated for many of us who are new to soccer. Keep up the good work Doug!

Excellent podcast

I’ve been listening regularly for a few years now and appreciate the many insights. I’m an AJC subscriber. Southern Fried Soccer, Politically Georgia and Bow Tie Chronicles now stand as my favorite AJC podcasts. Regards, Joe Sterling
