## Resource

We try to encourage soccer fans after Team USA got blown out by Belgium last night. Hey, at least it's not a sport we actually care about. We look at where it all went wrong for Team USA. Trump weighs in on his involvement. And to keep the semiquincentennial vibes going, we watch videos of Fourth of July fireworks gone bad and eat brisket while we are live on the air. Plus, Cuba goes dark and Iran talks stall.   Find more at http://www.RickBurgessShow.com See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
