   The Soccer Odyssey Part 5 - The summer of soccer

   The biggest push for the soccer bus yet. As The Boys of Summer blasts in Justin's headphones, he drives the still leaking bus from Orlando up to the Northeast for the busiest summer of our lives. With the Open Cup rounds now happening further apart, we had a chance to dig into an even wider spectrum of American soccer. Some how, some way, the bus made it to the middle of Manhattan - pulling up alongside Bayern Munich's office at Rockefeller plaza. The Chopped Cheese Classic soon followed, as we helped shut down an entire street in Brooklyn during the Club World Cup final for a full day of music, drinks, and community, with NYC Footy. The crowning moment of the summer happened waaay further North though. The USL2 Championship had all the makings of a monumentous marker for American soccer, and so, we floored it up to Burlington, Vermont to witness two titans of lower level soccer, Vermont Green FC and Ballard FC, battle it out in a match we'll never forget. Oh yea, and we made it over to Portland, Maine for the state's first ever international sporting competition. Up the Hearts of Pine, forever and always. Our spirits couldn't be higher. But, a loud bang and the screech of ripping rubber would soon bring things crashing down...

   Episode #2 - An NWSL record, sub-zero Open Cup magic, and the Adidas Fútbol Society

   The first road trip of the year. This week's episode of the new CLUBELEVEN podcast spans spans quite literally the entire country. Hear what it was like at Boston Legacy's first ever match in club existence, why Pablo was sticking his toes into a hand dryer up in Burlington during Vermont Green's upset of Portland Hearts of Pine in the Open Cup, and how we barely made it to Los Angeles to join up with the Adidas Fútbol Society the very next day. All of that and more, coming at you live from our incredibly humid hotel room.

   The Soccer Odyssey Part 4 - We were ROBBED

   A stolen laptop, a book of arrests, and a DIY investigation. Oh my! Round 4 of the U.S. Open Cup was anything but straightforward. We returned back to Orlando with nothing but uncertainty ahead. Just as momentum was building, it felt as if the lifespan of the bus was shortening with each passing day. Some how, some way though, the bus wouldn't be our biggest worry this round. In what can only be described as a Scorsese-esque escapade, we soon were dusting car doors for fingerprints, tracking stolen goods, and praying for a miracle.

   The Soccer Odyssey Part 3 - The soccer bus is OVER

   Just as quickly as it began, this bus adventure may be crashing to an end. For Round 3 of the U.S. Open Cup, we set our sights on another two-city stop: back-to-back matches in Louisville and Indianapolis. The only problem? The bus wasn't holding any oil. Like, at all. Stranded in a funeral home parking lot in East Nashville, we're faced with a tough reality after a traveling mechanic delivers some of the worst news we could've imagined.

   The Soccer Odyssey Part 2.5 - A foreboding beeping

   Florida here we come! We're riding high after a successful first run with the soccer bus. After a stint up in North Carolina, we return home to the Sunshine State to prep for Round 2 of the Open Cup in Naples for FC Naples' third ever home match in club existence. If you'd believe it, hotels in Naples have plenty of bed bugs too. Afterwards, we plan a weekend hang with a local film lab and begin to look out west to escape the impending Florida heaer. All the while a persistent beeping inside the bus intensifies...

   The Soccer Odyssey Part 2 - Sasquatch is behind me isn't he?

   The Soccer Bus finally hits the road. After an abbreviated planning and renovation period, the bus sets sail on it's maiden voyage. Charting a path from Orlando, FL up through the end of the Appalachian Mountains to North Carolina. This first trip was nothing short of ambitious. Especially considering we hadn't driven the bus more than 30 miles until now... 3 games in 3 days. That was the goal. Document three unique match days from the first round of the 2025 U.S. Open Cup, stopping in Asheville, Boone, and High Point to visit Asheville City SC, Appalachian FC, and Carolina Core, respectively. By the end of the week, the bus had logged almost 1,500 miles, hosted a mythical visitor, and somehow, ended up on a TV broadcast.

    The Soccer Odyssey: TRAILER

    12,000+ miles. A 1998 school bus. And a whole lot of soccer. Join us (Gabe, Justin, Pablo, and Tyler) as we look back at the year that was for CLUBELEVEN. What began as a desire to put out a print magazine somehow ended in a campaign aptly title The Soccer Odyssey. A 140-page collectible magazine starring USMNT player Tim Weah followed by a bus tour for the ages. From figuring out how to insure a vehicle none of us knew how to drive, all the way to marching through the streets of Austin with an armadillo ahead of the city's biggest ever match, The Soccer Odyssey chased every round of the 2025 U.S. Open Cup. Stopping in places like Asheville, Naples, Louisville, Philadelphia, Dallas, while working with organizations like Bayern Munich, Vermont Green, NYC Footy, and Portland Hearts of Pine along the way. Buckle up and settle in, it'll be a long one. 12 hours recorded in one session - talking about all the good that soccer in this country is doing. RELEASING WEEKLY BEGINNING FEBRUARY.
