    Hot Takes LIVE | World Cup Edition; Strikers Rule the World; Predictions Revisited (It's not great) | E405

    Matt, Alan and Parker emerge from a World Cup induced haze to talk about the World Cup. Good job boys, that's progress. As the 2026 edition of the tournament approaches the half way point, are you picking Spain or France to take it all? Or maybe someone else? Will the Golden Boot come to MLS via Messi, or will Mbappé going to run away with it?  Parker plays back the predictions the crew made before the World Cup kicked off, any bets how they did? Recorded LIVE June 25th, 2026!

  2. The Bonfire | Lewy to Chicago: Confirmed? | S4:E33

    The Bonfire | Lewy to Chicago: Confirmed? | S4:E33

    Special guest Tom Bogert — now an official friend of the pod — joins John and Tim as Robert Lewandowski's move to the Chicago Fire moves frum rumor to official. Tom and Tim talk about what they know — with a deal all but confirmed but no ink on paper as of the time of recording. The trio then discuss what Lewandowski's signing would mean for the Fire, both on and off the pitch: What does Lewy's arrival mean for Hugo Cuypers, the Fire's Golden Boot-leading striker? Will two prove to be a dynamic duo, or will Hugo find himself in a new uniform before the end of the season? Tom then talks about his reporting with Paul Tenorio about the Fire's continued pursuit of German midfielder Leon Goretzka, confirmed to be moving on from Bayern and currently with the German National Team as they seek to advance in the World Cup. Speaking of — for the first time ever, two Chicago Fire players met on opposing sides of a World Cup match, as Joel Waterman's CanMNT teammates arranged for the World Cup exit for Mbekezeli Mbokazi and Bafana Bafana.

    The Bonfire | It Came Home | S4:E32

    If it feels like it's been a while, well, it has. Friend of the pod Joe Chatz makes it worth the wait, however, as he joins John and Tim to talk about all that's happened since last time, starting with Hugo Cuypers and Mbekezeli Mbokazi's first XI All-Star nods.After that, they switch focus to USMNT's friendly against Germany and find things to like even though the game ended in a 2-1 defeat — starting with the fun atmosphere that temporarily made Chicago the center of the country's soccer attention.Then the trio moves on from the game that was to the games to be played, with the World Cup finally upon us. There's a lot of Fire connections to be made with a record three active players going from Chicago to the world's biggest stage, and the trio break down what to expect from the Bafana Bafana, Canada and the USMNT in their tournaments — and talk about the rise of Fire homegrown Brian Gutiérrez and Mexico, starting with the tournament's opening match that pits Guti against Mbokazi.

    Hot Takes LIVE | The Time to win the Cup is Now!; Barroso out? Dean out? Franco the key?; The Hamburgler is Coming. | E402

    Matt Shableman is joined by Alan, the Pole with the Goal, the Sax in the Section, Królikowski, special guest Nick Poteres of Glass House Soccer and Matt's very own groomsman and guiding light, Eray, to talk about a soccer club that is not playing competitive soccer right now. But that doesn't stop the guys from dreaming up a scheme to grab a Championship in 2026. Maybe Ted Lasso was onto something when he told us, "It's the hope that will kill ya," but I'm writing this and am on team cup in '26! This month, we asked you all to vote on if Barroso should go-so, if Franco's new ACL will be as good as his last ACL, and which Fire superstar will win when Brian Gutiérrez and Mexico take on Mbekezeli Mbokazi and South Africa at the World Cup.  John, host of The Bonfire, isn't given the chance to defend himself or the quality of folk hero Johnny Dean in the wake of the Fire's growing stature. Sorry John. The Golden Arches are finally coming to Chicago (strictly in terms of stadium naming rights), something that the World Cup could never do. Recorded LIVE on May 27, 2026.

    The Bonfire | Good Finnish | S4:E31

    The Fire closed the first half of their season on a high note, getting a hard-fought 2-1 win over visiting Toronto FC. Before getting into that, though, John and Tim get struck with World Cup fever and ask if Poch is even bothering to phone it in with the USMNT. When they actually get down to the game at hand, the hosts find a lot to like from a gritty performance. From Robin Lod's improved form, resulting in the opening goal, to Berhalter making adjustments at half that finally seemed to tighten things up with the 4-4-2, all the way to Djé's strong performance off the bench, John and Tim take a lot of positives from a game that was far from the prettiest game on the pitch in the Fire's last game for a month and a half.

    The Bonfire | Lewa incoming? Oh, and Toronto Preview | S4:E30

    With the World Cup looming, John and Tim talk about the Berhalter's public statements around Lewandowski.  After beating a single quote from Gregg to death, John wonders why Tim brought up Lupe Fiasco before the pair finally put two and two together and remember that there's a game on Saturday.With the Fire set to face Toronto, the duo talk about what they want to see from the Men in Red in their final chance to show improvement in the first half of the season.

    The Bonfire | Chris Brady, Impact Player | S4:E29

    The Fire earned their second road win, sweeping the home-and-away series against CF Montréal. So obviously John and Tim spend the better part of half an hour talking about everything that they didn't like. In between finding nits to pick, though, they took time to shout out a great performance by Chris Brady and the quiet excellence of Philip Zinckernagel, all while wondering if Hugo Cuypers's Golden Boot-leading season is slowly getting overshadowed by the looming arrival of a certain recently unemployed Polish striker.Even if the performance on the pitch may not have been enough to inspire the hosts, at least John and Tim enjoyed it in style — Tim put on his reporter hat and went to Soccer House, the new soccer-only bar in Chicago, where talked to the owner and met up with John (IRL). The duo talked about what they thought of Chicago's new best place to catch World Cup matches.

    The Bonfire | Call It A Comeback | S4:E28

    The Fire had their first come-from-behind win in a 3-1 victory over D.C. United as torrential rain fell on Audi Field. John and Tim break down what they liked, and what they didn't from an effort in D.C. that got the result but somehow left a lot to be desired. There's also news from The 78, as the Fire's new home has a name. Tim really, really pushes for us to all call McDonald's Park "the Burgerbeu" while John points out that we'll probably just end up calling it "The Mac."  With little time to focus on the game that was, they then switch focus to the upcoming match in against CF Montréal in La Belle Province up north.
