Cruz Azul at home? Postponed. A trip to Estadio Azteca? Grounded. Turning the Timbers into toothpicks? Delayed. But it's going to take more than a worldwide pandemic to keep Filly and the Scarf from recording our latest episode!Welcome to Episode 89, Podcasting While Social Distancing. Keeping a standard 6-city distance away from each other, Scarf is home in Lawndale while Filly sets up shop at world-famous Filimonster Studios to record our first episode since COVID-19 reshaped our collective reality. You may hear a few minor audio issues while we work out the kinks of recording remotely.There's still plenty of LAFC-related talk to be had! Did an MLS defender throw all the other MLS defenders under the bus while also talking smack to Carlos Vela? Did Marco Ureña really sign with a newly promoted K-League side? And what part does Niko Hämäläinen play in this episode?Filly and the Scarf also take a second to remember Jeffrey Ghazarian, a member of the Black and Gold family who lost his life to COVID-19. Finally, on this episode, you'll hear some of our opinions on this strange new normal that we are all facing in light of the coronavirus pandemic. We may be two outspoken, goofy, shooey-consuming podcast hosts, but we also understand how important it is that we all come together in these extremely trying times. We can only hope that by sharing our thoughts with all of you, we can weather all of this together. One big Black and Gold family. We'll be back to Defending the Banc soon enough, but until then, stay safe, stay healthy, stay home, and thanks for listening to Defenders of the Banc!
