A Fascinating Story Told Well
I remember seeing all the commercials with Freddy Adu when I was a kid, but then he just kind of disappeared. Grant Wahl picks up Adu's trail and tells the story of how a young prodigy in America faces insurmountable expectations. Good is never good enough and money is always lurking in the background, clouding the real goals. The pod is well mixed and edited, but it really shines because of the interviews, including Freddy Adu himself. This is a must-listen.Read full review »

One episode in, and I am already hooked. Wonderful that Freddy agreed to be a part of this. His story is fascinating.

Love the episodes so far, especially the details and behind the scenes stories of Freddy Adu’s early days at DC United. Great lineup of interviewees.

I love that Grant frequently reminds us that Freddy was only FOURTEEN YEARS OLD! It is so abnormal for a child to have the pressure that Freddy had placed upon them. Fantastic pod thus far, with great insight from Freddy himself and lots of his closest confidants!
