"That has always been our mission from Day 1: This atmosphere needs to be a party."

This one is near and dear to our HEARTS.

We are lucky enough to be joined by two co-chairs of the supporters group of Portland, Maine's professional soccer club.

Ever since Portland Hearts of Pine was announced, Dirigo Union has been on the ground working to build excitement within the community.

And boy, have they created something special.

Donald Thibodeau and Mitchell Ketchen give us a behind-the-scenes look into Dirigo Union; from the early days, to what's happening now, and a glance into the future.

"It has to be Maine. It has to be community driven."

If you would like to become a member and get involved, you can listen to this podcast and also find out more information on the Dirigo Union Supporters Club website.

You can also follow them on X and Instagram.

And as always, you can follow us on ⁠⁠X, ⁠⁠⁠Instagram ⁠⁠⁠and ⁠⁠⁠YouTube ⁠⁠⁠to get all the great and exclusive content you need.
