"Kinnear, party of one!?" This week, we're joined by two guests with one mutual connection: The Constitution State. First, our Elland Road correspondent and favorite US export Val León recaps her experience at last week's Leeds United Supporters Trust meeting with suits Paraag & Angus and hero Lucas Radebe. As you can expect, Paraag was as polished and corporate as ever, Angus seemed to be hanging on for dear life, and Lucas was there to distract the supporters from the 49ers' pending gentrification of Elland Road. Then, Jon Morisset joins us to talk about the new LUFC Connecticut group he co-leads with Val, plus his affinity for sports teams in red (not in football though!) and the pure madness that is running ultra-marathons. Ever go for a run when the sun was down, then up, then down again, and back up before you stopped running? If you haven't, Jon will tell you all about what it's like!

#7: Reid Sundblad - LUFC Seattle
This week, Reid Sundblad joins us from Seattle to talk a bit about the Burnley defeat and the usual fallout in Leedsland that seems to always come following a defeat. Bo and Simon take dead aim on the Farke haters before we sit down with Reid to talk about the incredible work he's doing in the Emerald City. From his first taste of Leeds United with his brother, to a memorable weekend at Elland Road, to stepping up to lead the Seattle Whites, Reid touches on all of it.

#6: James Tourville - LUFC Knoxville (TN)
This week, James Tourville joins us from Rocky Top territory to talk the international break, Jesse Marsch calling his shot, what American college football is like at tiny ol' 98,000 seat Neyland Stadium, and some hard-hitting Brenden Aaronson coverage (but not too hard, he's delicate.) Plus, Bo has a classic 90's hip hop track burned into his brain, Simon tries to convince James to name a beagle after Mateo Joseph, and Jimmy attempts to school a youth.

#5: Matt Driver - LUFC Mexico City
This week, Matt Driver joins us from the shadow of the Estadio Azteca to discuss the close of the transfer window and a solid 2-0 win over Hull City. Matt then relives a lifetime of family memories spent at Elland Road with his father, and shares some very personal stories that will make you sad and make you smile. He remembers being schoolboys with James Milner, and the time Kemar Roofe called him a nobhead in front of a bunch of kids. Plus, maybe the 49ers ARE listening... and we remember Sol Bamba.
