And that means the podcast has to gear up for another game week. So as the Galaxy slowly work their way toward their match with the Portland Timbers, we want to get you out of this international break. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter want to tie up any loose ends and finally put his extended break to bed. The guys will start with some more observations on the Galaxy's win over Austin FC and why Dejan Joveljic is practically screaming at Greg Vanney to let him start. What do the stats say about Joveljic's scoring prowess in recent games? And does that mean more minutes for the Galaxy's chess-minded striker? Josh and Kevin will also dive into some updates on the Galaxy's group of internationals and why Efrain Alvarez's stint with the U-21s isn't a great sign for the club. Plus, did Julian Araujo finally find the field for Mexico? And why three young Galaxy players are fighting for Olympic and U-20 World Cup spots. Finally, the guys want to start looking ahead to who the Galaxy may chase in the transfer market this summer. And why Josh thinks there could be a big splash on a short-term contract. Do you feel like this 2022 team is better than last year? Are they passing the eye test? We've got a packed show ready for your listening and viewing pleasure. So let's get started.

And now, Josh is back. The LA Galaxy, however, are still on an international break. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira get you caught up on their thoughts ranging from the come-from-behind win against Austin FC and some International Break musings as well. First, Josh wants to update Eric on his vacation. Or maybe we should call it a "work trip." How big was the snake? And how tired is Josh? Then Josh wants to get his thoughts on the win over Austin- a game that feels like it was months ago- and why Greg Vanney got it all right or wrong. And either way, it probably doesn't matter. Because Dejan Joveljic is on fire, and he could be the weapon that gets the Galaxy to the postseason. Plus, what does it say that the Galaxy's most dominant victories both came against teams that like to attack? How much of counter-attacking team are the Galaxy, and why are they masquerading as a possession-based team. And yes, the Galaxy pass the ball a lot. But most importantly, the podcast is back, which means many charts, some mild shenanigans, and a 95th-minute winner from Herb!

Maybe you shouldn't be. And maybe you should be. After all, the LA Galaxy dominated LAFC like no other team they've played all year. It was the total performance from start to finish and significantly raised the bar as to what you should expect from this team. On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman and Sophie Nicolaou discuss the Galaxy's 3-1 victory over LAFC and why there are standout performances across the board. Why did Raheem Edwards cement himself as an El Trafico legend after this game? Why did Kevin Cabral finally find everything clicking? And why was Sam Grandsir Josh's man of the match? We've got 60+ minutes of Galaxy-talk that will cover the broadcast details of the game and why it was called from Florida, and why Joe Tutino was even invited to call the game with Max Bretos. Josh and Sophie will also discuss the after-match confrontations. Did you like things being physical in this game? And are you now convinced of the power of the El Trafico? Is this rivalry real enough for everyone? Finally, Josh and Sophie will tell you the Galaxy's path to the US Open Cup and why the club is now firmly in the "win it" column. Plus, they'll get you ready for the last game before the break! Austin FC are invading Dignity Health Sports Park on Sunday, and it's going to be another tough match. As always, thanks for joining us, and enjoy some time off as Josh takes a break for a couple of shows.
