Hello! It's the podcast that isn't afraid to sing Sinatra with the reigning US Soccer Player of the Year. Today, Katie and the Casualties react to the World Baseball Classic final, Team Venezuela taking down the USA in front of a very pro-Venezuela crowd, whether or not the US is really trying to win if Mark DeRosa is the manager and Mason Miller isn't pitching, Rob Manfred's silver medal presentation, and what part of the human anatomy is best represented by the WBC logo, plus Katie's thoughts on the WNBA's new labor deal and Team USA's gold medal in Paralympics Sled Hockey. Then, the stars of the reigning NWSL champions - Rose Lavelle, Emily Sonnett, Jaedyn Shaw, and Lilly Reale of Gotham FC - sit down with Katie in front of a live audience [20:33] to talk about their 2025 championship run, whether or not they were truly the underdogs, Jaedyn's quotes making t-shirts, the feeling of three straight games with late heroics in the postseason, what brought the team together, how they follow it up in 2026, the investment in players after the league kept Trinity Rodman from leaving for Europe, what's truly changed about professional soccer for women in the United States over the last decade, the international stage and taking home the Shebelieves Cup again this year, competing against the world's best and developing at that level, the World Cup in the United States in 2026, and the growth of the game in the United States, before a crazy game in the studio where we find out how truly had the best time at the championship celebration, who's the best future coach, who's best with the aux cord, who's really mad they missed out on Halloween 2025, and so much more. Then the group takes questions from the studio audience, and Katie and the Casualties wrap with the week's best e-mail, and a South Dakota legend.
