Episode Details

The 2025 Concacaf Gold Cup draw is in the books, and the USMNT has learned its group stage opponents. Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola breakdown the groups and lay out their expectations for Mauricio Pochettino’s side heading into their final competitive tournament before the 2026 World Cup.

The guys discuss what a successful Gold Cup run looks like, the importance of establishing a clear identity, and whether Jamaica could be this year's dark horse. Plus, thoughts on Mexico and Canada’s paths, the looming threat of Panama, and the issue of dwindling attendances. Later in the show, the crew reacts to the news that MLS owners are undecided on a switch to a fall-to-spring calendar, and discuss the changes to the men’s Olympic soccer format.
