Hello and welcome to the Total Soccer Show.

My name is Daryl Grove and I'm joined by a man who lives in his own little bubble.

0:29.3

His name is Taylor Rockwell.

Hello.

0:32.0

We are still keeping safe from coronavirus, right? We are not meeting in the studio. I am mostly staying in my own house except to go shopping. You pretty much on the same page? And dog walks.

2:06.5

2:13.9

At spin-off podcast hosted by Joe and Jordan.

2:16.5

If you've been watching the MLS's back tournament and you want daily reviews of all the action, go and subscribe to MLS Assist.

It's a whole separate podcast with a whole separate vibe.

2:27.5
