Welcome to Off the Pitch — the official Sporting Kansas City podcast and your go-to source for everything Sporting KC, MLS, soccer, and Kansas City culture. In our very first episode, we’re keeping it real: meet your hosts, Blake Aerni (the voice of Sporting KC) and Marika Davis (in-stadium host at Sporting Park), two Kansas City natives who are bringing their group chat energy straight to your earbuds.
We’re talking about why we built this show, what makes KC unlike any other city in America, and what’s coming up this season — because there is a lot. Whether you’re a die-hard Sporting KC season ticket holder or you’re just discovering soccer ahead of the FIFA World Cup this summer (less than 100 days away!), this podcast is for you. We’ll bring you behind-the-scenes access, KC culture deep dives, player interviews, and the stories that never make the highlight reel.
