The AnfieldIndex USA era kicks off in heartfelt, chaotic and wonderfully honest fashion as new host Ross Carper steps up to the mic for the very first time.
In this opening episode, Ross introduces his journey into Liverpool fandom, his mission to build a thriving American Reds community, and the origins of the Stateside Scouser show. From watching matches at dawn on the US West Coast to creating a local supporters’ hub in Spokane, he shares the relatable, often hilarious reality of being a relatively new Red trying to immerse himself in the club’s history and culture.
Ross reflects on the emotional turbulence of Liverpool’s season, the tragedy that shook the club in the summer, and standout moments featuring Conor Bradley, Dominik Szoboszlai and Florian Wirtz. He also launches his recurring segment “American Idiot”, where he invites listeners to educate him on parts of the global game that still baffle him, beginning with the mystery of why missing pre-season seems to break elite footballers.
The episode closes with a look back at the rough pilot that inspired the relaunch, featuring Ross and close friend David debating fandom, choosing a club, Liverpool’s history, Klopp’s legacy, and what it means to truly commit to the Reds.
