We're getting into the holiday spirit here at the AMPU studios. And beside decking halls and trimming trees, that also means wrapping seasons. Join Paul, C, and E as they reflect on how far the Union have come in only one year and on all the great things to be festive about: the Kai-Tai, Dave Leno, the Larimer, and 100+ episodes! And finally, the AMPU crew concludes the season with a possible rival to the Christmas classic, Die Hard.

Happy Holidays, everyone! We wish you all the best in the New Year! We truly appreciate you all and we'll see you next season! GO UNION!

Hallo und willkommen! With St. Nikolaus Day falling on the same day as the MLS Cup Final, things are getting a little Germanic at the AMPU Studios. Without the invaluable guidance of Paul this week, C and E try to hold the fort (and set up a Whamageddon-safe space) as they ponder the pressing questions at the threshold of the conclusion of the 2025 MLS season: With the signing of Ezekial Alladoh, is Damiani finally free from the dollars/goal stat? Who are the Golden Girls equivalents on Inter Miami? And: Do they know it's MLS Cup at all?

Happy Birthday, Scoops!

Well, here we are.

We're working through the five stages of grief at the AMPU studios this week. And wherever you are in the process, join Paul, C, and E as they reflect on the Union's unceremonious end to their otherwise stellar season, explore the hypothesis of the 5th-Game Theory, and ask the question, "Is anyone really afraid of the Union?"

Let's be sad now. Let's be sad together. And then we can be a gosh-darn goldfish.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

Nate is back! The long-time FOTP returns to the AMPU Studios this week, bringing the swagger! Join Paul, C, E, and Nate as they reflect on what lies behind and what lies ahead for the Union, wonder how NFL-y the new MLS season schedule might become, and delve into the connection between the local game commentators and the Dark Side of the Moon.

Our newest motto: Rarely confident, often hopeful.

Hey. How's it going? With no games to report on and with a little too much time on our hands, things get a little Funky Bunch-y at the AMPU studios this week. Join Paul, C, and E as they celebrate Carnell's well-deserved honor, ponder the potential season schedule change, and review the best-named derbies in MLS.

Say hi to your mother for us.

Things get a little Shakespearean this week at the AMPU studios, much to the chagrin of the resident (but absent) literary expert, Christy. Join Paul and E (as they manage without the sage guidance of C) as they talk about the Union's efficient winning playoff strategy, empathize with Jeff Gal and his "Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Vey Bad Day", and suggest a new approach when it comes fan taunts and chants during games: Don't be crude, be creative.

It's the season of fun and frights, goodies and ghoulies! And at the AMPU Studio, we're making sure our pumpkin patch is as sincere as possible as the Playoffs are officially underway! Join Paul, C, and E as they discuss why Indy is an artist both when scoring and when celebrating, C's ability to affect the Space-Time continuum, and why Jack Elliott still makes Philly proud. Also: a special post-credits stinger where the AMPU crew deep dives into the Ocean's Trilogy, sequels in general, and C's possible new podcast.

If a tree falls in the woods and no one is there to hear it, does it make a sound? If a team loses a game and it doesn't change anything, is it really a loss? We're venturing ever-so-slightly out of the shallow end of pool this week at the AMPU Studios. Join Paul, C, and E as they reflect on Ale's possible last start and captainship with the Union, recount the fun-to-say clash of Chu Chu v. Zaha, and discuss how this season's MLS Playoffs are just as MLS-y as previous ones.
