Why is it now okay for the United States Soccer Federation to have two coaches, one coach of the

U.S. women's national team, one coach of the U.S. men's national team, with this vast disparity

when it comes to pay. So, Hello Sunchen I'm Alexi Lollis and welcome the State of the Union

podcast. We look at the beautiful game on and off the field through the lens of

red white and blue-colored glasses. This is a very special show, an interview with J.T. Batson, the CEO and the Secretary General of the United States Soccer Federation.

I wanted to talk to him and he certainly has been in the news as has the United States Soccer Federation that he presides over with the hiring of Mauricio Pochtino.

We talk a little bit about that, but also some bigger picture issues both on and off the field as it relates to the United States

Soccer Federation now and certainly into the future. I always enjoy talking to JT. He's a really interesting

person in soccer right now and I think he's gotten a real eye-opening experience when it comes to his leadership with the US United States Soccer Federation. So without further ado, I hope you enjoy our interview with J.T. Bats.
