COG STUDIOS, Calif. -- The LA Galaxy held their first media availability of 2023. And there were a lot of takeaways to discuss. Plus, have you heard about a boycott? AEG has its hands full on this one. And they probably can't blame anyone else but themselves.

On today's show, hosts Josh Guesman (LA Galaxy Beat Reporter) and Kevin Baxter (LA Times Soccer Reporter) discuss all the latest club news and why Dejan Joveljic is only half the man he was last year. We'll explain. 

The guys will discuss all the news nuggets Greg Vanney dropped in his media availability. That includes discussions about Douglas Costa and Sam Grandsir. Could both be gone? Could both be back? Why did Vanney have some strong words about Costa and wanting to play in Los Angeles?

Could the Galaxy be relying on Jalen Neal on defense? Maybe they're focused on another young designated player? And why does Vanney think he's got 2-3 good moves to make?

Plus, Josh and Kevin want to talk about the Supporter's Groups boycott of the LA Galaxy season. They want Chris Klein gone. So why did AEG bring him back when they didn't need to? And what is a solution that allows everyone to walk away, saving some face?

Is this a staring contest? And if so, who blinks first? Why could Herbalife and AppleTV be big players in a resolution?

We've got a lot to talk about. And as we approach 1,000 shows (show 999), we're glad you've been around for the ride!

AEG, Galaxy, and Supporter Groups in a staring contest? Vanney gives updates on everything.

Today's a special day for me friends,

I haven't released an original in almost a year. I realized that although I was garnering support from some of the greats that I looked up to, like Armin, Tiesto, Above & Beyond, etc; none of it mattered, because I found myself doing something that wasn't me. I was chasing trends, instead of trying to set them. I was trying to remake tracks that had already been made. I wasn't pushing myself creatively. Of course it's hard to do something different, but I think that's why I was scared. I was scared of failing, and I was comfortable. It's easy to do something people know, people like, something people have already embraced. It's hard to challenge yourself, take a risk, and continue to believe in yourself no matter what comes about. 

I think I made close to 50/60 original tracks till I made something that was so different but so cool to me. That track was Get It On. A friend of mine, this INCREDIBLE writer Jake Warren, sent me this vocal chop with a deep house track, but I heard something that had more soul to it. I started messing around with it, and in a hotel room in Austin, where I was stuck because of some crazy hurricane, I made this track. I couldn't believe it, but it felt special, it felt different. And i wasn't in a big fancy studio, I didn't have my keyboard or anything. I had my laptop and my headphones, and I felt outstanding. What transpired that day changed everything for me, for Jenaux. I had a new vision, a new direction that was me, that felt like me. I didn't have to drag tracks into my projects anymore and try to see how I can remake that person's lead, or synths, or anything. I just went with the flow, and confided in myself.  After that day, I tested this track out for the first time at Give Thanks in San Jose in November, and the response was UNREAL. I knew i landed on something special. It's since been an enormous part of my sets.

The problem with doing something different creatively, I feel like people are inclined to hate, or tell you that you shouldn't because it's not what's typical, or familiar. Well let me tell you this, you do you, you trust yourself, and surround yourself with people who believe in you, who will support you no matter what. That's key. And then try and push yourself creatively till you can't go any further. Battle your mind with positivity. Seize your inner artistry.

Anyway, I really hope you guys dig this track, it's the beginning of something special. I have so much more in store for you, already ready to go. Praying that you guys stick with me on this incredible journey. Thank you all for the support in the past and the future.

Much love,

Eugene
