    That’s more like it, Black-and-Red family! We are back with another episode, and for once, we actually have a win to celebrate. It wasn't always pretty, but taking all three points against Philly at Audi Field feels like a massive weight off the shoulders. In this episode, we break down that gritty 1-0 victory, highlight the standout individual performances, and look ahead to see if the boys can keep this momentum rolling as we head to Texas. Intro to the Show: Ryan, Angus, and James dive into the relief of a clean sheet and a home win. The Big Talking Points: Latest news around the club and what these three points mean for the start of the season. Match Review: A deep dive into the 1-0 win over the Philadelphia Union. We discuss Tai Baribo’s clinical finish and Jackson Hopkins' massive defensive shift. Match Preview: Can we make it two in a row? We preview the upcoming clash at Q2 Stadium against Austin FC. Fan Q’s: We take your questions from Instagram and Discord, including the current state of the "Hope-O-meter." Don't miss a single update as we navigate this crucial stretch of the season!
