Broadcasting live from the outdoor courtyard nestled between Sitti and Gravy, Joe Ovies and Joe Giglio lean into international knockout drama for a special remote edition of the show, courtesy of our friends at Empire Eats. Ahead of the USMNT's massive World Cup Round of 32 knockout match against Bosnia and Herzegovina, Joe’s dad rolls through the live show to give his first-person travel log after trekking through the tournament hubs of Atlanta and Miami to witness the global spectacle firsthand.

Then, the conversation pivots heavily back to the ice as the NHL Free Agency window officially opens. While teams across the league hand out astronomical contracts, the defending champion Carolina Hurricanes have remained silent on Day 1. The guys analyze why a quiet start is actually smart business: combination of tight internal contract situations, a notoriously soft unrestricted free-agent class, and management's refusal to drastically overpay for marginal roster upgrades immediately after lifting the Stanley Cup. However, "running it back" entirely isn't an option. With Frederik Andersen up in the air, the guys explore the one glaring area of concern that management must actively address through the trade market this summer — the goalie position.

We wrap up the outdoor broadcast by plugging in the equipment to take your live reactions and voicemail drops on the OG Sports Phone!
