  1. This podcast is a great workout companion, especially this episode. Tim and Julian’s thoughts on developing as players and people really gave me a boost in morale!! Keep it up boys!

  2. What a podcast! Always excited to listen. Never watched Zealand before this podcast started, but I see why he is a successful streamer. I have been a fan of Julian for quite some time back since the DC days. Keep it up! (Also please consider me for the signed ball 😊 me and my four kids would display it proudly!)

  3. I just started getting into soccer because all my brothers watch it. I only watch the Miami games. My little brother told me to comment so I am 😆 let’s see if we win 🥇

  4. I absolutely love this podcast. It’s actually the first one I’ve ever listened to. I have to admit this is my first full season watching mls. I started last year when Messi came to town and haven’t missed a game. I’ve always been an avid soccer fan (playing, coaching, watching national teams, kids names are Landon and Mia) but couldn’t get in to mls. I’ve grown to love the guys on the team and enjoy watching them every week. The podcast gives a little peek in to the team, mls and soccer in general, plus the insight of the guests who come on the show, which is awesome. If I weren’t already a Miami fan, I definitely would be swayed bc of JG24! What a guy!

  5. Really enjoy the content of this podcast. Julian is the team MVP of the season. He played most of the games and supported the team in different roles. Goals are the result of a team effort. Just clutch all season. Good luck in the playoffs.

  6. Gressel has quite the trophy cabinet, he is an astonishing player. Always showed up when was needed and without a doubt had an impact on Miami winning the supporters shield. Hope to see him more on the field. Arriba la familia!!!

  7. Really enjoy this podcast. We are huge Inter Miam fans. Gave my grandson a trip to watch a game for his 12th birthday. We flew down Saturday April 20th from Rochester, NY, saw you beat Nashville (awesome) and flew back Sunday morning. I think we were in Ft. Lauderdale for 15 hours but had so much fun. Planning another trip next year. Keep up the good work.

  8. My son is a hug soccer fan & watching Inter Miami with him really got me into soccer too! It has really been a huge bonding time for us. Thank yall for this podcast and thank you Julian for sharing your experiences with us 🩷🖤

  9. the youth set up of the states is super interesting might be a good idea to have a member of the miami team that went through it on to talk about it more in depth.

  10. What a great episode! Being from ST. Louis it did hurt a bit to hear that Tim wasn't even given a call. Looking forward to seeing him when he returns to City Park in November.

  11. Julian, I’ve always wondered what Messi smells like after a game? How does the most ballon dors in history and a World Cup smell like after 90 minutes?
