## Resource

Matt and Jay are joined by Josh from Retro Screamers, a vintage soccer kit store based in Columbus, Ohio, for a conversation about the culture, history, and obsession behind soccer kits. We talk about how Retro Screamers got started, what makes vintage kits so special, and why collecting soccer shirts connects fans to clubs, players, memories, and eras of the game. The conversation also dives into the differences between British and American soccer culture, how MLS and the Columbus Crew fit into the larger soccer landscape, and what the World Cup means for the growth of the sport. From kit collecting and soccer fashion to Columbus soccer culture and World Cup talk, this episode is a fun one for anyone who loves the game beyond just the 90 minutes.
