The All right, everybody, welcome back to Sam's Army.

We've got a special bonus episode for you that was originally released last week on the Patreon,

where we'll be dropping a lot more stuff like this, and Tommy's tactical blogs are already flowing. The Sam's Army Discord chat

is going 24-7. There will be a lot more episodes, interviews, et cetera. So basically,

if you've been listening or following along with Sam's Army over the past however many years, we would love to have you subscribe to the Sam's Army Patreon and support the growth of the pod.

But without further ado, on to this week's special bonus episode.

All right, everybody, welcome back at Sam's Army for this week's bonus episode, where myself and my immaculately quaffed partner in crime, Tyler Terrans, are going to have a little sit down, a little meeting of the minds, if you will, with someone who I think a few of you might know.

And by a few, I mean every single one of you.

It's a big thanks to the recently minted head coach and chief soccer officer of the Chicago

Fire, Greg Burrhalter.

Thank you for joining us.

Greg.

How are you doing today?

Well, doing well.

Good of the same.

Great to see you, Greg.

We appreciate it.

And, you know, I know that there's a lot of change going on in your life right now, obviously moving from international football to club football. You've got the sporting director title as well.

You're in charge of player acquisition. But I have to imagine the biggest item on your plate right now is probably your elite and legendary Nike shoe collection.

Now you're working in an Adidas league. How is that whole thing going to go down? Are there donations going out? Do you need my address? How's that whole transition going for you?

It's complicated, but it's a fight. I'm still with 90s. Okay. Hopefully no panels in the suit.

Awesome. Now like I said before again, I'm a Chicago fire season ticket holder.
