Description
Karl Harpur is an Irish writer living in Los Angeles. A huge football fan, he went to an LA Galaxy match in 2012 and never returned because 'MLS is shit!' Fast forward to June 2025 and a chance meeting with an LAFC season ticket holder who convinced him to go to a match at BMO stadium. This is his podcast following his journey from MLS skeptic to die-hard LAFC fan!

Live in-game commentary from BMO stadium as we take on the top of the Western Conference, Whitecaps. I take a field trip to the west side of the stadium and sit beside the LAFC bench as I am joined on co-comms by fellow TSG member Dave Smith.
We chatted about:
- Tafari is a Rolls Royce, Porteous is an F250
- Why we missed Bouanga's goal. (It was Travis from Happy Sad Foot's fault!)
- And the time I first learned about LA's use of the word 'adjacent!'

For the away trip to FC Dallas, I headed to Koreatown and the Headquarters of Tigers Supporter Group: Biergarten. I was joined by TSG members David, Deech and Daniel as LAFC went down to yet another defeat.
We chatted about:
- VAR and if it has run its course
- The Borussia Dortmund effect
- Why do we not have any player chants?
- And how many shots of Soju can one group of lads do?!

I took a trip to an Irish pub Downtown to watch the lads take on San Jose and hung out with some of the 3252 Supporters Groups, namely TSG, Empire Boys and District 9 Ultras. I spoke with Sam and Dave at halftime and Louis popped over for a bit in the second half.
We chatted about:
- The vibe bein' lowkey with the team and fans recently
- Should Aaron Long have been sent off?
- My nephew signing for Irish League of Ireland side Bohemians!
- And is Guinness as good in LA as it is in Ireland!

I was flying solo once in Section 210 until a surprise visitor popped over from the North End to join in the banter as we took on Red Bull New York. Or is it New York Red Bull. Either way, they're still from New Jersey!
We chatted about:
- Picking up random LAFC fans off the street on the drive to BMO.
- The Kids are alright as the injuries pile up.
- I learned a little bit about Igor Jesus upon his return to first team football in over a year.
- Halftime Thoughts from the NE Concourse with fans.
- And we couldn't help ourselves bringing up the weather here in LA again!
