Welcome to the scuff podcast where we talk about U.S. soccer.

Hey, everybody. We got a special guest today. He's one of the hosts of Caught Offside, the long-running soccer podcast that helped me through the dark days of 2017 and beyond. He's a native of Ireland, been in New York for a long time. Always fun to listen to. I really mean that, and we're happy to have him. J.J. Devaney, welcome to scuffed. Thank you so much. Is this my scoff debut? I believe that it is. It is, yeah. What took you so on? Somebody will make a comp. Put it on X.com. No, that's, no, that's great. Guys, thanks for having me. It's great to be on. And I should return the compliments to you. You guys have been flying the flag for long enough yourselves.

And Don is now the voice of the New Jersey Devils.

So we've all come a long way.

Boy wonder, I don't know why I had to go out of my way to be blasphemous there.

No, but I occasionally do.

I do get into the sacred and the profane every now and again. So I do, I do use religious imagery, Adam. It's clearly. I know that. I know you do. So, I mean, I just remember, like, back in those days, it was, there were really two places where you could listen to somebody talk about the men's national team where it was actually enjoyable to listen

to. And it was in no particular order. It was you guys and Total Soccer Show with Daryl Grove.

And I just want to say thank you because you guys stuck with it. You're still doing it.

It's still fun to listen to. Thank you. So kudos to you.
