191. FIFA: the shady group behind the World Cup

Conor Powell is the host of the brilliant podcast Lords of Soccer. We will talk about corruption in football, how World Cups were hosted during brutal dictatorships in Argentina and Chile, and how insane it was to give Qatar the world cup to host.

What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.

Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to ex-Hasidic Jew Julia Haart and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders.
