The duo dives into all the awkwardness, traditions, and controversies surrounding this year’s draw—everything from presentation mishaps to questionable host selections, the involvement (or lack thereof) of iconic players, timing concerns, and some cringeworthy comedy skits along the way. You’ll hear honest reactions to FIFA’s expanded World Cup format, thoughts on the missed opportunity for true North American representation, and why the event always seems destined to be awkward—no matter who’s running it. Plus, the guys break down the most intriguing World Cup groups, highlight some juicy early matchups (like France vs. Norway and Mexico vs. South Africa), and debate whether the new format will add more excitement or just dilute competition.   00:01:27 – Episode Preview & Topics00:05:35 – Welcome, Special Guest Moussa Seck00:06:23 – World Cup Draw: General Thoughts00:34:33 – Key Takeaways from World Cup Draw00:50:46 – Closing Thoughts on World Cup Format Changes00:57:56 – MLS Cup Final Recap: Inter Miami vs. Vancouver01:22:23 – League Dynamics: MLS & USL Outlook01:33:47 – Liga MX Semifinals Rant01:38:59 – Liga MX Final Preview: Toluca vs. Tigres01:46:42 – Games to Watch This Weekend   Also in this episode: MLS Cup Final recap: Messi leads Inter Miami to their first-ever title, while Vancouver is left with missed chances and ‘what-ifs.’ The most disappointing Liga MX semifinals in recent memory (and why the aggregate rule needs to change) Player awards voting, jersey giveaways, and ticket-buying advice so you don’t get scammed for World Cup 2026 “Games to Watch” for the coming weekend in Europe and across North America Catch all this and more on Episode 242 of Insert Name FC Podcast—a show for fans who want their soccer talk real, passionate, and never sugarcoated.
