AP correspondent Haya Panjwani reports on FIFA's president defending ticket prices and acknowledging the Somali referee denied U.S. entry.
The 2026 World Cup in the United States, Canada and Mexico is on track to be the most expensive one ever for match-going fans. The cheapest general sale tickets for the final are four times as expensive as they were for the final in Qatar in 2022, and represent only a small proportion of total seats. We look at the reasons for this surge in prices. Also in this edition: solar power overtakes coal in the US, in spite of Donald Trump's policies.
Late-night baseball, Hurricanes head home after evening the Stanley Cup Final, Jordan Staal making some Conn Smythe noise, World Cup ticket prices, and TSN's Frankie Corrado.
The biggest World Cup ever starts this week. Laura Williamson, editor in chief of The Athletic, describes how sky-high prices, travel restrictions, politics and the Ebola outbreak are impacting fans. Williamson also discusses President Trump's UFC event on the White House lawn. Ken Tucker reviews Kacey Musgraves' album ‘Middle of Nowhere,' which he says pairs well with the music biography ‘Gary Stewart: I Am From the Honky-Tonks.'See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy
#1014 | Ed and Tom look past the football at the expanded 2026 World Cup in the US. The focus is the off-pitch mess: visa and border problems, geopolitical tension, and reports of players and staff held for long stretches at US border control. Bans restricting fans from certain countries sit awkwardly against the tournament's "welcome the world" branding, and the gap between the message and the environment gets a hard look. Ticketing comes in for the heaviest criticism. FIFA's high, dynamically priced model and its resale marketplaces amount to legalised touting, with fees stacked on top. The result might well be uneven pricing and stadiums that sit half empty. Player welfare closes things out. Heat and humidity, water breaks that double as ad slots, and pitches rolled out over NFL turf all point to conditions built for revenue rather than the people on the field. Behind it sits FIFA's $13bn revenue target and Infantino's grip on the money through FIFA Forward. 00:00 Introduction 03:52 Geopolitics and Iran 05:02 Visa Bans and Fan Access 13:37 Ticket Prices and FIFA's Money 14:42 FIFA's Revenue 22:59 Infantino and the FIFA Forward Programme 35:32 Player Welfare, Heat and Pitches 44:24 Stadium Experience and American Sports Culture 51:49 Wrap-Up If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

The hour opens with reaction to the NFL's newly released international schedule and strong criticism of the league's continued push into overseas games. The discussion expands into travel logistics, highlighting which teams are expected to log the most miles this season and what that means for player fatigue and competitive balance. Attention then shifts to rising season ticket prices and frustration that international matchups are not included in standard packages, adding another layer to fan dissatisfaction. The segment concludes with major NBA news involving a significant front office change in Philadelphia, as ownership moves forward with a leadership reset that reshapes the 76ers' basketball operations structure.
The final hour begins with concern over rising season ticket prices following a 5–12 season, with added frustration stemming from fewer games being included in the package and what that means for fan value moving forward. The discussion then shifts to the Wizards' draft approach, including the possibility of trading back to accumulate assets and strengthen frontcourt depth behind Alex Sarr as the roster continues to take shape. The hour closes on a lighter note with news that Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels will be featured in the upcoming season of Netflix's Quarterback, alongside other notable NFL passers, adding national visibility to Washington's franchise cornerstone.
