Jacob grabs Chris Branch, senior writer at The Athletic and author of The Pulse, to talk about the World Cup as geopolitics. They cover Trump's red-card intervention and the Balogun controversy, England-Argentina and the ghost of the Falklands, why sports and politics were never actually separate, and why China and India can barely qualify while Cape Verde runs wild. Plus: whether soccer ever truly takes hold in America, and why it might take a billionaire treating the sport like a Carnegie library to make it happen.--Timestamps:(00:00) - Welcome and Guest Intro(01:41) - In-Person Catch-Up(02:40) - Meet Chris Branch(03:28) - Why This World Cup Hit Different(05:09) - Sports Writing Meets Politics(07:11) - Fan Culture and National Rivalries(10:24) - FIFA Corruption and New Fans(14:03) - Picking a Premier League Team(15:16) - Can Soccer Catch On in America(17:49) - Why MLS Struggles(21:55) - Pay-to-Play and US Development(29:22) - Women's Soccer and Global Gaps(33:47) - Trump, FIFA, and the Balogun Saga(35:29) - Red Card Controversy(36:25) - Iran Match Bad Karma(37:37) - Play Anyway Debate(42:22) - Sports as Common Ground(44:37) - Stars Politics and Fandom(56:10) - Money Youth Sports Future(01:04:53) - Closing Stories and Wrap--Referenced in the Show:The Pulse - https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/newsletters/the-pulse/--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.

Jacob sits down with J Mintzmyer of Value Investors Edge for a shipping deep-dive (but of course it's a geopolitics lesson in disguise). Mintzmyer argues the industry has barely changed in eleven years, most of the efficiency gains, double hulls, eco-designed vessels, LNG boil-off fixes, were locked in over a decade ago, leaving only regulation to move the needle. The two dig into why the US lost shipbuilding to Japan, Korea, and now China, how the Jones Act complicates the picture, and why America's real shot at relevance lies in owning and financing vessels, not building them.--Timestamps:(00:00) - Welcome and Setup(01:20) - Meet J Mintzmyer(02:38) - Shipping for Dummies(06:24) - How Shipping Demand Works(08:30) - Has Shipping Changed(16:48) - US Shipbuilding Decline(26:14) - Tonnage Tax Loophole(27:15) - Make US Shipping Competitive(27:54) - Finance Incentives Not Sanctions(28:56) - Why US Shipbuilding Lags(31:31) - China Shipbuilding Dominance(44:36) - Automation And Future Innovation--Referenced in the Show:Twitter: https://x.com/mintzmyerWebsite: www.vieresearch.comBox book: https://www.amazon.com/Box-Shipping-Container-Smaller-Economy/dp/0691170819Chinese automated shipyard (video): https://youtu.be/RXr03aRF_p8?si=1cjIBZaFeTTqhutD--Jacob Shapiro Site: jacobshapiro.comJacob Shapiro LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jacob-l-s-a9337416Jacob Twitter: x.com/JacobShapJacob Shapiro Substack: jashap.substack.com/subscribe --The Jacob Shapiro Show is produced and edited by Audiographies LLC.
