The URFC squad is joined by hometown talent, nail artist aficionado, and the Royals leading goal scorer for today's episode -- welcome Brecken Mozingo to the pod! We have a fun chat with Brecken on what it's like playing in front of her her family and friends every week, what she's finding success with and how she's balancing it all. She shares who could fill in for her at the nail salon and what inspires her pre-game outfits, and provides insight to the team environment and the motivation the team has for the badge and the fans.

We conveniently forget to recap the Gotham game (short term memory loss, sorry!) and instead will focus bigger picture for our upcoming 'town hall' episode sometime during the break. We'll zoom out and hear from listeners and talk through where the team goes here and get some emotions of our chest.

The URFC squad is back to recap the road trip loss to Racing Louisville, congratulate Ally Sentnor on her first international brace with the USWNT, and break down recent roster changes for the Royals. We bid a heartfelt farewell to our beloved Cristina Roque and share updates on Alex Loera’s season-ending injury. We celebrate Captain Paige’s return and Brecken’s continued scoring streak, but despite some bright spots, the Royals remain in 13th place with just five points as we approach the halfway mark of the season.

We also preview the Pride-themed home game this Friday against Gotham FC and hope to keep the goals coming, along with steady improvements each match. Show up and support the team — we’ll see you under the lights. Come on you Royals!
