On this July 4th, the AMPU crew try to stay positive as Paul, C, and E discuss the imminent failure of the Turn-around Trifecta. To help, we go to unexplored corners and invite friend and New York Red Bulls fan, Mark, to provide some perspective. Desperate times call for good friends and sage advice. #FIXIT

Happy Birthday, America!

This week, the Union and the AMPU crew find themselves in the doldrums (if you're like E and don't know what the 'doldrums' are, it's worth a quick trip to Wikipedia) as the team adds another mark in the L-column and continues to plummet down the table. And to further accentuate the listlessness, C and E are left to navigate this week's episode without Paul. But they do manage to find harbor as they discuss confirmation bias, regional barbeque traditions, and the fine line between enthusiasm and delusion.

Was that another orange Subaru...?

Things feel sisyphean at the AMPU studios this week as the Union go up against a "neat" Miami and churn out even more dismal results. Meanwhile, Paul, C, and E try to keep things in perspective as Paul provides a rally cry to support the team, C reminds us that The Replacements have all the answers, and E rues the day Jordi Alba ever came to Subaru Park.

P.S. Fix it.

It's an off week for the Union but not for the AMPU crew as Paul, C, and E welcome We The Union creator, Gabe, to the pod! In this episode, the gang delves into Gabe's impressive Instagram-based, Union news project as well as discuss the extended family that is the Union fan community. Also, they consider the finer details of team rebuilding versus reloading, the Curse of the Union Yards, and the importance of plausible deniability.

There's no up, there's no down, and it feels likes the Union are in some limbo-like state as they drift through two draws against Toronto FC and CF Montreal. Back at the AMPU Studios, Paul, C, and E collectively worry about Damien Lowe's on-field performance, celebrate Gazdag setting another club record, and workshop a new line of retro 70's inspired kits and other fashions that would totally work in MLS.

The Union look to extend their on-the-road undefeated streak as the Boys in Blue travel south to take on Charlotte FC. Back at AMPU Studios, Paul, C, and E discuss the good and not-so-good news about Blake, spin the Wheel of International Call-ups, and workshop a movie version of Spotify.

Is it fixed? Not exactly. But in a welcomed bit of role reversal, lots of good stuff happen for the Union this week as they travel north to take on the New England Revolution. Meanwhile back in the AMPU Studios, Paul, C, and E let the week's victories go to their heads as they analyze Gazdag's new scoring strategy, celebrate potential good news about Blake, and suggest that Jack McGlynn might be the genetic cross between Clint Dempsey and Zinedine Zidane.

It's been a rough week for the Union as they suffer back-to-back home losses, setting club records that no one wanted to see. Meanwhile, the AMPU crew asks the tough questions: Are the Bad Years returning? What's going on with Blake? Can we even work in a Replacements reference?

Fortunately, a furry little savior arrives and we get an exclusive interview with him! That's right, we talk to THE raccoon himself!
