Summary

It's Thanksgiving week, so naturally it's a time to reflect and give thanks, which we do with a soccer spin on the newest Planet Fútbol Podcast. Before that, though, we take a look at the MLS conference finals, where the Columbus Crew and Portland Timbers are each one result away from advancing to MLS Cup. Is there any way back from two-goal deficits for either of the two highest remaining seeds, the New York Red Bulls and FC Dallas? We also have a special interview with longtime Trinidadian journalist Lasana Liburd, who spoke to Grant Wahl in Trinidad & Tobago during the USA's World Cup qualifier there about the post-Jack Warner state of affairs in the Caribbean nation. == The Planet Futbol Podcast is brought you by the SeatGeek app, available in app stores and at seatgeek.com.
