    The Curious Case of Jared Odenbeck

    Goose is joined by Jared Odenbeck who currently plays for Stumptown Athletic which is a member of the National Independence Soccer Association. Jared played for the Charlotte Independence in 2017 before making the move to Sweden to continue his career. The interview centers around Jared's curious career, what he's learned playing around the world, and what it's like to be a professional footballer on hiatus due to Coronavirus. I highly recommend reading the linked article below about his time playing for a 4th tier Swedish club.
