It’s finals week for all of us student-journalist hybrids, so the RC crew keeps it simple.
What Ep. 35 lacks in complexity is made up for by the in-depth reviews of how Cascadia fared in the second week of the MLS season. Aaron Campbell joins Toby Dunkelberg and Giordan Bonanno to celebrate Octavio Rivero’s late winner at Chicago. They also assess the Caps’ chances in Florida this weekend in the first-ever interview for our beloved co-host. Matt Hoffman of Portland reprises his role as PTFC correspondent, lamenting two dropped points for the Timber at home against the defending champions. He details why he fancies the Timbers’ odds at Sporting Park this weekend, as well.
Coverage of the Seattle Sounders this week focuses on a vehement defense of his skill from Ari Liljenwall of MLSsoccer.com. We find out that Sigi Schmid selects his lineup each week based on requests from the RC cast members, and that the comments section on MLSsoccer.com isn’t a place for the faint of heart.
Back with more laughs, more analysis, and more coverage of Cascadia than anyone else has, Radio Cascadia Ep. 35 has all you need to prepare yourself for this weekend’s Northwest soccer action.
