We caught up with Sam Rogers while he was with the United States national team in Los Angeles.

We talked about that journey and how he's enjoying life in Norway.

Note: This is the first of what will become a regular series of interviews. This is available to all subscribers, but we'll likely start releasing extended cuts for paid subscribers through Substack in the next few months.
