    Good News: Mallory Swanson scored for the USWNT and the season is almost over | CHGO Stars Podcast
    Oct 27 2026
    At long last, a nightmarish season for the Chicago Stars is almost over. This coming Sunday the team will travel to the nation’s capital to take on the Washington Spirit and look to avoid losing a sixth straight to conclude the year. The losses have continued to pile up as the club can’t get to the offseason soon enough where the real work will begin for Vlatko Andonovsky to overhaul the roster and leadership to work on making progress off the field. But Andonovsky has already been active in the transfer market, and Mallory Swanson scored for the United States Women’s National Team so it’s not all bad… right? Lesley Ryder is back to join Alex in smiling because it’s over and the end of crying because it happened… wait.

    Vlatko Andonovski Is Here To Save the Stars! What's Next for Chicago Stars FC? | CHGO Stars Podcast
    Sep 22 2026
    It actually happened! After his surprising departure from the Kansas City Current, former United States Women’s National Team head coach and two-time NWSL Champion Vlatko Andonovski has joined the Chicago Stars as their new Chief Soccer Officer to lead the organization’s soccer staff going forward. How did they pull this off, and what’s top of the to-do list for Vlatko as he looks to clean up a mess of a team. Speaking of which, a 3-2 victory over Racing Louisville at the end of August remains the team’s only win since July 7th, and they followed that up by becoming the first team in league history to concede 6 goals in consecutive matches. But does the rest of the season even matter? CHGO Stars Host, Alex Campbell is joined by Lesley Ryder to welcome the arrival of Chicago’s new women’s soccer overlord.

  • Sjogren OUT, Donaldson BACK. Stars shuffle staff as poor results continue | CHGO Stars Podcast

    Sjogren OUT, Donaldson BACK. Stars shuffle staff as poor results continue | CHGO Stars Podcast
    Aug 18 2026

    What hasn’t changed for the Chicago Stars: they still can’t win games and even lost to former cellar dwellers Racing Louisville to drop into last place. What has: lots of other things! Martin Sjogren is OUT as head coach along with his top assistant Anders Jacobson. Former head coach Lorne Donaldson is back, not as the coach but as the… director of coaching? Assistant Karina Baez is the new interim head coach, with former Spokane Zephyr FC boss Nicole Lukic brought in as well. How did the Stars end up back in the same place again, and what happens next? Also, despite not having a general manager, the team keeps selling players and signing new ones. Who’s making those decisions and is there any hope for results on the field to improve? Or will the team’s injury struggles make that a moot point? And hey what happened with that plan to build a training facility? Lots of questions, few answers. Such is the existence of the Chicago Stars! Alex is joined by Joe Chatz of On Tap Sports to mark yet another changing of the guard for this beleaguered organization.
