World of Concacaf Podcast

With the dust settled for the most part, the guys chat through Copa America 2024 and review Concacaf's performance in the tournament, highlighted by Canada's run to the semifinals with Jesse Marsch. While their coach is doing alright, not the same in other parts as we talk the United States finally firing Gregg Berhalter, Heimir Hallgrímsson leaving Jamaica hanging and the weird situation in Mexico with Jaime Lozano. In the end, we discuss what we learned about Concacaf in this unique tournament.

The biggest island of them all wants in! News broke recently that Greenland has sent a request to join Concacaf after failing to join UEFA. In what we call A DEEPER DIVE, Donald and Eric are joined by Paul Watson of The Sweeper to break down how we got here with Greenland, what to know about The Polar Teddy Bears history, their journey to this point and what we can learn from their recent friendly against Turkmenistan. Is a Concacaf away trip to Nuuk in our future? What happened to those stadium renderings? Are they going to need to join the Caribbean Football Union to do this? We discuss that and much more in this special episode!

Donald and Eric are back with a new CONCACAF LASER FOCUS, this time heading to South America(?) to chat about Guyana. Not French Guiana, the former British one. A booming economy, a Caribbeanish culture and one of the best young goalscorers in the region: Omari Glasgow. Donald tries to stump Eric on REAL TEAM OR FAKE TEAM (26:12).

We’re on the road to Frisco! No really, we’re on the road. On location from the mean streets of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex, we provide a recap of the Nations League semifinals. We also touch on the vibes based economy that is World Cup qualifying and prepare for today’s Copa America qualifiers.

This week we conclude the third edition of the Concacaf Nations League with the Finals in Texas, so the guys chat about the matchups and our excitement for the greatest competition in team athletics. After talking through USMNT, Jamaica, Panama and El Tri, we preview the Copa America playoff matchups for the final two spots in this summer's tournament. Oh, and WORLD CUP QUALIFYING starts this weekend, so we show some love to the Virgin Islands derby and our beloved Anguilla. So much Concacaf action ahead.

Another CONCACAF LASER FOCUS for the pod, as the group takes a look at the island nation of Saint Lucia. After sharing some fun facts involving iguanas, we look at soccer on the island and a bit about Stern John's Piton Boyz in advance of their redemption campaign in World Cup Qualifying. Finally, on REAL TEAM OR FAKE TEAM (19:56), Jonathan makes an admirable run as we've got teams that end in "s" and "z" here.

The group gets together to talk through the big reveal of the match schedule of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. The USMNT, El Tri and CanMNT have their dates and locations, but even without opponents or kickoff times, there's plenty to discuss over two years before the World Cup comes to Concacaf. No, we don't have any ticket information either.

On this episode, we answer your questions and talk Concacaf! Topics include what Concacaf Champions Cup underdogs could make a run  (2:12), whether it's worth reviving the Caribbean Cup (9:20), the best of USMNT's "Camp Cupcake" (16:23) and whether CAF should get an invite to Concacaf's nonsense (25:10).
