As I’m fond of saying on podcasts, a hearty hello to you all, and I’m proud to announce that the first episode of my new Internet Radio Hour, Emergency Podcast! (An Austin FC Podcast), is live.
In this first episode — with the concept being to take Verde with a select member of the Austin FC media multiverse each week — I sit down with Colby Gordon of the Austin American-Statesman to discuss a few different topics. We get into the team’s dismal goal-scoring road form, of course, but then fret upon the roster and engage in some shop talk which should satisfy some of your curiosity about the job we do.
Also, Stefan Cleveland made $200,000 in base salary and $217,500 in guaranteed compensation last year, to fulfill a research promise made somewhere in the conversation.
Go ahead and subscribe via Apple, Spotify, Player FM, or I believe you can directly download it at this link.
Or, for your convenience today (but not all podcast release days), listen in the Substack app.
As my friends from Moontower say, “be sure and rate, review, and subscribe,” and I’m curious to know what y’all think as this evolves.

'You can't give up until the door is closed': On another Austin FC home draw that could have been a win (and deconstructionism)
Davy Arnaud and Facundo Torres saw a post-goal moment of exuberance a certain way. We'd like to understand it, but there's a French philosopher in the way (with 10 matches left in the 2026 season).
