TIMESTAMPS: 00:00 - We're live to tape in Wilson 04:00 - USMNT takes coming in hot 13:00 - Possible development fixes for soccer 33:00 - Housekeeping 39:00 - Carolina Panthers Camp Preview 1:11:00 - Warbirds GM David Lawrence 1:27:00 - Gordon Miller 1:39:00 - Hey Joe The smell of hot dogs, cold beer, and mid-summer day baseball is in the air. Joe Ovies and Joe Giglio pack up the studio gear and hit the highway, broadcasting live from the spectacular, brand-new downtown Wilson Ballpark as the Single-A Wilson Warbirds treat the 252 crowd to some afternoon minor league action. The guys lead off the show by handling the post-mortem on the U.S. Men's National Team exiting the World Cup. While the reactive national headlines are dripping with standard hot takes, Joe and Joe dive into some institutional issues affecting the sport in this country. Is a Round of 32 ceiling simply as good as it's ever going to get on the global stage? The guys question whether the entire American pay-to-play youth system needs a radical, grass-roots infrastructure overhaul if the country ever wants to develop elite, homegrown difference-makers. Then, the "offseason protocols" get a major jolt as NFL training camps loom just two weeks away. Because the Carolina Panthers are playing in the annual Hall of Fame game, they get a massive head start on the rest of the league. Mike Kaye, NFL Insider for the Charlotte Observer, jumps on the podcast to break down the crucial roster battles and what to actually expect from camp. Finally, we celebrate local baseball evolution as Wilson Warbirds General Manager David Lawrence joins the microphones. David shares the fascinating logistics of moving the franchise away from Zebulon's historic Five County Stadium to plant roots in a cutting-edge, highly walkable $70 million facility right in the heart of downtown Wilson. The guys talk about the massive shift in minor league infrastructure expectations and why this brand-new ballpark hits it completely out of the park for Eastern North Carolina.
