D.C. United marches ever closer to the playoffs, and Filibuster is always here to talk about it. But Jason, Adam, and Ben are trying something new this week! Today, you will be getting our review and analysis of D.C. United’s 1-0 win over the Portland Timbers, including the performance of the offense, the defense, and the refereeing crew.

Then, on Thursday, we will publish our interview with Mark Kastner, an editor over at Sounder At Heart, where we preview United’s upcoming visit from the Seattle Sounders. If you support us on Patreon at any level, you can get that episode today; if you are not able to, it will go out to everyone on Thursday.

Let us know what you think of splitting the episode across the week, and please give both a listen!

D.C. United took a week off, but Filibuster never does! With the news that RFK Stadium is likely to be torn down by 2021, Jason, Adam, and Ben bring on Devon McTavish, former United player and current color commentator on FloSports, to talk about memories of RFK from a player’s point of view. We also ask Devon about the upcoming game against the Portland Timbers and the performance of the team.

Speaking of Portland, in the second segment we bring back Will Conwell from Stumptown Footy to bring us up to date on all things Timber. Give it a listen!

D.C. United can’t find any points against the Vancouver Whitecaps, but they must press on and so must Filibuster. Jason and Ben are here to break down the Whitecaps game, and we sent Adam to the wilds of the National Radio Quiet Zone (or something like that). We talk about D.C. United’s offensive woes, the fact that they almost had their Best XI available and what that means for who want want to see playing, the problems at defensive midfield in this game, and our review of Ema Boateng and Ola Kamara’s first action.

We ask him about Aaron Long’s transfer saga, Brian White versus Bradley Wright-Phillips, the team’s inconsistencies, MLS disrespecting the Atlantic Cup, Kaku, and more. Give it a listen!

United’s 4-1 win against FC Cincinnati that didn’t quite feel that impressive as well as the late-breaking loss to Atlanta United.
