Corner Of The Galaxy

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy have once again been thrust into national and international attention. But there's no Zlatan Ibrahimovic goal, or a practical joke on David Beckham to blame it on this time. In fact, there isn't even a Galaxy player who's at the center of this one. That's right, we're going to talk about Tea Katai and how she probably just ended the Galaxy career of her husband Aleksandar Katai and why it's effortless to argue both sides of this. Today, hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira, are back to get you updated on all your Galaxy news. That includes the return of MLS and a ratified Collective Bargaining Agreement. And that's no small feat. Major League Soccer and the players came to an agreement on everything with the threat of a lockout hanging over their heads. Will that have a lasting effect on players? You bet it will. MLS has some bridges to mend. Plus, what special prizes will

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- What do you know? A podcast about soccer when the entire world is locked in a battle for equality and is fighting off a global pandemic? We get it. To say that the LA Galaxy or sports are a priority right now is a lie. But there's news to cover surrounding the league, and we'll do our best to keep you updated. But our thoughts, much like yours, are elsewhere. On today's show, host Josh Guesman will be joined by LA Riot Squadcast host Chris Tucker. These two friends cover all the latest news surrounding Major League Soccer's rejection of the most recent player offer while simultaneously threatening a lockout. Somewhere along the lines of seeking compensation from a global pandemic, the owners and the league ran off the track. But can they get it back on track before things are damaged forever? Plus, we wish some Galaxy players a happy birthday, running off on tangents at every moment, and co

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- MLS seems focused on a shorter Orlando Tournament, and we know the players are getting ready to respond to it. Does that make sense? Would it appease all the big-name stars? On today's show, your hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are bringing you the latest Galaxy-talk. And on this episode, that includes rocket launches, kickball techniques, and a look at middle school Hammer! The guys will start with the introduction to small-group training and why it's still no soccer when soccer is expected to be played soon. Can the Galaxy even get this approved? And what good could come of it? Plus, Major League Soccer seems content with small groups, fewer games, and a shorter time frame for the Orlando tournament. And the date to get to Orlando has shifted as well. But MLS isn't doing this because they think the players were right. They're doing it because they believe the timing lines up for a re

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- You know all the information we've been relaying from reliable reporters covering the league? Well, Don Garber and Major League Soccer aren't happy about us talking about them. That's right, in an environment that is devoid of live sports, MLS is angry that they're getting attention as they pick their way through all the problems of restarting the league. On today's show, your hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter need to touch on a bunch of relevant information. That includes some details about how MLS plans to get back to soccer, and why the league might be missing some of it's biggest stars! The guys will start by telling you about the fourteenth missed game of the season, and why MLS is quickly running out of "postponed" games. What does that mean for Season Ticket Members? Then it's all about Commissioner Don Garber's insistence that no one talks about Orlando. Apparently, the first ru

Podcast: Could Galaxy head to Orlando Tournament without Chicharito? by Corner Of The Galaxy

COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- Major League Soccer seems to have some momentum behind it's proposed plan to get all teams to Orlando by early June. But the biggest surprise of the re-opening story probably came from California Governor Gavin Newsom. Could pro sports, and the LA Galaxy be back to the west coast in just a couple of weeks? On today's show, your hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter, will dive into all the latest Galaxy and league news as the ever-changing picture regarding the restart of the league kicks into high gear. The guys will start by discussing the week ahead for the Galaxy and why a long weekend should have meant a trip to Rio Tinto Stadium for a game against Real Salt Lake. Instead, the Galaxy published the first pictures and video of individual training at Dignity Health Sports Park. Did everyone arrive back in tip-top shape? Of course not! That's not how any of this works! Then the guys will continue the conversation around the mini-tournament that might occur in Orlando, and the negotiati

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- Are we all starting to go crazy? Has this last week been extra hard? And because of that, are we beginning to create a little bit of hope in soccer finding a way to continue? Plus, we have the only quotes from the first day of LA Galaxy Individual Training at Dignity Health Sports Park. On today's show, your hosts Josh Guesman and Sophie Nicolaou are discussing the significant updates surrounding a possible restart of the league. There are a million little details that can all fall short if no one is paying attention, and there's some belief that it might be an impossible task to get all 26 teams to Orlando in just a few short weeks. Josh and Sophie will discuss the many different interesting angles to the Orlando proposal but start you off with some El Trafico reminiscing and some Season Ticket Holder information. Will you get your money back? In other big news, Josh got a haircut, and b

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- On Corner of the Galaxy, we like to celebrate the little victories. And today, on a show that features LA Galaxy Defender Dan Steres, we're celebrating the end of April and the beginning of a new month. Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are back to walk you through a bunch of pressing league and Galaxy topics, while also welcoming Dan Steres back to the show for the first time since 2016. Steres will talk about quarantine life, getting a new puppy, and what players think about games behind-closed-doors. The issue, as it's very clearly put, is much more difficult to comprehend than simply putting teams in one hotel and hoping for the best. Dan will also talk about not getting to play much in the preseason and not making it to the Galaxy's first two games. And how that is giving him some hope of being 100-percent when the season finally does kick-off. But Josh and Eric have some topics of

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- On today's show, we're joined by LA Galaxy General Manager Dennis te Kloese. Dennis stops by for a lengthy chat that includes talking about quarantine life with his family, Cristian Pavon's future with the Galaxy, and so much more. Hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter take a step back as Dennis talks about the development academy and what it's like trying to write a transfer handbook during a global pandemic. Plus, why uploading pictures of food might be driving us all crazy! This is a great peek into what is going on with the Galaxy's most powerful front office man and how he sees things going forward with MLS and the Galaxy even while acknowledging that everyone's pocketbooks have been negatively impacted. To close out the show, Josh and Kevin will discuss three big names in world soccer and why you can never really count the Galaxy out of the conversation to sign any of them. We wa

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are back on another Thursday night to bring you 60 minutes of Galaxy-talk to get you through yet another week of quarantine. But today is a big day. And that's because we're unveiling the results from our Best Galaxy Team Ever bracket, and we're joined by a man who played for both Galaxy teams in our final, LA Galaxy defender Todd Dunivant (GM for the Sacramento Republic). Josh and Eric will start with the latest extension to Major League Soccer's Training Moratorium and once again explain the issues with MLS doing anything but waiting. Following that discussion, the guys will talk about the great deals that came from all AEG properties supporting the Mayor's Fund and why that means you could have bought a Gyasi Zardes Bobblehead for just $5. Then, Todd Dunivant calls in to tell us why the fans got it all right when they voted for the Best Galaxy Team

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- Major League Soccer put out a new press release and basically admitted that a 34-game season isn't likely. To which, we all say, "duh!" But a shortened season means another problem. Should there even be an MLS Cup? Or will the Cup come with the biggest asterisk in sports history? Hosts Josh Guesman and Eric Vieira are back to discuss the latest twist and turn from MLS and their navigation of the COVID-19 pandemic. But they've got some help this time. Joining Josh and Eric is former LA Galaxy Player, President, and General Manager Alexi Lalas! Lalas makes his return to CoG after being a guest and a guest-host many times during the shows 12 seasons. The guys cover some ground when it comes to different formats the league could take and talk about what changes the Galaxy may have to make in a transfer window that is totally up in the air. But if you want positives, there are plenty of those

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- Over at Corner of the Galaxy, we're not going to let a simple lack of live soccer keep you from enjoying your team. And tonight, we welcome one of the true legends of the club, former LA Galaxy Goalkeeper, Kevin Hartman. To start it off hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter start you off with the latest from Major League Soccer and the Galaxy. They'll discuss the extension of the training moratorium. Still, more importantly, they'll explain what the other major leagues around the United States are thinking and why they're focusing on rapid testing. Plus, Josh and Kevin will look into a meeting between the major sports leagues and the President of the United States and why Governor Gavin Newsom will have something to say about the President's optimism. And before it's all over, Josh will give you an exciting interview with Kevin Hartman that covers the Galaxy Academy, a professional women's

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The guys are back with their first Live Show since the quarantine started. And to kick off a new chapter in the show, they're joined by former LA Galaxy defender Sean Franklin!

First, the guys will bring you the latest in the training moratorium and tell you what their thoughts are on a round-robin, World Cup-type group setting for a shortened MLS season. And they once again approach the subject of moving all the teams to one place to play games behind-closed-doors. Would a game without fans seem weird? Or would anything at this point be better than nothing? The guys will also get you updated on voting for the Best LA Galaxy team ever, and how you can help settle the debate. But the real importa

COG MERCHANDISE (SCARVES, T-SHIRTS, BUTTONS, COASTERS): http://www.cornerofthegalaxy.com/SHOP COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- How optimistic are you that the LA Galaxy are going to play this season? How would a season even look at this point? And remember, it's only been about three weeks, so we've got some room! Hosts Josh Guesman and Kevin Baxter are back to talk about the hurdles Major League Soccer faces when, and if, they restart the league this year. Will they have to move teams to South Dakota? Could the quarantine everyone in a couple of hotels and play games like crazy? Or will the league have to navigate hot spots and a patchwork of government regulations? We'll give you our best guesses at how they do all of that and what a respectable timeline looks like! Plus, Josh will update you on a brand new Galaxy initiative that will have you staying at home, but hopefully entertained! Finally, Josh will talk with Galaxy defender Nick DePuy. DePuy will speak about growing up a Galaxy fan, and what it means to
