The next time. Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and a show that we definitely don't put out meekly. It's USMNT Weekly. Today we're casting our eye over the Nations League preliminary roster and maybe we'll see what kind of success that group will foster. And we'll look at some of the big names who are thriving abroad and ask why Christian Pulis' recent form has been slightly flawed. My name's Ryan Bailey. Joining me today is two of the biggest USMNT voice pieces and tastemakers in the Western Hemisphere, if I don't say so myself. First off, Taylor Rockwell, hello, Taylor. Hello, Ryan. That is high praise, and I do appreciate it. Thank you for being here. Thank you for hosting a USM&T show. Ryan, if you had to choose, would you rather host a USM&T show for like 45 to 60 minutes? Or would you rather host a show in which Joe and I talk about Survivor for 45 to 60 minutes? The first one, definitely. That's what I figured. Okay. I wasn't sure, though. I could go either way, but I feel like both could be punishing in their own different ways.

1:48.1

I really hope the second one's not an option, frankly, Taylor.

1:49.4

You never wait.

1:50.2

Yeah.

Hello, Joe.

2:51.8

Hey, I didn't think of myself as a tastemaker until very recently. And by very recently, I mean when someone tagged me on social media with Big Ange calling assists the most useless statistic in world football. So, Ryan, I think you might be spot on. Today's a good day for me. It is. Well, actually, Joe, maybe yesterday was a good day for you. You looked very prim and proper in your corduroy jacket yesterday, which you're not wearing today. So maybe your tastemaker status has gone down a bit. I felt like it would be a bit tacky to wear it back to back. I definitely do wear the same things back to back on the Thursday Friday shows because we record them back to back. And I don't feel like I'm really necessarily led to change outfits between that, unlike, unlike Graham who is committed to the bit. I think you might be right, but I felt like I didn't want to go back to back, Ryan. Very good. Wise choice, Joe. If you'd like to see our outfits or our faces or have some visual accompaniment to this here podcast, you can check us out on YouTube. Link in show notes.

All the cool kids are there discussing expected assists versus expected goals versus actual assists. Only the coolest kids apply. Is that real? Is that happening right now in the disco tell? At any given moment, probably. I love it. Hey, Taylor, we can't all be tastemakers in the Western Hemisphere like yourself. Yes, yes. Me wearing my t-shirt and hat so you don't have to see my hair, tastemaker extraordinaire.

Indeed.
