The Max + Vince Podcast hit the road this week. The guys are out at the MLS All-Star Game in Minnesota. It was a busy few days but the guys found time to record a podcast with special guest Ilie Sanchez from a very secret location.

LAFC has won five straight matches and announced the signing of Denis Bouanga as its third Designated Player. Max and Vince give their impressions of the new signing and what to expect. They also preview the quick homestand against Charlotte FC and D.C. United, as LAFC looks to create even more space at the top of the Supporters' Shield standings. After that, it's off to the secret location at MLS All-Star to chat with Ilie. Connor Kalopsis of 110 Football fills in for Max, who was prepping for the Skills Challenge. Ilie speaks about the honor of playing in an All-Star Game, why he wishes he was in the Skills Competition, and how much he's seen the league grow since he first arrived.
