Show Notes
DJ Taylor wants you to know that his skills extend beyond the pitch. The 24-year-old Minnesota United defender has shown promise since joining the club last season, but he also has his own clothing label, Venci, which he has big plans for in the near future.
We spoke to Taylor about the best-dressed players on Minnesota United and the vibes in the locker room (00:53), the grind of playing in MLS (09:15), his experience in Spain with several youth academies (18:16), the origins of Venci (26:57), mental health and sports (30:00), and his pregame playlist and love for Drake (35:23), before Julio puts him on the hot seat (47:00).
