The red smoke rises and so do questions over whether we are playing with fire, and not just the Chicago version. We will preview the Open Cup match Wednesday night with special guest Nick from the Feed The Fire podcast. Then, is Yoann Damet playing with fire with his personnel choices? A look back at not just a disappointing San Jose match and also a triumphant CITY2 win over Ventura County, and does David Critchley's personnel choices foreshadow some lineup choices for Chicago? All that on this episode of Red Smoke Rising!

The red smoke rises and so did the bile in our stomachs and into our throats Saturday as we watched Seattle run away with a 4-1 win. Is lineup stability a good thing or does Yoann Damet need to make some changes? Can he even make changes that would matter with the lack of depth at striker and wingback? Edu Lowen returns and makes an impact, but where will he be making that impact? Is Palmer Ault the best striker in this organization as CITY2 continues to be full steam ahead? All that and more on this episode of Red Smoke Rising.

The red smoke rises as we FINALLY get to talk about a St. Louis CITY win in the Yoann Damet era! We explore what went right against the Revs and maybe some things that could still be improved upon as we have hit our first bye week of the season. Plus a mixed bag Sunday for CITY2 as some big names got some reps in but it didn't result in the big kaboom we thought. And we have a special guest with us this week: Cole Sutton from Inside CITY Limits!

The red smoke rises on a reality check on the Yoann Damet Era in St. Louis. Is San Diego just that good? Doe Simon Becher have the yips? And is Jaziel Orozco the best center back we have? Plus a preview of an equally daunting home foe in Seattle Sounders and a palate-cleansing look at CITY2's romp over the blue folks from kansas. Oh, and Tom and Jake are back!
