Episode description as stored

He covered soccer before it was cool, promised to go WikiLeaks on FIFA, then got detained and mysteriously collapsed in Qatar. If there was ever someone we needed to hear from, as a global conduit during this corrupt World Cup on American soil, it's Grant Wahl. So his former co-host, Chris Wittyngham — along with his family and one of the many stars he inspired — helps Pablo listen back to Wahl's lost tapes, re-live his fearless run for office and the rainbow target on his chest... then put the conspiracies to rest. • Previously on PTFO: America Signed Up for the World Cup. FIFA Stuck You with the Tab. • Listen to Le Batard & Friends re-live Grant Wahl's LeBron cover story • Subscribe to The Athletic Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
