Defenders of the Banc

Episode 110 – 2 Charas, 1 Cup (feat. Connor and Jerry of 110 Football)

 

Episode 110 is here, and, like the actual 110 Freeway, this one meanders a bit. With no LAFC game to chat about, and with the Filly birthday episode on the horizon, Filly and Scarf go down the rabbit hole of topics. Our athlete of the podcast is a goalie, but he plays hockey. We talk college football, Syracuse basketball, our sad, sad Metropolitans, and so much more. But don’t worry, we talk LAFC and other soccer (but no Patriots!). 

For Episode 110, we also bring on Connor Kalopsis and Jerry Reynoso, the lads over at 110 Football, a budding media conglomerate with a small crew and big dreams. Previously able to make it work with just a producer, director, director of photography, editing and sound crew, and maybe a show runner or two, they have now added a few mega-stars of LAFC lore, the incomparable Vince La Rosa and former LAFC captain Benny Feilhaber. 

This 17-year old duo Zooms with us about a wide range of topics: both of their first times meeting each other, what goes into a production of 110 Football, their thoughts on the Covid Cup, the Champions League, and their aspirations for the future. Please stick around until the end to hear about an amazing project Jerry is spearheading called L.A. Saga, as he looks to empower teens and help them get their foot in the door in the many avenues of journalism. 

Episode 111 and Filly’s 40th are on the horizon, so be on the lookout for another episode soon as we get ready for the restart of the 2020 MLS season and celebrate the big 4-0!
