In this episode Shireen Ahmed, Brenda Elsey and Jessica Luther talk about the men's World Cup draw. But first they discuss their favorite event hosts and plan Brenda's application to host the Ballon d'Or. Then, they discuss part one of a gazillion in men's World Cup mess with the 2022 draw in Qatar. They dive into the colonial history, confusing governance of FIFA, infamous men's World Cup draw scandals -- including, yes, hot and cold balls -- and the ways human rights abuses in Qatar and all mega event host countries are continually silenced. Following this discussion, you'll hear a preview of Amira Rose Davis and Jessica Luther's interview with Austin FC’s goalkeeper, Brad Stuver. Next, they burn the worst of sports this week on the Burn Pile. Then, they celebrate those making sports better including Torchbearers of the Week, the Australian women's cricket team who just won the Women's Cricket World Cup. They wrap up the show with What's Good in their in their lives and What We're Watching in sports this week. This episode was produced by Tressa Versteeg.
