S5E44: Happy 5th Birthday!

Rabbi and Red banter about the MLS Twitter backlash to Wrexham getting hyped. We break down preseason as much as we can. Then we talk about the three new signings.

Hello Colorado Rapids fan! On this episode of Holding The High Line, it's our birthday! Five years ago today we recorded the pilot episode of the pod in Rabbi basement back on Lincoln. We banter about AFC Wrexham getting hyped by ESPN in ways MLS never was. We go through the Rapids three preseason friendlies in Mexico and what little takeaways we can gleam from them. Then we analyze the signings of Connor Ronan, Andreas Maxsø, and Alex Gersbach.

During the episode, we discuss an old article Matt wrote about possible MLS themed ESPN 30 For 30 documentaries. You can read that here.
