With 47 days to go until the USMNT's World Cup roster drops, Jimmy Conrad and Tony Meola open the mailbag - Charlie Davies eventually shows up, fashionably late as always. Tony addresses the week's gut-punching news: Patrick Agyemang is out of the World Cup (03:05). Then, the guys dive into your questions. What changes are needed before facing Paraguay in the opening game (09:23)? Would Gio Reyna's inclusion in the squad disrupt harmony (12:09)? Which legend from a past era does the current team need most (16:58)? What should the Pochettino succession plan look like (23:58)? Should Poch take a last-minute flyer on RSL's Zavier Gozo (36:49)? Tony reflects on the making of the USMNT's 1990 World Cup anthem "Victory" (38:54). The crew discuss their favorite youth soccer memories, and share advice for soccer parents (48:49). And, Liga MX teams take the upper hand in the Concacaf Champions Cup quarterfinals, but can an MLS side upset the apple cart (57:25)?

Every week, Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola get together for a conversation that feels like pulling up a chair at the pub with friends who just happen to have lived the professional soccer life. Their Call It What You Want: A CBS Sports Golazo Network Podcast is built on that unique perspective, offering analysis that’s as informed by their own experiences on the pitch as it is by the current headlines. The core of the discussion always circles back to the USMNT-its roster decisions, its performances, and its long-term trajectory-but the scope of the show is deliberately broader. You’ll hear them dig into the rhythms of MLS, the drama of the UEFA Champions League, and the journeys of Americans Abroad, all while assessing the overall health and growth of soccer stateside. This isn’t a dry recap of scores; it’s a lively, often opinionated, and deeply knowledgeable take on the stories that matter. Listening to this podcast means getting a blend of technical breakdown, historical context, and the kind of candid debate that can only come from former pros who are still deeply embedded in the game’s ecosystem. They call it what they want, and what results is an essential weekly check-in for any fan invested in where American soccer is and where it’s headed next.
