FC Cincinnati trade Chidozie Awaziem and Ian Murphy to the Colorado Rapids for GAM in the MLS Half-Day Trade Window. What does this mean for FC Cincy as they move toward Wednesday's MLS Expansion Draft and Free Agency? Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich to play at TQL Stadium in the FIFA Club World Cup 2025. What matchup are you most excited for?

It's time to pack up all of the kits for the season and watch the MLS Cup unfold without us. We sit down with Carter, staff writer for FCCincinnati.com, to get his thoughts on how the 2024 season unfolded and what the frontier looks like for 2025 and beyond. We do address the roster build, the promise within striker Kevin Denkey, and the questions surrounding Lucho's role next year. Most of all--Carter, what in the world is a "Billiken"?

The exit was premature, but it’s time to wind down the season. While the FC Cincinnati first team came up short of expectations, the second team shattered the glass ceiling in MLS Next Pro. We invite local guy Tyler who runs the MLS Next Pro beat to talk about the FC Cincinnati 2 season, Tyrone Marshall's award-winning work, and how the future looks for the team and the MLSNP league in general.

Significant changes could be ahead for FC Cincinnati! It appears that talisman Lucho Acosta has one foot out the door, but could league-record signing, Kévin Denkey of Cercle Brugge be the player who can deliver FC Cincinnati to the promised land?

How will Chris Albright manage the 2024-25 offseason? Listen as the guys give some thoughts on the Salary Budget and a wrinkle that could play large dividends into 2026.

FC Cincinnati fall to NYCFC in penalties to end their 2024 season. The proverbial page seems to have been turned as Lucho Acosta mentions that Saturday may have been his final match with FC Cincinnati. Do you have confidence that you will see Lucho back at TQL Stadium again?

Will possible signing, Kévin Denkey of Cercle Brugge be the game-changing Forward that has been promised? Moves for the 2025 season appear to be imminent. Lets us know what you think!

Each match from now on counts as a potential eliminator. If FC Cincinnati wants to get a home slate against Red Bulls, they'll need to go through their brothers from the Five Boroughs. We bring in Andrew from Hudson River Blue to talk about this pivotal clash and how the Pigeons—yes, that's their accepted nickname—changed their strategy to force the rubber match. Will it change again with NYCFC on the road, a situation they've had trouble with this season?

It's rare for us to get direct communication with writers and broadcasters from the team coming to TQL Stadium. That being said, it's hard to turn down the opportunity to talk with Austin David, the digital content manager for Orlando City SC. Austin has been in and out of the Orlando soccer scene, filling multiple roles both inside and outside of the team since 2012. We chat with him to get some insight on the Wingless Lions' incredible midseason turnaround and what both teams need to be aware of when OCSC comes to town to face FC Cincinnati.

Fresh off a four-point road trip, FC Cincinnati faces off against an LAFC squad that is both reeling from MLS season woes and celebrating a U.S. Open Cup victory. We bring on Erik from VOBG to gauge just how heavy the hangover is with another cup in the trophy case. Can this LAFC squad turn things around in the regular season? Do the Orange & Blue have a shot against the Black & Gold? Is Carlos Vela a savior or an anchor?
