    City SC Posse - Ep28: Navarro Has Arrived: 2 Goals, 15 Unbeaten & Minnesota Must Be a Win

    Rafael Navarro didn’t need much time to introduce himself. Thirty-four seconds into his first start for St. Louis CITY SC, the club-record signing had his first CITY goal. By the 51st minute, he had two. Navarro’s brace in Wednesday night’s 2-2 draw at Portland gave him the fastest goal in club history and made him the fastest CITY player ever to record a brace. He now has 12 goals and four assists in MLS this season. And even though Portland equalized again in the 89th minute, CITY’s ridiculous run keeps going: 🔥 15 matches unbeaten across all competitions 🔥 14 straight unbeaten in MLS 🔥 The second-longest MLS unbeaten run in league history Bright and Kev break down the Portland draw, Navarro’s immediate impact and another game that somehow felt both encouraging and frustrating. Then comes tonight. CITY returns to Energizer Park against Minnesota United, and this one feels different. St. Louis enters Matchday 26 in sixth place in the West with 38 points, level with San Jose and only two points behind FC Dallas for fourth. If the playoffs started today, CITY would face LAFC in Round One. Minnesota enters in 11th place with 29 points, coming off consecutive losses to Portland and Dallas. But the Loons have actually been better away from home this season at 5-5-2, and they’ve owned the recent series against CITY, winning six of the last seven meetings across all competitions. So who starts? ⚽ Navarro seems impossible to bench after two goals in his first start. ⚽ Simon Becher has been one of CITY’s hottest attackers. ⚽ Alex Mățan keeps making himself indispensable. ⚽ Conrad Wallem returns from suspension. ⚽ Carlo Holse still needs minutes to settle into the system. ⚽ And Wednesday’s U.S. Open Cup semifinal against Colorado is already looming. Navarro is also officially one yellow card away from suspension, and he will be unavailable for Wednesday’s Open Cup semifinal because he is cup-tied after previously appearing for Colorado in the competition. CITY has depth. CITY has momentum. CITY finally has its $12 million striker scoring goals. Now they need to start turning more of these close games into three points. Tonight: Minnesota United at Energizer Park.Kickoff is 7:30 PM CT on Apple TV. Bright says CITY 3-1. Kev says CITY 3-0. 🎙️ CITY SC Posse Ep28 - Navarro Has Arrived: 2 Goals, 15 Unbeaten & Minnesota Must Be a Win 🌐 NFNPPOD.COM

    City SC Posse - Ep27: We Owe Wallem an Apology: CITY Stuns Vancouver & Portland Is Next

    All right, Conrad Wallem. We owe you one. Last week’s CITY SC Posse literally included the words “Wallem Must Sit.” Then CITY went into first-place Vancouver, won 3-1, and Wallem responded with his first goal of the season, another assist and a spot on MLS Team of the Matchday alongside Tomas Totland. Yoann Damet was also named Coach of the Matchday. So Bright opens Ep27 with an official apology. Sort of. We break down CITY’s massive road win over Vancouver, how St. Louis recovered after conceding almost immediately, Alex Mățan’s best performance since arriving, another huge night from Totland and Simon Becher scoring for the fifth consecutive match. Becher now has a team-leading seven MLS goals and 12 goal contributions, while CITY’s first-ever win at BC Place extended the club’s unbeaten run to 14 matches across all competitions and 13 straight in MLS. Rafael Navarro and Damion Downs also made their CITY debuts off the bench. And suddenly the rest of the league is paying attention. After beginning the season with six losses and only one win in its first ten games, CITY has climbed all the way to No. 4 in the latest MLS Power Rankings. But there isn’t much time to celebrate. Portland is next.CITY closes its Pacific Northwest road trip tonight at Providence Park against a Timbers side coming off a wild 5-4 win over Minnesota United. Portland enters 9-10-4 with 31 points, but they’ve been considerably tougher at home, posting a 7-3-2 record at Providence Park. CITY owns a 3-2-2 advantage over Portland across seven previous meetings in all competitions. And there’s another lineup problem: Wallem actually HAS to sit this time.He’s suspended tonight because of yellow-card accumulation. So, what does Damet do? ⚽ Does Rafael Navarro make his first CITY start? ⚽ Can you possibly sit red-hot Simon Becher? ⚽ Does Carlo Holse start again? ⚽ Can Mățan slide out wide after his huge Vancouver performance? ⚽ Does Totland move sides? ⚽ Could CITY switch to a back four? ⚽ How aggressively should Damet rotate with Minnesota and the U.S. Open Cup coming quickly behind Portland? Bright and Kev break down the suddenly deep CITY attack, the lineup options created by Navarro and Downs, and why having too many players who deserve minutes is a much better problem than the one CITY had a few months ago. Fourteen unbeaten. A statement win at Vancouver. New attackers arriving. And another three points available tonight. Can CITY keep this thing rolling in Portland?🎙️ CITY SC Posse Ep27: We Owe Wallem an Apology: CITY Stuns Vancouver & Portland Is Next NFNPPOD.COM

    CITY SC Posse - Ep26: CITY Went All-In: Navarro Is Here, Vancouver Is Next, & Wallem Must Sit

    St. Louis CITY SC went all-in at the transfer deadline. Now comes the hard part: figuring out who actually plays. CITY made the biggest move in club history, acquiring Rafael Navarro from Colorado for a club-record $12 million and giving the 26-year-old Brazilian striker a Designated Player slot. Navarro arrives with 38 MLS goals, including 10 this season, and immediately becomes the true No. 9 CITY has been searching for. But he wasn't the only addition. CITY also brought in 6'4" USMNT forward Damion Downs on loan from Southampton and added 22-year-old midfielder Charles-Emile Brunet from Nashville, suddenly giving Yoann Damet a lot more options heading into the stretch run. So what happens now? Simon Becher has scored in four consecutive matches and leads CITY with 11 MLS goal contributions. Carlo Holse just scored his first CITY goal. Navarro has to play. Downs gives CITY another completely different look up top. Do we finally see two forwards? Does Becher slide underneath Navarro? Does Holse finally start? And most importantly... Conrad Wallem has to sit.Yes, he picked up another assist against Dallas. But after another rough overall performance, Bright has seen enough. Kev isn't convinced Damet agrees. Then it's on to the biggest test yet. CITY takes its 13-match unbeaten run north of the border to face first-place Vancouver at BC Place. The Whitecaps enter 13-4-4 with 43 points, an 8-2-1 home record and one of the most dangerous attacks in MLS. CITY is still looking for its first-ever win at BC Place. But Vancouver also played a Canadian Championship semifinal on Wednesday, so can CITY take advantage of the shorter turnaround? Bright and Kev break down: ⚽ The $12 million Navarro signing ⚽ Damion Downs and CITY's suddenly crowded attack ⚽ Whether Becher and Navarro can play together ⚽ Why Holse needs to start ⚽ Why Wallem needs to come out of the XI ⚽ Vancouver's dangerous attack and first-place form ⚽ CITY being given only a 14% chance to win ⚽ What a road draw would mean ⚽ And whether CITY can actually steal all three points Plus, we go back to the infuriating 3-3 draw against Dallas. CITY led 3-1 after 64 minutes before conceding in the 81st and 90+7th minute, turning what should have been three huge points into one. We get into the substitutions that never came, the controversial handball, seven minutes of stoppage time, officiating frustration and why this absolutely felt like two points thrown away. Predictions: Bright: 2-2 draw... but only if Wallem sits. Kev: CITY 3-2. 🎙️ CITY SC Posse Ep26: CITY Went All-In: Navarro Is Here, Vancouver Is Next & Wallem Must Sit NFNPPOD.COM

    GTA VI: The $2 Billion Video Game | NFNP 2x30

    Could Grand Theft Auto VI really be a $2 billion video game? Rockstar hasn't confirmed the final price tag, but high-end estimates have put the total cost of developing and marketing GTA VI near $2 BILLION, potentially making it the most expensive entertainment production ever created. Bright and Duds dig into what could possibly cost that much, from more than a decade of development and hundreds of thousands of animations to an absurdly detailed open world designed to make fictional Florida feel almost real. And somehow... Rockstar may still make the money back ridiculously fast. We compare GTA VI's massive investment to GTA V, Red Dead Redemption 2, Hollywood's most expensive movies and even the Burj Khalifa. Plus, GTA V has already sold hundreds of millions of copies, GTA VI will start at $80, and analysts expect Rockstar's next game to generate billions. But there's another problem nobody warned us about: We're not 25 anymore. How are guys with jobs, wives, kids and actual responsibilities supposed to find 80-100 hours to finish this thing? Bright is already considering PTO. We also look back at just how different the world was when GTA V arrived in 2013, debate whether making GTA too realistic could actually make it less fun, argue about physical games disappearing, somehow wander into the correct order for watching Star Wars, and remember when video games didn't require scheduling meetings with your own family. Then it's Local in the Lou: 🏒 The serious story involving Blues prospect Matthew Mayich and the ASU workout that left him hospitalized 📺 The Blues' new local streaming deal through Amazon Prime Video ⚾ Stan Kroenke is buying the Los Angeles Angels because apparently owning half of professional sports wasn't enough ⚽ St. Louis CITY SC spends big on Rafael Navarro and Damion Downs at the MLS deadline And we debut the first official: ASK DUDS ANYTHING: BITCOIN EDITION ₿Listener questions this week: Can Bitcoin be manipulated just like fiat currency? And... If we still need dollars to buy groceries, pay our mortgages and determine what Bitcoin is worth, is Bitcoin actually money yet? That leads into Bitcoin supply versus price manipulation, whales, custodians, cold wallets, FTX, government intervention, fiat inflation and whether Bitcoin could ever become something people actually price everyday life in. Plus Labor Day plans, the Four Seasons, Gordon Ramsay, river weekends and the usual completely unnecessary tangents. 🎙️ NFNP 2x30: GTA VI: The $2 Billion Video Game Join the Posse at NFNPPOD.COM.

    City SC Posse - Ep25: CITY Can Pass Dallas: 12 Unbeaten, Löwen Gone & Holse Time

    CITY and FC Dallas enter Sunday night with the exact same record and the exact same number of points. Somebody has a chance to separate themselves. St. Louis CITY SC is riding a 12-match unbeaten run across all competitions after knocking off Houston 2-1 at Energizer Park, but the celebration came with another major roster change: Eduard Löwen is officially headed to San Jose. Bright and Kev break down the Houston win, Simon Becher's opener, Dante Polvara's late winner, Roman Bürki's big saves and what CITY showed against one of the West's best teams. Then it's all about Dallas. Should Holse finally get the start? Does Marcel Hartel's old role become his? Is Tomas Ostrák better as a weapon off the bench? And can CITY take advantage of a Dallas team coming off a 5-0 loss to Vancouver? Plus, Bright goes bold with a 3-0 CITY prediction, Kev calls 3-1, and we dig into the Löwen trade, what CITY actually received and what might still happen before the transfer window closes. 🎙️ CITY SC Posse Ep25 Sunday, Aug. 30 St. Louis CITY SC vs. FC Dallas 6:00 PM CT | Energizer Park NFNPPOD.COM

    Want the St. Louis OnlyFans story? Jump to 28:17. Bitcoin is ripping again, so Duds starts us down the money rabbit hole and somehow we end up discussing fiat currency, investing, GameStop and a $20,000 refrigerator. Then we get into TLC’s new St. Louis-based Double Lives of Suburban Wives. Former teachers, suburban parents, adult-content careers, student loans and some absolutely wild money. But that leads to the bigger question: did America go from one household income, to two incomes, to needing a third? We break down the side-hustle economy, why millions of Americans are earning money outside their primary jobs, what people are actually using that extra income for, and whether the modern side hustle is about survival, lifestyle or escaping the 9-to-5 altogether. Plus: our original PlayStation 3 side hustle, DoorDash economics, Six Flags St. Louis getting a new identity, Savannah Bananas, Venmo, Lake America and why the Great Lakes acronym is apparently now SHAME. 🎙️ NFNP 2x29 Chapters 00:00 Bitcoin Is Back, Money & Investing 28:17 Double Lives of Suburban Wives 52:08 The OnlyFans Boom & The Third Income 1:03:07 Our Original Side Hustle: Flipping PlayStation 3s 1:26:33 Around the Horn: Six Flags, Savannah Bananas, SHAME & More Find everything NFNP at NFNPPOD.com Like, follow, subscribe and join the Posse.

    City SC Posse - Ep24: CITY Escaped KC, But Houston Is the Real Test

    St. Louis CITY SC is still unbeaten, but the feeling after Kansas City w/ Houston looming is weird. Bright and Kev break down CITY’s frustrating 1-1 draw at Sporting KC, a match that technically earned a road point but emotionally felt like a loss. They discuss Kansas City’s 18 shots, CITY’s lack of attacking rhythm, Löwen’s deflected free-kick goal, Becher earning the foul, Sang-Bin’s crossbar chance, Wallem’s rough rating, Durkin’s yellow-card suspension, and why CITY was lucky Sporting KC still cannot finish. Then the focus shifts to Saturday night at Energizer Park, where Houston comes to town sitting at the top of the Western Conference and riding a five-match shutout streak. With Durkin out, Löwen likely dropping deeper, and Holse and Mățan pushing for bigger roles, the guys debate what lineup changes Damet should make and whether CITY can bounce back at home. Plus: betting regrets, corner kick chaos, babysitter problems, and a 2-1 CITY prediction that may or may not be fueled by optimism, denial, or the home crowd. Join the Posse: NFNPPOD.COM
