The Faces

Jordan Angeli

AngeliJerseyTalent

After returning to the club in 2023, Jordan Angeli will continue to serve as a face of the club’s content on Apple TV, hosting a weekly podcast as well as her feature series ‘The Journey with Jordan Angeli’.

The first season of the ‘The Journey’ launched in 2023 and highlighted the stories of Rapids players in a fun, casual environment, such as making traditional French cuisine with brothers Kévin and Rémi Cabral. Episodes of the series will be available every other month on Apple TV under the ‘Presents’ channel starting in April. Each show will feature an in-depth, off-the-pitch look at life with Rapids players and coaches.

Launching ahead of the 2024 season, Angeli will also play host to the weekly Colorado Rapids Podcast with co-host Drew Moor. The audio-video show will have in-depth analysis of every Rapids match and feature exclusive guests each week.

Previously, Angeli was named the first full-time female TV Analyst in Columbus Crew history in 2020 and worked with their broadcast and in-house media teams for three seasons, including calling the 2020 MLS Cup.

A former professional player in the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL), Angeli featured for the Boston Breakers (2010-2012), the Washington Spirit (2014) and the Western New York Flash (2015).

In 2024, fans can also see Angeli as a match analyst for NWSL matches on CBS Sports Golazo Network.

After making his transition away from the pitch in 2023, Colorado legend Drew Moor will be back in front of the camera in 2024. 

Moor will feature in a multi-faceted role that includes host and analyst appearances on Apple TV, Altitude Radio and at DICK’S Sporting Goods Park on matchday. The former defender will continue to be a key face of the club’s Apple TV content including hosting a second season of ‘The Moor You Know’ as well as his role as a leading voice on the Colorado Rapids Podcast each week.

“The Moor You Know” launched in 2023 and followed Moor as he explored different facets of the Colorado soccer community. The series began with a hike in Boulder, joined by Rapids legend Marcelo Balboa. For the remaining episodes, the MLS veteran spent a matchday with supporter group Centennial 38, had his name added to the club’s Gallery of Honor and explored the Rapids Academy ‘Homestay’ program. In 2024, “The Moor You Know” will feature episodes every other month starting in March, which can be found exclusively on the ‘Colorado Presents’ channel on Apple TV.

Alongside Angeli, Moor will co-host a weekly audio-video podcast launching in February. He’ll bring unparalleled analysis and insight along with top-notch dad jokes. 

Finally, Moor will serve as the lead color analyst for select broadcasts on Altitude Radio.

Moor retired from the league in 2022 with two MLS Cups, including one with the Rapids in 2010. The former defender played 18 seasons overall including 10 in Colorado and claimed a Supporters’ Shield and three Canadian Championships along with his two MLS titles.
