We've seen greatness and not-so-greatness over the first two weeks of the season. Perhaps the real test will be against a team FC Cincinnati has managed to best even during their absolute lows.

Toronto FC come into town with two difficult losses under their belt, but they need one more road tilt before their home opener. The Reds have managed to clear their books of two difficult contracts, only to pull in Josh Sargent, the American striker Cincinnati had been pursuing in the past.

We talk with Jeffrey from the Toronto 'Til I Die podcast to get his thoughts on the second year under head coach Robin Fraser. How does this squad operate under some of the U.S. national team's bigger pieces? And speaking of national teams, how do things look in the Great White North with the World Cup on the horizon?

Time to break out the winter scarves for this weekend's first big away trip to the chilly confines of Saint Paul.

FC Cincinnati makes another heralded trek to Minnesota United, hoping to stitch multiple solid performances together. The Orange & Blue have left their history in the past, winning their last two visits to Allianz Field and leaving all memories of their worst loss ever in the snowdrifts.

As much as Cincinnati has kept their roster primarily constant in the offseason, the Loons have endured a very turbulent winter with a roster that looks quite different. The promise of superstar James Rodrigues has been tempered with the uncertainty of new head coach Cam Knowles, but the first match at least brought a point back to their home opener.

We talk with Dan from The Loony Bin Podcast to analyze the roster shifts and expectations. Can Minnesota alter the trend of Cincinnati taking the wins? Will we hear "Wonderwall" or "Mr. Brightside" after 90 minutes?

With the midweek win done and dusted, we can finally focus on the meat and potatoes of the MLS regular season! Just two months away from competition feels like a hunger strike, especially after watching That Team From Florida enjoy all the fine dining last December.

FC Cincinnati heads into Season 5 under Pat Noonan with some big statements to make, but let's not forget that this weekend's opponent experienced bigger disappointment after promises of gold. Atlanta United brought the band back together by rehiring their best conductor, Tata Martino, to helm the sidelines. What can we expect out of the "5 Stripes" with a similar roster and a more familiar head coach?

We've brought in an old friend to the show, Tyler Pilgrim from Scarves & Spikes, to set the table for Saturday. Can Atlanta bring back the golden days of the 2010s and get back on the medal stand again? What will the Starting XI look like under Martino's guidance?

One week until meaningful soccer and the launch of a promising FC Cincinnati season!

We enter Year 11 the same way as last season, with the Orange & Blue leaving the country for CONCACAF Champions Cup coverage. Soon enough, the MLS season also starts with designated players Evander, Miles Robinson, and Kevin Denkey leading a talented roster.

But what are we really looking at? How promising and hopeful are we that this roster can use consistency and build from last season's hard work? We ask the FC Cincinnati radio broadcast team, Tommy G. and Kevin McCloskey, what they think about this roster and the long road ahead. (And perhaps a bit about the big tournament this summer!)
