This week Tommy and Ben catch up on the latest in Iran negotiations, react to Keir Starmer's resignation, and continue to celebrate World Cup fandom.First they walk through the text of the US-Iran memorandum of understanding — because now it's clear why Trump didn't want anyone to see it. The guys break down everything Iran got, including sanctions relief and billions in unfrozen assets, compared to the very vague assurances the US received that Iran won't build a nuclear weapon and will keep the Strait of Hormuz open. Then they go over the latest negotiations in Switzerland, disagreements over what was agreed to, and why the war in Lebanon remains the biggest threat to its success. Across the pond, British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has announced his resignation after Andy Burnham's decisive by-election win, setting up the UK to have its seventh prime minister in ten years. The guys also dive into Israel's increasingly close and diplomatically fraught relationship with Somaliland, and Colombia's razor-thin runoff election, which was won by a right-wing candidate who calls himself “El Tigre.” And finally, the World Cup remains an absolute joy — Ben and Tommy go over some of their favorite moments like underdog Cape Verde holding Spain and Uruguay to draws, Scottish fans taking over Boston and Miami, and Uzbek fans riding into a Houston stadium on horseback. At the end of the show, Ben speaks to Washington Post columnist Rana Ayyub about the Cockroach Movement in India, and how the war with Iran has spilled over into the country's politics.For a closed-captioned version of this episode, click here.

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros kick off the show with six spicy World Cup predictions that could either make them look like geniuses or get them roasted by fans. Alexis predicts that Canada will fail to beat Switzerland, Kylian Mbappé will break the World Cup scoring record and England will advance despite failing to hit top gear. Christian counters with bold calls of his own, including Cape Verde reaching the knockout rounds, Uruguay crashing out of the tournament and Lionel Messi starring in Argentina's final group-stage match. Next, The Cooligans preview the USMNT's final group-stage game against Türkiye and debate how Mauricio Pochettino should approach what feels like a glorified friendly. Should Matt Freese keep his place? Does Christian Pulisic need minutes to stay sharp? And can Gio Reyna play his way into the starting lineup for the knockout rounds? The guys also discuss Folarin Balogun's likely summer transfer and make their cases for AC Milan and Barcelona as potential destinations. To wrap up the show, Christian and Alexis react to Cristiano Ronaldo's historic two-goal performance that made him the oldest player ever to score a World Cup brace and the first player to score in six different World Cups. They also break down England's frustrating draw against Ghana and explain what changes the Three Lions need to make moving forward, before previewing the latest action in Group C as the tournament heads toward the knockout stages.

As a record-breaking heatwave continues in western Europe, the United Nations has warned that fossil fuels are driving a climate crisis. France has endured its hottest night in more than eighty years and temperatures are expected to climb above 41C. Spain, Italy, Germany and the UK are also sweltering. Also: the European Union issues single-day visas to a Taliban delegation to attend a migration meeting in Brussels, despite not recognising the government in Afghanistan; the US Secretary of State Marco Rubio heads to the Gulf for high-stakes talks with Arab allies; a major ransomware attack in Romania forces a hundred hospitals offline; Sri Lanka battles its worst dengue outbreak in years; a new study suggests people may be biologically ageing faster than previous generations, raising questions about a rise in early-onset cancers; and we look at the economic impact of Cape Verde's remarkable run at the mens football World Cup, as the tiny Atlantic island nation enjoys global attention.The Global News Podcast brings you the breaking news you need to hear, as it happens.

Iran Now Costs $80B! Giannis Antetokounmpo to Miami. Will Trump Jinx World Cup Fever? The MAGA machine is cracking. Tucker Carlson — a 35-year Republican defender — just announced he won't support the GOP in the midterms. Marjorie Taylor Greene piggybacked within hours. Shawn Ryan, Joe Rogan, and others have already signaled the same. So what comes next? A more extreme Republican spinoff? A fake-independent rebrand in the RFK Jr. mold? A Tucker run with Tulsi Gabbard? Paul Rieckhoff delivers a hardcore Tuesday solo briefing on what the fractures inside Trump's base actually mean heading into the midterms — and why the angry middle has to be ready for what's coming. It's also primary day in New York, Maryland, and Utah — and more than 5 million independents are locked out of elections they pay for. Paul breaks down the math, the public polling showing 40% of New York Democrats aren't really Democrats, and which governors are stepping up on open primaries and which ones are ducking. Plus: the Pentagon quietly asking Congress for an additional $80 billion to cover the real cost of the Iran war that Hegseth told you was $29 billion, the Giannis trade shaking up the NBA, and why little Cape Verde at the World Cup is the kind of Cinderella story this exhausted country needs right now. -WATCH full video of this episode here. -Visit Kalshi and trade on anything.

Also: Pakistani and Qatari mediators say the first round of Iran-US talks in Switzerland have ended with encouraging progress made.

In this episode we discuss the Premier League fixture list which was released late last week, as that's about the only Arsenal related news there is at the moment. Then attention turns to the World Cup and some of more interesting results, not least small nations like Curacao and Cape Verde producing excellent results against more storied opposition. We also talk about how the ad-breaks are being viewed by fans but unfortunately not enough people with stature in the game are scathing enough about them, the first of a kind red card for Miguel Almiron, before we answer questions about the left-hand side transfer plans this summer, whether we need to sign a striker and what kind of profile that player might be, some of the punditry on US television involving Thierry Henry, whether £100m+ is the going rate for a Premier League midfielder, and lots more. Well, some more. We did our best!
