Call It What You Want, presented by Zillow, turns its attention to the imminent announcement of the March roster. Jimmy Conrad, Tony Meola, and Benny Feilhaber put their heads together and try to predict the USMNT's 26-man squad to face Belgium and Portugal (3:58). Is Noahkai Banks a lost cause (08:06)? And what did Mauricio Pochettino learn after traveling to watch Johnny Cardoso dunk on his former team Tottenham (19:56)?
Benny reflects on accepting the role of impact sub in Bob Bradley's team, and how those experiences apply to today's USMNT roster (28:25). And with four strikers in red-hot form, is it a given all of them will make the cut (33:21)?
The guys react to Alphonso Davies, Luis Malagón, and Marcel Ruiz suffering untimely injuries, and the impact that might have on fellow World Cup co-hosts Canada and Mexico (4247). And in Concacaf Champions Cup news, San Diego recorded a statement win over Liga MX champions Toluca (52:32)!

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.
