Description

It's a new era for the U.S. women's national team, and it's also a new era for Full Time with Meg Linehan. 
On the first episode back, new podcast co-host Tamerra Griffin and Meg analyzed the names that made the cut, and some notable absentees, from Emma Hayes' first-ever USA national team roster.
To unpack the news that Brazil will be hosting the 2027 World Cup, Tamerra and Meg also discussed how the South Americans secured the tournament and what needs to happen to create a lasting legacy. Can it top the 2023 edition in Australia & New Zealand?
Plus: Listen to interviews with broadcaster Duda Pavao, who helped present the Brazilian federation's bid at the FIFA congress in Bangkok, as well as Kansas City Current and Brazilian national team forward Debinha.
Tamerra and Meg close out with reactions to a shock resignation by Camille Ashton, and a preview of Friday night's mouthwatering meeting between the Orlando Pride vs. Portland Thorns.
HOSTS: Tamerra Griffin, Meg Linehan
PRODUCER: Theo Lloyd-Hughes 
EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Emily Olsen
