Pete McGinty didn't know what he didn't know when he first spoke to Morgan Hughes about the #SaveTheCrew movement, and he immediately became fascinated by it. The rest is history, as McGinty discusses his latest book, "Accidental Heroes: The Grassroots Movement that Helped Save the Columbus Crew" (27:19). But first! Newcomer Grant Lillard comes on to discuss his background and pathway to Columbus, from a kid growing up in the Southwest to trying out for the Chicago Fire Academy in the snow, to meeting "Becks" and now coming to a contender in Columbus (2:34). After that, it's a CLBvNSH preview with Nashville TV analyst and former MLS player Jamie Watson (16:22).
