Atlanta United’s radio team of Jason Longshore and Mike Conti will broadcast live in person from the team’s road games this season.

The Five Stripes will start their second season at Houston on Saturday. The games can be heard on 92.9 FM.

Radio broadcasts of road games were done remotely from an Atlanta-based studio last season.

AT&T will sponsor a Facebook Live show, “Countdown to Kickoff,” that will air an hour before every home or road game this season. The sponsorship helped pay for the radio team’s travel expenses.

Atlanta United is one of a few clubs in MLS that will have traveling TV and radio crews.
