#353: Joe Machnik joins the podcast

From playing on fields of crushed cinder in the German-American
League to broadcasting World Cup games from Qatar, Joe Machnik
has pretty much seen it all. A few days before his 80th birthday,
he joins for an interview to discuss the builders of American
soccer, the 1990 World Cup, what exactly a handball is, how MLS
teams disposed of those clocks that were used to count down the 5
seconds given to a player for a shootout in the early days of the
league, and much, much more.
