Avsnitt

  • Bouanga scored! Giroud touched the ball a bunch! We found out what Bruce Arena did! Darren, Vince, and Travis break down everything you need to know from a sloppy but successful outing against San Jose, the team that REALLY wants to have a rivalry with us but we couldn't care less. We talk Hugo's big save, Sergi's absolute laser, and Olly's ascent into the stars. Plus we hear from superstar MISS BONES as she walks us her jumbotron sign that broke the internet. ARE WE BACK??? (No.)

  • You put your #DoloIn, you put your #DoloOut, you put your #DoloIn, and you post it all about. Travis, Darren, and Vince breakdown the 24 hours of fan rage following the loss to Miami in the Champions Cup, chat about what's going wrong with LAFC, and ask again WHAT DID BRUCE ARENA DO IN NEW ENGLAND? Then, they're joined by Kirk Kinsey, host of LAFC Podcast The Counterpress to hear from someone who is less supportive of Steve Cherundolo than the shill hosts of the cringe podcast Happy Foot Sad Foot. Plus we talk all about what to expect from a very good San Jose team and even, and you won't believe this, make some bets for this weeks match. That's what it's all about!

  • Travis, Vince, Darren, The Chat, and a few brave callers all weigh in on LAFC's frustrating 1-0 loss to Houston, yes you read that right, LAFC's 1-0 loss, to Houston. With a rotated squad, we hoped we'd find a player who'd step up with an opportunity to show they deserve some more minutes or cement their role as a reliable depth piece, but no, in fact we showed almost nothing in that match, and Houston also showed almost nothing but a Jack McGlynn goal, making for an incredibly boring match. So we do our best to find SOMETHING entertaining for you to enjoy in the postgame show, including MANY completely unrelated topics we dive into after moving on from our (surprisingly legitimate, in retrospect) breakdown of the actual game. Come for the soccer analysis, Stay for Darren's Epic Viral Tips!!!

  • This is normally an LAFC podcast, but this week we talk about Messi for like an hour. It's honestly almost entirely about Messi and if we can beat Messi. Even in the second segment, we play a game to see who get's Travis' extra ticket to see Messi. Darren Vince and Travis break down all the Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi. Then, we talk Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi, Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi and Messi. And as always Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi. Houston? No. Messi Messi Messi Messi Messi.

  • The first game of the Surfliner Series is complete and holy sh*t did it not disappoint. Darren, Vince, and Travis break down Smoli's unbelievable goal, Hugo's unbelievable howler, and whether or not it's offensive to call Forrest Gump dumb. We had callers from the stadium, callers from the San Diego Double Tree toilet, and we drew a winner for our InterMiami ticket giveaway. Forgive me for saying this after a loss but... the most fun postgame show we've had all year?

  • A true rival or just another little brother? LAFC heads south to San Diego for the very first match up between the Black and Gold and expansion franchise San Diego FC. Tony from SDFC podcast 2 Balls and A Mic is here to break down everything we need to know about the club, Travis, Darren, and Vince are here to break down all the storylines for the match, and podcasting is here to cure male loneliness. It's not working! Plus we talk all those pesky Griezmann rumors and spend way too long discussing SD's terrible crest. And remember, Stay Classy, San Diego (aka BE NICE TO ALL OF OUR FANS WHO ARE VISITING).

  • This episode did not have our own Travis Helwig, but instead it did KINDA have EVERYTHING else??? Our first caller from the stands in the middle of another MLS match in progress in another country; a special visit from Carlos of Global Diplomatic; an insane call from Heel Of The Foot Geoff Tock, who of course wanted to talk about anything but the match: other TV writers, strip clubs in Tijuana, the USMNT, hypothetical imspossible MLS trades, and of course he takes time to trash takes from other callers... and also a cameo in the chat from our friends at ter ur Amirian Law who are sponsoring our InterMiami Ticket Giveaway which you still have time to enter! And oh yeah, LAFC won 2-0! We talk about that bunch too!

  • 200 episodes in, and Travis still can't name a single LAFC2 player! Vince, Darren and Travis are here to discuss all the storylines heading into this week's match up like why this season has felt so frustrating, what the offense will look like without Denis Bouanga, and the birthplace of Ed Asner! Plus, we play a game about how boring Kansas City is, and of course we make some bets. But most of all, THANK YOU FOR 200 EPISODES. WE LOVE YOU BYEEEEEE.

  • We break down LAFC's excessively frustrating 1-0 defeat to Austin FC, their third consecutive loss and first at home this season.

Let's all get some SLEEP!

  • Have you ever broken up with someone even though they were so good for you but the relationship had just run it's course? And then three months later, you run into them at a party, and they're doing really well and they seem happy, and you can't help but wonder... have I made a mistake? You know how hard that is? Well, Ilie Sánchez returns to Los Angeles this week, so get ready to feel it again, baby! Plus, Travis, Darren, and Vince break down storylines, chat about our new star Ünder, and have an incredibly enjoyable conversation with Steph and Mike from the VERY FUN Austin FC podcast Swoontower, to find out all about just who we're facing this week. And we ask, what if the smart choice all along was walking away?

  • We lost but we won and boy did it feel that way! LAFC FINALLY slay the dragon in Columbus and it was NOT EASY to get there. The commentors were unhinged, Travis, Darren, and Vince were having breakdowns, and one man sent us $99.99 for what we can only assume was feet pics. AND WE COST MORE THAN THAT. This post-game is the longest we've ever done, and honestly, you can skip the last hour if you want. You won't be missing anything. TIME TO TAKE DOWN MESSI FOLKS!!! We love you, byeeeee.

  • Darren, Travis, and Vince discuss the 5-2 steamrolling from Seattle IN Seattle ON their turf. A WILDLY rotated squad managed to land nowhere near adjusted expectations for the group, with a lackluster performance across the board. We thought we had depth - at the very least, we don't have an entire second lineup of starters. But we do have a healthy first line (except Marlon, who didn't escape the turf unscathed) for our far-more important CONCACAF Champions Cup match in Columbus on Tuesday. See you again then!

  • Two games. Two revenge stories. Two hosts. RIP Darren Miller. Travis and Vince hold down the fort and discuss everything you need to know about a week that will mean a lot for the psyche of LAFC fans. We discuss our dominating win against Columbus and what we have to do to bring it home in the second leg, and then we chat with Noah Riffe from Lobbing Scorchers about just why this Seattle Sounders team is even scarier this year. Let's be honest, this episode is mostly Vince being smart and Travis saying things like "are we back?" over and over again. REVENGE TIME, BABY.

  • LAFC with an HISTORIC win and tactical MASTERY over Columbus Crew. We (all three TOGETHER IN PERSON FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER) celebrate LAFC's 3-0 CCC victory against Columbus Crew, including Bouanga's stellar goals and the team's disciplined pressing and buildup play. Despite a limited crowd, the atmosphere was electric. We break down the match, the game plan, and the goals, with the help of some new and old friendly faces, as well as one old unfriendly voice. #DoloIn #UpTheFoot

  • We dissect LAFC's narrow 1-0 victory over NYCFC, thanks to a late goal from THE STACHE, Ryan Hollingshead. Were we thrilled with the win? Not really. Should we have been? Maybe! Have they established themselves this season in a way that makes us feel confident about Tuesday's CCC match vs. Columbus Crew? Not really! Are we gonna look back at 6 points from the first two matches in MLS play as huge later in the season? Maybe!

  • Yes, we talk about Sergi Palencia. But Travis, Darren, and Vince ALSO breakdown everything you need to know about this week's terrifying match up against the Columbus Crew in the Champions League, and a regular season match up against the pigeons from Queens. We talk Olivier Giroud's starting spot, we try to say something nice about the city of Columbus, and we pay Darren out for his WAY TOO EASY bet from last week. But we also have to talk about Sergi Palencia and we don't like it!

  • I think I speak for everyone when I say: yeah, sure, I guess that was soccer. Travis is back and he joins Darren and Vince to break down LAFC's 1-0 victory/loss against Colorado. This one's got everything: the pod officially turns on Giroud, Delgado officially turns on Carson, and the announcer officially turns on his Spanish pronunciation when he says Palenthia. Speaking of Palencia, wooooof, it's about to get ugly, as a scandal around him saying a slur will almost definitely be what people remember about this one. But despite it all, this post-game was a fun one. On to Columbus, baby!

  • Darren hosts solo as he recaps LAFC's narrow 1-0 victory to kick off the MLS season. We saw some rust get worked off nicely, and some rust still hangin out, which is not as nice, but a BEAUTIFUL team goal from Delgato-to-Bouanga-to-Ordaz-to-Ebobisse for the BANGER maintained LAFC's undefeated status at home. We also got important updates from callers on the 2025 BMO stadium vibes, food updates, and more. Also, Darren's bet cashed on DAY ONE!? Travis and Vince COULD NEVER.
