Lori Lindsey Interview; Chris Wittyngham on Soccer News

Grant has lively conversation with Lori Lindsey (at 19:47), who's calling a boatload of games during the NWSL Challenge Cup, which is at the quarterfinal stage. Lindsey, who played for the U.S. in World Cup 2011 and in all three top-flight women's leagues (WUSA, WPS, NWSL), discusses her thoughts on the four NWSL quarterfinal matchups; how she has moved into media with the NWSL, calling MLS games on the Nashville SC local broadcasts and NCAA and U.S. Open Cup games; how she approaches her volunteer gig representing the Athlete Council on the U.S. Soccer board of directors; how she handled the board's discussion of the repeal for anthem protests; and her front-row seat to what her friend Megan Rapinoe had to deal with in 2016 and '17 after she kneeled in protest of police brutality toward Black Americans.

Before that, Grant breaks down the mid-week soccer news with Chris Wittyngham of the Chelsea: Mike'd Up Podcast. They discuss Arsenal's unlikely win over Liverpool, CAS overturning Man City's Champions League punishment, the remaining scenario for England's Champions League berths and the early lessons from the MLS tournament in Orlando.
