| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Total Soccer Show and our latest batch of listener questions. |
| 0:26.8 | Today we're talking about transfers of Christian Pulisic, the greatest individual seasons of all time, and the idea of holding a World Cup every year. |
| 0:36.7 | Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy. My name is Ryan Bailey. |
| 0:39.9 | Joining me today is a man who is sitting on the edge of his seat because of the intense action in Madrid. |

| 0:52.0 | Hello, Graham, Rutherland. I mean, do they have a separate rankings system now for |
| 0:56.4 | vaccinated and unvaccinated and Novak Djokovic is top of the unvaccinated? Yes, I am quite high on |
| 1:02.9 | Andy Murray this morning because he did a good thing yesterday. Maybe tomorrow when he gets thumped by |

That was clearly an oversight on my part in my, in my plan to have charlotte all the way down to the |
