You're listening to the MIB Media Network, and this is the women's game.

I will just, like, say one thing that I've never told you before.

And I was like, this is the perfect time to tell you.

But obviously, I hope I don't make you cry.

Okay, Lindsay, this is your show.

Take it away.

Hello, everyone.

I'm Lindsay Heaps, and this is the captain.

Oh, my gosh, and I'm Sam U.S.

I am just along for this ride, Lindsay.

I am so excited to be doing this show with you.

The captain is a podcast series brought to by the women's game, part of the Men and Blazers media network with U.S. Women's National Team Captain, Lindsay Heaps, told month by month as the team

marches towards the 27 Women's World Cup, Lindsay, it's so special having you here. You've won everything from Champions League to the NDPSEL championship. You've won the World Cup to the Olympics. You recently picked up two more trophies, the League's Cup with your club team, O.L. Leonese and the She Believes Cup with the U.S. Women's National team. You're just a proven winner at every single level. And now you have your

site set on the 2027 World Cup next summer. You're going to take us along for the ride throughout

the journey to making that roster, leading that team. How does it feel to have this show,

this show that's all about you? Like, what are you hoping this show is going to be?

My God, what a nice intro and you set our

name correctly it's like even hard for me to do it and your accent was actually really great for o'leonese

yeah like it's because we changed it so it's hard it's actually so hard for me privately i still

call you leone but i'm professional right now. I like professional. Sarmie. Well, one, I'm like so,

so grateful to be doing this with you. I think that's what makes it even more exciting. I just like,

I love you so much. And to be doing it with good people and a great show is like, it's so special and amazing for me.
