Andrew and David hit the road in an Audi (wrapped in Continental Tires, of course) to check out D.C. United's new digs at Audi Field. First, though, all the MLS transfer madness as the window swings open -- the deals done, the deals in process and all the reaction -- with special guests Charles Boehm and Pablo Maurer (@MLSist). Then, a new era begins in the nation's capital complete with a new stadium and new star in Wayne Rooney. So what's the present and future hold? Finally, a mailbag from the road!

The guys are back, including David after three full weeks in Russia, to catch up after a week off. First up, World Cup hacks and adventures in St. Petersburg and beyond.

Also in this episode ... Josef Martinez is chasing the single-season scoring record, LAFC might be the best expansion team of all-time and USMNT coaching candidates and much more in the mailbag.

With Andrew and David out of town, Matt Doyle and Bobby Warshaw take over. They start with a quick World Cup recap, breaking down Mexico's World Cup and Spain letting down the world, then get into the big MLS storylines.

Adama Diomande has 7 goals in less than 300 minutes ... How?

Dome Torrent has already started to make changes at NYCFC? ... What?

Chicago has now gone 5 unbeaten? ... Why?

Montreal have won 3 in a row and 4 of 5? ... Huh?

Plus...it might be time for Toronto to hit the panic button; what would that look like? Giovinco for Piatti... which team says no?

No need to wait. We've got a Thursday morning show for your listening pleasure! First up, Mauro Diaz may be on the move. Is FC Dallas right to consider selling the Little Unicorn?

MLS is back, and Matt Doyle and Ben Baer join Andrew Wiebe in the Green Room to dig into Dome (not Domenec) Torrent's first game in charge of NYCFC, Philly-lona's blowout win complete with comeuppance for snarky Twitter heroes, Kellyn Acosta's early hook in the Red Bulls' rout and everything else from MLS Week 17.

Plus, The Athletic's Paul Tenorio gives the guys the lowdown on Orlando City's coaching search and Doyle goes on an epic Juan Carlos Osorio rant.

Calen Carr and Bobby Warshaw join Andrew Wiebe in the Green Room as MLS prepares to return from the World Cup break. Before the guys give all 23 teams a turn under the microscope, they round up all the MLS, Concacaf and PRO headlines from Russia. The good, bad and the ugly (and straight up false).

Then it's on to US Open Cup with the quarterfinals set before hitting all the headlines for the entire league at the almost half-way point. What's at stake? Who is worth watching? Who needs to hire a coach (looking at your Orlando)? Whose coach must keep things running as planned (that'd be you, NYCFC)?

Finally, a fun mailbag with listener questions/comments on the viability of a 48-team at the 2026 World Cup, changes to referee structure and the Mexico conundrum.

Which ExtraTime Radio hosts will cop to rooting for Mexico? And why is everyone up in arms in the first place? Plus, complete breakdown of the coaching change in Orlando. Was it fair to Jason Kreis? What now for the Lions?

Eight more years! As Russia 2018 kicks off, there's finally some good news for American (and Canadian and Mexican) soccer fans.

Andrew sits down with Matt Doyle to digest the news, then USMNT legends Cobi Jones and Brian McBride camp out in the Green Room to celebrate and re-live their own memories.

Patrick Vieira said recently that his head and his heart are in New York City. Turns out the future of his coaching career is in the south of France.

In the second segment, Fox Sport's Rob Stone, Kate Abdo and John Strong join Andrew and David Gass to discuss the network's World Cup coverage. How did they prep? What do they expect? Is the criticism from outside warranted or overblown?
