  • #538: Evan Ratliff on USMNT fandom, AI voice clones, Brek Shea
    Sep 25 2024

    Journalist Evan Ratliff joins Belz to talk about his fascinating new podcast, Shell Game, which has some poignant USMNT-related moments in it. He also expresses his affinity for 2011 Brek Shea, talks about going incognito to a WC qualifier in Salt Lake City when he was doing the famous WIRED vanishing act, and explains how he thinks the USMNT is in need of a couple Clint Mathis or Jermaine Jones-style characters.

    Here's the Grant Wahl story he referenced: https://grantwahl.substack.com/p/on-the-doorstep-to-doha?r=1ggkr&utm_campaign=post&utm_source=On%20the%20Doorstep%20to%20Doha&utm_medium=ios

    And here's the link to Shell Game, which I do recommend: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/shell-game/id1753117762
