About this episode
In 2025, the Kansas City Current has dominated the NWSL and shattered records. So, after topping the standings in the regular season, and lifting the NWSL Shield trophy with a record five games to spare, it's time to go inside the club and find out what has come together to make this team so remarkable this season. On this week's Full Time podcast, hosts Tamerra Griffin and Meg Linehan are joined by captain Lo LaBonta, reigning MVP Temwa Chawinga, general maanger Caitlin Carducci, and team owners Angie and Chris Long to take the listener inside the KC Current and their incredible year blazing a trail atop the NWSL. From what it means to be a Current player and how to gel in the relentless out-of-possession system, to why the team's disappointing end to 2024 sparked new levels of commitment and energy, and to how the club sees itself as a global women's soccer powerhouse on and off the pitch. _______________ Referenced on the show Kansas City Current clinch NWSL playoff spot with 8 weeks to spare After her first USWNT call-up at 32, Lo’eau LaBonta expects nothing, ‘willing to give everything’ KC Current owners Angie and Chris Long expand to multi-club model, purchasing Danish club HB Koge ______________ HOSTS: Tamerra Griffin, Meg Linehan GUESTS: Lo LaBonta, Temwa Chawinga, Caitlin Carducci, Angie Long, Chris Long PRODUCER: Theo Lloyd-Hughes VIDEO PRODUCER: Lia Griffin EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Emily Olsen _______________ Get in touch: fulltime@theathletic.com Follow on Instagram and TikTok: @tafulltime Subscribe to the Full Time newsletter here Visit the Yahoo Women's Sports hub here Hosted on Acast.
