Advertise on podcast: That’s So MLS

After an extended World Cup break, we bring you back up to speed with all the new (and not so new) faces in MLS and whether we really learned much in the last few weeks. We also disect teams' approach to Leagues Cup and take a look ahead at what a new league commissioner means for MLS. Wildfire Response Fund That's So MLS Links Also We Have a Blog Now

With MLS on a break for the Men's World Cup, Andrew chats with Mark Franek, author of American Soccer Nation: The Remarkable 150-Year History of Yanks on a Roll, from Mob Football to the Modern Game to talk about why he wrote a history of U.S. men's soccer, how the 1994 World Cup helped usher in the league, being an MLS Liker and why you should know the names Bethlehem Steel and Archie Stark.

This week we catch up the drama around MLS trying to relocate the Vancouver Whitecaps #SaveTheCaps  and how fans around North America have responded. We also take a look around the league the legendary, the lacking, and the laggards.  That's So MLS Links Also We Have a Blog Now

Another few game weeks have passed and we've got the teams who are the up and up, like Toronto FC, who had themselves an early morning (for us on PST) wild comeback against Colorado. We also look across the league at the big news and transfers and talk Inter Miami's so-Nu-it-ain't-even-done-yet stadium. That's So MLS Links Also We Have a Blog Now

We can hardly believe it either but the opening games of MLS are in the books and Champions Cup is well under way, so we're back with a rundown of all the teams that have impressed us so far. We look all around MLS with a special focus on the 3 Canadian clubs. That's So MLS Linktree

It's been a hot minute since our beloved Whitecaps fell in the final to Inter Messi FC so we've got the full run down of that match plus some of the big off season moves happening. We talk the teams we think could be in trouble and those we think will be just fine heading into 2026.   All the That's So MLS links mentioned.

We have a lot of playoff and off field MLS news so we do a bit of rapid fire updates and then get straight to the heart of the matter: the two best MLS teams this season are heading to the final. And one of them is the Vancouver Whitecaps  That's So MLS Links

Decision Day has come and gone and we are here catching up on all the action since then. We talk about the wild card games, the first games of round 1, some big news about retirements and the ever-evolving coach carousel, and even manage to throw some praise at Inter Miami. That's So MLS Links

With Decision Day just around the corner, we take a look at the Eastern Conference, where we have certainty about who's in and who's out. In the West, things are decidedly more up for grabs, so we look at who we think may get the business done. We look at some teams making a comeback, some teams sticking to their winning ways, and some teams whose seasons ended a while ago. And we cap it all off with some CPL drama. *Recorded before the Voyageurs Cup Final

Nick and Bates tackle a wild August for transfers in MLS, including the arrivals of Heung-Min Son to LAFC and Thomas Müller to the Vancouver Whitecaps, as well as TFC landing Djordje Mihailovic and Colorado bringing Paxton Aaronson back to the league.

With Club World Cup, Gold Cup, and regular MLS action, we have reached peak soccer summer! We look at some of the major news around MLS, check in on the not-so-perfect-anymore Whitecaps, as well as the still not very good Toronto and Montreal. We also glance at the other competitions, including where things went wrong for both the US and Canada men's teams. https://linktr.ee/thatssomls

After a disappointing CONCACAF Champions Cup final where the Whitecaps collapsed, we look at how their fortunes were briefly worse. We also look around MLS where the top teams are beginning to put some daylight between them and the rest of the pack. We also grudgingly talk FIFA Club World Cup, the *actual* World Cup, and what it all means among travel bans and ICE raids. That's So MLS Linktree

For the past few weeks we have been witnessing something we never dreamt possible: The Vancouver Whitecaps are the best team in MLS and just defeated Inter Miami in Concacaf action TWICE. It truly is the golden age and we have a lot to say about it. We also talk about changes at LAFC, some inter-league transfers, and some other teams who are also very good right now.

MLS is four weeks old and things couldn't be further away from how we thought they might look. The best team in MLS is... the Vancouver Whitecaps. We're not upset. We do also look around the league at who has blasted out of the gates and who is still warming up. We also look around Concacaf and ahead to some national team action (recorded before Canada and the US crashed out). That's So MLS Linktree
