Peter and Thomas open this week's show with the Canadians Abroad Mailbag, featuring Tajon Buchanan, Richie Ennin and some questions regarding the September window for Canada's World Cup qualifiers. Should John Herdman rest Alphonso Davies, Jonathan David and other big guns against the U.S. to preserve their fitness, or should he roll with his best available XI for every match? The guys answer all of this, plus some queries regarding Canada's MLS teams and hold the Great Canadian Soccer on TV debate.
