Grant interviews two longtime friends from his teenage days (at 23:37): Angie and Chris Long, the owners of the new NWSL team in Grant's hometown of Kansas City. They explain why they wanted to invest in the NWSL, what their plans are for the team and reveal that they want to build a new women's soccer stadium in the Kansas City area.
Before that, Grant connects with Chris Wittyngham to break down Columbus's big win over Seattle in the MLS Cup final and discuss what the firing of Dortmund coach Lucien Favre could mean for Gio Reyna and potentially replacement candidate Jesse Marsch.
