BALTIMORE – October 28, 2026 – Sinclair’s AMP Sports today announced that Unfiltered Soccer with Landon Donovan and Tim Howard video podcast will return for its third season on November 2. Following a summer that put soccer in the spotlight across North America, US soccer legends Donovan and Howard are back with their signature mix of candid conversations, sharp analysis and firsthand insight into the biggest stories shaping the sport.
Season 3 builds on the momentum of a milestone year for Unfiltered Soccer, which expanded beyond the podcast studio with a series of live fan experiences surrounding the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Through Unfiltered Soccer Live, AMP Sports brought Donovan and Howard directly to fans in Los Angeles, Dallas and New York, creating in-person opportunities for audiences and brands to engage with two of the top players in the sport.
The show’s second season featured an impressive lineup of guests, including NFL star Jason Kelce; outgoing MLS Commissioner Don Garber; former U.S. Men’s National Team stars Clint Dempsey and Carlos Bocanegra; U.S. Women’s National Team head coach Emma Hayes; Mexico’s all-time leading goal scorer Javier “Chicharito” Hernández; renowned soccer broadcaster Rebecca Lowe; Los Angeles Chargers kicker Cameron Dicker; and former Premier League player and manager Phil Neville, bringing fans behind the scenes with personal stories and candid perspectives.
The new season will explore the next chapter for the U.S. Men’s National Team following the World Cup, including its road to this summer’s Gold Cup, the evolving landscape of American soccer, and the growing importance of youth soccer in developing the next generation of talent. Coverage will also span the Premier League, Major League Soccer and the players, coaches and personalities shaping the global game.
“With the home World Cup now behind us, we have an opportunity to dig into the future of soccer here in the US,” said Donovan and Howard. “What we love about this show is that it’s a platform where we can engage with the American soccer fan and address the things that are most important to them. It has become one of the best parts of the week for us when we get together and have conversations about the game that feel fun and exciting. We’ve both been around this sport a long time, and we’ve got plenty of stories and opinions to share. We had a blast last season, and we’re excited to get back at it.”
“With their experience, candor, and chemistry, Landon and Tim have built Unfiltered Soccer into a go-to destination for soccer fans of all levels, bringing them closer to the game and the personalities who shape it,” said Rich Cooke, Vice President of Audio Programming, Sinclair/AMP. “After the tremendous success of the 2026 World Cup, we’re excited to carry that momentum into Season 3, continuing to reach new audiences across all platforms and creating more opportunities for brand partners to authentically engage with fans of one of the fastest-growing sports in America.”
