The crew looks back at the tie against Charlotte and forward to Portland

International Break Down
We're coming off a late draw at Houston and heading into a Rapidless, MLSless weekend. But big news broke today as the Pids signed Coach to a three year extension.

Away to L.A. (2022) Season Opener
We have a lot to look forward to this year, and a lot to mourn from last year. Following a fantastic season for the Rapids some fan favorites have dearly departed and some future fan favorites have suited up...such is the turnstyle life of sports fans. Our credibility guy Brian saw the team in...

Where's Kei Kamara? Where's Kei Kamara
Oh, and on Thursday, Marco had a couple questions for the Rapids media...

The Rapids Swing Like a Pendulum Do
We're up!!! We're down... But then again, so is the entire damn league. Such is 2020 Let's talk an historic win at Rio Tinto, and a Rapids loss in Frisco. Then it's on to a double dip in California. Will the Rapids swing in time with the pendulum or can we eek out six points in the next week?…

Blazed and Confuzed
Well, Colorado is on fire, California is on fire, Oregon is on fire and Brendan just can't keep straight who the Rapids have been playing in the last two games. With the near impossibility of local viewing of our Pids and the charcoal in the air, we're all a bit blazed and confused these days....
-
Weak 6
In the spirit of 2020 lasting a thousand years, we look forward this week to Week 6 of the regular season. That's six weeks of league soccer in about as many months and naturally, it starts off with a Rocky Mountain Cup match. We discuss the merits of the rivalry amongst fans, player, and even…

Take My Money, KSE
With the abbreviated season just around the corner (for the Rapids), we fans are left once again in the doghouse with no real viable way (depending on your personal financial situation) to support our team. In this episode we offer Stan and Josh K. some reasonable ways to allow us to pay them…

What's Next?
The Rapids are out of the #MLSIsBack Tournament in grand fashion after a draw to MNUFC brings them short of glory. So What happens next in 2020? Your guess is as good as ours, but unfortunately you don't have a microphone and a free podcast publishing account and we do. So here's all our thoughts...
-
That's a Wrap(ids)
And just as quickly as it started, the Rapids are headed home. The result of tonight's match with MNUFC can still matter, providing there's some sort of a regular season following the tournament. If the Pids pull off a win they will enter 2020 with 9 points and a shot at a respectable recovery.…

Half-Life
So, the Rapids choked on Sunday night. Not to be outdone by the team, your Rapids-centric podcast choked equally bad. The first half of the show (recapping RSL) has been lost to the sands of time. We now join our podcast already in progress. Enjoy the preview of SKC.

Orlando Is America's Florida
We meet in studio ahead of the #MLSISBACK tournament to talk some sense into the MLS. Does this tournament need to happen? Does anyone else get the feeling that money is trumping human well being? We don't know, but people on twitter claim to. People on twitter know everything. Brian had the…
more -
Tourna-quet
MLS is racing to be the first major sport to resume play...but as a tournament contained entirely within the city of Orlando. The details are still forthcoming but it sounds like it'll be a two week knockout competition in the sweatiest part of summer. The players and staff will have to be...
-
No Info FC
Another footy free week like every other footy free week. We migrate to various areas of our houses to complain again about the absence of soccer in the world. Well, to be fair there's some Budesliga and something about Sex Dolls in South Korea? Brendan is up on all the erotic news around the...
-
Hail Rats
Another week of an indefinite number of weeks in quarantine and we're relegated once again to technology that vastly flies over our heads. Brian interviewed Cole Bassett about his life in sequestration and tries desperately to tell us about it...it takes him awhile. He's so easily distracted. We...
-
Zoom Zoom
We take a modest step forward with technology this week and chat via Zoom, cuz that's what all the cool kids are doing. Without #Rapids96 news we talk future of the season and that of other sports either ongoing or coming up. It's all speculation, of course, but we ponder a life without soccer, a...
-
Technical Isolation
This week the least technically savvy group of podcasters, dare I say, In the world, try to cast from our own individual homes. We catch up with each other on our isolation activities and talk about our picks for the #Rapids96 All Time XI. Thank you for bearing with us through the doubly rough...
-
Quarter Life Crisis
The MLS is 25. The Rapids are 25. It's about time for that quarter life crisis. With the league being suspended along with the rest of life in America, and likely the world, maybe--I haven't really checked--the John Mayer prophecy has been fulfilled. As always us victory in the home opener last...
-
Season of the Worthy
The Rapids came out of DC with three huge points to start the decade and are well on their way to living up to the hype of this new regime. We talk that fantabulous stoppage-time win and look ahead to an even more promising home opener. This team might just have found that elusive chemistry…

BONUS Robin Fraser Interview
Before you settle in for the MLS Season Opener, get current with the latest interview with Coach Robin Fraser.

Foresight Is 2020
Preseason is wrapped up and the Rapids are back in Colorado where they belong...for a bit. Well, they're gone now, but they had been home this week to wash their socks before heading to the nation's capital to take on DC United in the 25th season opener this weekend. We say a respectful "Aloha"…

Crimson Days
The end of the beginning is neigh. As the Rapids wrap this preseason jaunt to California up and return to the performance enhancing snow of the great state of Colorado, Brendan and Brian discuss an uncharacteristic win for the Burgundy Boys and look ahead to the season to come. As always, thank…
more -
Pre Seasoning
Happy Valentine's day #Rapids96. The team has been hard at work in California scrimmaging and exhibitioning...and losing...as per usual. Everyone always says not to take preseason too seriously, but as we've been saying since we started in 2016..."Can't we just win once in a damn while?"…
more -
Rapid Enthusiasts
This week we begin looking ahead to the Rapids invasion of California. We've got some preseason scouting reports to talk about and what to do if you wanna see the Pids on your computer. Thanks for joining us again. please rate and review us on iTunes...we have a reputation to overcome. Cheers
-
Provident
Happy New Year Rapids fans. It's good to be back talking about the team, and we picked a good week to return. The club has made some important moves wooing talent to Colorado, but will they be as successful wooing fans back to the Dick? Let's talk everything from acquisitions to frustrations as…
more -
Appendix-itis
It's been a whole month and a half since we at the CurrentPod have casted. Naturally, there was a lot of catching up to do. This episode is kind of like a bonus for anyone who actually cares what we've been up to over the holidays. If you don't care about our Christmas's and New Years's and...
-
Keeping Current
It's been a month and a few things have happened with the Rapids. Where in the world was Cole Bassett training, how's the back line changed, who's in, who's out? We talk some Rapids alum from both players and coaches that have moved onward. Why the hell is Nashville in the West? It's all on the...
-
Finally the Final
The MLS Cup final is nearly upon us and we sit around avoiding picking a winner for almost an hour. Eventually, though, we ran out of Rapids stuff to talk about and everyone but Brian picked right. Cheers to the 2019 Season
-
Octoberfest
Brendan and Brian fill the offseason void with some chat about Rapids players of Christmas Future. Who will we see leave the Burgundy behind, and how do we build a team around those left that can keep up the clip we started last month? Thank you all for your support this season. We'll be back...
-
End Of Days
The Rapids have closed out another season without making the playoffs. We do give the whole "Rapids Way" thing a rest this time, but we still have plenty to say about the state of the club. Thanks for spending the season with us and we'll be back in two weeks with our new normal for the off…

Pod Error 303
The Dick was the setting of Tim Howard's final home appearance for the Pids, and he went out in typical Secretary of Defense style...Defending. A well earned clean sheet and a three point victory over Dallas has put the Rapids in an obtuse playoff contention position as unlikely as the chance at...
-
Tim-pacted
A lively show this week as we analyse the impact of Tim Howard on the club and its attendance over the last three years. Did the FO squander his notoriety? Or did they get the best bang for their $6 Million bucks? Brian went on the road to witness SKC in person and tells us all about sleeping in...
-
Spice Rub
The Current crew talks TFC; what they saw, heard or was told about the game before turning the focus to the BBQ battle that is the Rapids and the Wiz...err Sporting KC. Are Rapids strikers cursed & is anyone else having a bad year like Benny Feilhaber? All of this and more...
-
Home Going
Three consecutive wins. Two at home. Now Robin Fraser takes his wrath to his former club, Toronto FC. The wins will keep getting sweeter for the #Rapids96 new gaffer (a title he's on his way to earning, btw). A double header week for the Pids hosting and beating both Seattle and LAG gives us as...
-
Altitude Sickness
A first time win in New Jersey happened last weekend. And on the debut of Head Coach Robin Fraser. You can be forgiven if you missed it as Altitude TV has been dropped by most cable providers here in Colorado forcing all you into the Soccerless depths of hell that us proud cord cutters have lived...
-
Eggs, Scrambled. Salads, Tossed
What can we say. We went, we tried, we lost. Another fruitless sojourn to the dark side of the Rockies started off a respectable spectacle and ended a Rapids-esque disappointment. The Starting XI is a painful reliving of another lost Rocky Mountain Cup year, and Brian gets his two cents in too…
more -
The Rub and Tug Cup
Joined once again by Marco Cummings, we start off bellyaching about yet another draw that feels like a loss in Hotter-than-Hell-Houston. Hey, we think "Feels Like a Loss" would make a great new Rapids slogan. This leads us into basically crumbling into little snotty pieces over the spilt milk of...
-
Shark Week
Wow. What a game to discuss this week as the Plague addled Dick was the stage of one of the Rapids' greatest goal fests ever. A 6-3 rout over the Montreal Impact is in the books and the Pids look ahead to a familiar foe. This time it's a grudge match and a home field attempt to settle the score...
-
Sacre Blues
We're joined this week by self-professed Soccer Whore Marco Cummings of MLS and ProSoccer.com. The starting XI has us looking in depth, at a dud of a performance in San Jose. Has the Casey Era already lost its luster or is there something else going on mentally with the former new-look Rapids. We...
-
Wagons West
In the Starting XI we look back on a troubled NYCFC match in Commerce City. We talk Seb Anderson's heroics and he-low-ics and the maturity of even the best teenage pro soccer players. Could the Pids be falling back into another spell of bad luck? Is it time for that ol' PTSD to hit us fans? Or is...
-
Welcome Back, Rat Pack
This week the Current starts with a look back at a Portland away draw that feels a lot more like a loss. Despite some outstanding Timbers goalkeeping, the Burgundy Boys should-a, would-a taken all three points from P.P. Park. A long sought after Arsenal friendly finally takes place at the Dick…

The Dream of '11 is Alive In Portland
C38's Dave Wegner joins us in studio this week to discuss what may have possibly but not definitely have been the longest game in MLS history. The longest Fourth of July game anyway. We then look ahead to the Rapids away match against the Timbers this weekend. It's likely to be a hard fought…
more -
Battle of the Sacked Managers
We're getting in just under the wire for the annual Tim-dependence day bash. This year we face the New England Revolution, a team that mirrors ours in a lot ways. They started the season off rough and got better by shit canning their manager, just as the Pids have done. We compare and contrast…

Beware of Anthony Hudson
This week we get you current on the Rapids disappointing draw in Vancouver last Saturday. How did they squander a two goal lead at BC Place? The biggest positive we took away, Zac MacMath ate some crow after spouting off to MLS about the match. Next we address a rumor, or rumour, that Newcastle...
-
Vancouver BC
With the international break we found ourselves getting a little up close and personal for the first half of this cast. We relived the New Mexico United US Open Cup match briefly, but hey, who can remember over a week ago? Next up, we look ahead to Vancouver in Vancouver. The hackley named...

Getting Current
The Voice of C38 has taken their ball and gone home. Brendan, Matt, and Brian have rebranded the podcast you already tolerated in small doses and have named it "Current". Thanks for following us to a new platform, we will try to improve all the areas of the old cast that just weren't working and…
