Welcome back pumpkin spice season I mean English Premier League! On today's podcast Justin and Maria talk about EPL's matchweek 1, some antics from Arsenal, and the state of the kits--with a specific focus on the neck region. They also bring it back to MLS and chat about changes happening at the Chicago Fire with the announced exit of sporting director Georg Heitz and DP Xherdan Shaqiri. So sad to say goodbye. But it's also time to say hello to Mauricio Pochettino as we welcome him to the USMNT. Big news as the USL introduces it's latest addition: the USL Super League--a designated Division One women's league. In the post-olympic void, Maria and Justin discuss the history of the very first Women's soccer game in the US dating back to 1893, and what we can do to make sure we keep women's soccer at the front of our minds.

Soccer is back! MLS commences with its 29th season. An exciting opening weekend, not without its controversies (looking at you, replacement refs). Justin and Maria also share updates on EPL, the biggest match of the season in the Championship, and that sneaky little tifo by Legia Warsaw supporters.

How would the bottom seven Premier League teams fare if ranked on design and atmosphere.
