Our Club Spotlight series is returning for a special World Cup edition! At this season's tournament, we have four nations competing at their first ever World Cup: Curaçao, Cabo Verde, Uzbekistan, and Jordan. As the competition progresses, we will be highlighting each footballing nation – exploring their political, geographical, and sporting histories and learning how they got here. The final episode in our series is about Uzbekistan, the first Central Asian nation to qualify for a World Cup – and also the region's largest by population. We delve into the country's rich history, from its ancient roots to its time under Soviet control, to its modern era of independence. Often defined for its economic isolation and horrific civil rights record, we at its slow evolution in the past ten years as its steadily opened up to the rest of the world and how it is addressing improvements in civil and social reforms. Next, we move to their footballing history, which dates back before the 1920s, and detail their path from limited opportunities under Soviet rule to the formation of the White Wolves in the 90s, as well their infamously arduous and frustrating path to qualifying for their first World Cup. Finally, we talk about their appointment of Fabio Cannavaro as manager, their exciting youth development and evolving roster, plus a look back at how they performed in their debut on the world stage. Cheers to the footballing nation of Uzbekistan!

Why did the man who just conquered India weep over a melon — and what does that tell us about the fruit that travelers from Ibn Battuta to Victorian cavalry officers have been stopping their journeys to describe for seven centuries? How did the river valleys of what is now Uzbekistan become the origin point of every sweet melon on Earth, and the crossroads through which paper-making, Islam, and Buddhism all passed in different directions? And who was Babur, the tiger who lost Samarkand twice, won an empire he couldn't love, and asked to be buried in a garden in Afghanistan?Join John and Patrick as they tell the story of Uzbekistan and the melon — the Silk Road, the Baburnama, and the concentrated sweetness of a fruit that still makes people stop and weep...----------In Sponsorship with J&K Fresh.The customs broker who is your fruit and veggies' personal bodyguard.

Professor Donald Rayfield picks up Crimea's story in spring 1942, when Germany turns south for the Black Sea and oil. Some Tartars can't imagine anyone worse than Stalin. Some can't imagine anyone worse than Hitler. Tragically, they are both right though in different ways.Donald explains the realities of the German occupation, from the early “orderly” phase to the arrival of SS units whose mission is extermination of the Jews. Astonishingly some Jews are spared as the ever 'scientific' Nazis rule they are not Jews at all. Then comes one of the great crimes of world history. Stalin decides to deport the entire Crimean Tatar nation to Central Asia. Donald tells the story of the cattle trains, the scale of death and the uncertain welcome for survivors in Uzbekistan. Crimea itself is stripped of Tatar presence through renamed towns and seized homes. We bring things up to date with the 1990s return and the brief cultural revival under Ukraine . But the post-2014 Russian annexation brings renewed repression. As Donald says 'History can always get worse'. It is a fascinating episode.
It started as an English-teaching ministry in Japan in 1967. Today A3 is raising up church leaders in 25 countries; leaders equipped and unified to accelerate gospel movements around the world, including numerous hostile areas and restricted nations where The Voice of the Martyrs works with persecuted Christians. Dr. Joe Handley, CEO of A3, and Janelle Stoops, U.S. President for the ministry, join VOM Radio to share how A3 was founded and how it serves the global church by meeting one of the biggest needs: trained leaders. Relatively new to A3, Janelle will share her background as a gospel worker seeing God establish his church among Muslims in Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. She also got a personal taste of Christian persecution as she and her family were expelled from the country they'd grown to love. She wrestled with having to leave the place they felt called to, but ultimately accepted that "God was working here before we got here, and even when we leave He is still going to be at work." Joe and Janelle will share challenges they face in ministry, how they work under the radar in places where Christian teaching is not welcome and how A3 provides resiliency training to leaders in countries where there is intense persecution. These leaders also experience fellowship within the Body of Christ, knowing they are not alone in their suffering. One tool A3 uses to help build resiliency in the leaders is a book published by VOM titled "In the Shadow of the Cross." You can order your copy to learn what the Bible says about Christian persecution and suffering from Genesis to Revelation. The e-book version is available for free in the VOM App. Download the VOM App for your iOS or Android device today.
Kate Adie introduces stories on Venezuela's earthquake recovery efforts, the rapid start of Hungary's new PM, a post-Soviet reunion at a border-town bazaar, and does the American Dream still hold up as America celebrates 250 years of independence.In Venezuela, family and friends have joined rescue workers in trying to find survivors after two earthquakes hit the country's north last week. It was the country's deadliest natural disaster in a century. Will Grant returned to his old neighbourhood in the capital Caracas, where he met locals still searching for news of their loved ones. Hungary's new Prime Minister Peter Magyar has been in office for less than 60 days, but has quickly set about rolling back laws and dismantling institutions built up by former strongman PM Viktor Orban, Such is this political whirlwind, it's become must-see TV. Nick Thorpe reports from Budapest. The break- up of the Soviet Union in 1991 led to the independence and redrawing of the borders of its fifteen republics, including central Asian countries like Uzbekistan and Turkmenistan. Ibrat Safo, who grew up in Uzbekistan, tells the story of how his family became separated for decades - and how a new border-town bazaar became the scene of a poignant reunion. And it's the 4th of July – which this year marks 250 years of American independence. This year's anniversary has prompted much introspection about what the USA stands for as a nation, and recent surveys have found a shrinking number of Americans still believe in their country as the land of opportunity. Asma Khalid reflects on her own family's pursuit of the American Dream.Series Producer: Serena Tarling Production Coordinators: Sophie Hill and Katie Morrison Editor: Richard Fenton-Smith

Our Club Spotlight series is returning for a special World Cup edition! At this season's tournament, we have four nations competing at their first ever World Cup: Curaçao, Cabo Verde, Uzbekistan, and Jordan. As the competition progresses, we will be highlighting each footballing nation – exploring their political, geographical, and sporting histories and learning how they got here. Next up is Jordan, a middle eastern country with a rich and ancient past, with a population just under 12 million. We talk about Jordan's history dating back 60,000 years, its relationship to English colonization, and the complexities of its geographical positioning. We also discuss their unusually progressive policies towards immigration and refugees and how that has impacted its sporting landscape. Next, we learn about its history in football, including its relatively stable domestic league, the rise of the national team, and how they finally qualified for the big one. Finally, we lament the insanely difficult group they were drawn into, as it limits the heights they can reach at their inaugural World Cup.* Cheers to Jordan! *Note: This podcast was recorded before Jordan's group stage matches. Naturally, they did not pick up any points, but they did acquit themselves well!

Ronaldo just answered his critics with a brace in Portugal's 5–0 win over Uzbekistan, while Messi has five goals and Mbappé and Haaland have four each in the early World Cup golden‑boot race, setting up a tournament that could reignite every GOAT debate at once. With Portugal among the contenders and Argentina also near the top of the odds boards, the crew points out there's a real chance we get a Ronaldo‑vs‑Messi World Cup knockout clash, where one legend sends the other home and the internet melts down.
Cabo Verde, a nation of half a million people, draws with Saudi Arabia and walks into the World Cup Round of 32 in their first ever tournament appearance.

Christian Polanco and Alexis Guerreros react live to France's emphatic 4-1 win over Norway to clinch the top spot in Group I.

The guys break down France's dominant display and discuss what it means heading into the knockout rounds. Next, The Cooligans reveal their Player of the Match, with Ousmane Dembélé earning the honors after a brilliant performance. Christian and Alexis also debate whether Kylian Mbappé will leave the match pleased with France's overall display or frustrated that he didn't get on the scoresheet. They then hand out their World Cup stock up and stock down picks, highlighting the players and teams trending in opposite directions as the knockout stage approaches. To wrap up the show, the guys preview Groups K and L as the final group-stage spots in the knockout rounds come into focus.

On The Morning Shift, Mike Johnson, Ali Mac, and Beau Morgan spend some time with former 12-year professional soccer player and now Audacy soccer insider Jamie Watson! Mike, Ali, Beau, and Jamie discuss if Jamie was satisfied with the U.S. Men's National Team's performance against Türkiye last night, if Jamie thinks the U.S. Men's National Team's loss to Türkiye last night resulted in the U.S. Men's National Team losing the momentum they had going into that match even though the team had nothing to play for last night, how Jamie felt about the U.S. Men's National Team Head Coach Mauricio Pochettino playing Christian Pulisic in a meaningless game last night against Türkiye coming off a calf injury, how Jamie is feeling about the U.S. Men's National Team chances against Bosnia-Herzegovina in the round of 32, and what Jamie expects to see in the Congo DR versus Uzbekistan match that's happening tomorrow here in Atlanta, Georgia.
Eddie is surviving the European heatwave, but does think that people are overreacting to England's 0-0 draw with Ghana. Frank was less impressed by the officiating than he was by England, and Eddie agrees that England had a lucky escape with one or two of the decisions. Ronaldo scored twice against Uzbekistan, and Eddie believes that Frank is giving CR7 a slightly hard time when it comes to his role within the Portugal team. Plus, how much will this World Cup impact Erling Haaland's legacy? Serena Williams is back, but will she be a popular draw in the first round of Wimbledon? And is Zlatan Ibrahimovic playing a character as he stars alongside Thierry Henry on Fox Sports?
Love him or loathe him, you simply cannot ignore Cristiano Ronaldo. "I'm back" was what he exclaimed down the camera lens after his two goals against Uzbekistan, but is he *really* back?David Cartlidge and Nicky Bandini join Dotun to debate that. Plus, Switzerland top Group B with victory over Canada. Can this tournament's quiet achievers trouble the knockout rounds?
