Listen in the appFC Cincinnati defender Alvas Powell joins the show to talk about his journey from Jamaica to becoming one of the fastest players in MLS—and yeah, we had to ask if he’s actually the fastest in Cincy and what would happen if he raced Speed. He breaks down his career, the transition to MLS, and how his role has evolved into the dynamic outside back fans see today. Having been part of multiple eras, Powell gives real insight into how much the club has changed and what fans might not see behind the scenes. We also get into the 2026 season, what’s gone wrong, why there’s still belief in the locker room, plus the Denkey celly vs Tigres, locker room personalities, and more. To close it out, he shares advice for young players, a message to fans, along with an international break update and a quick look ahead to New York Red Bulls.
