World Cup 2026 Explained: Your No-Stats Guide to the Biggest Event of the Summer. The FIFA World Cup is coming to the US, Canada, and Mexico, and you are going to be talking about it whether you watch or not.
In this episode of Last Night's Game, Amy and Scott turn the world's biggest sporting event into easy, confident conversation. Find out why the host countries skipped qualifying, what the NFL grass drama is really about, why tickets cost a small fortune, and who is playing the halftime show (yes, BTS, Shakira, and Madonna). We cover the Team USA names to know, including Christian Pulisic and coach Mauricio Pochettino, the viral underdog everyone is adopting, and how to follow along all the way to the July 19 final.
No jargon, no shame, just the context you need to join the conversation. Listen now and get the sports news you'll want to spill.
The Last Night's Game podcast is here to take the awkwardness out of the conversation and help you join the sports conversation, even if you don't know the first thing about sports. We break down what's happening in sports in an easy-to-understand, fun way without all of the statistics and jargon, so you never have to exit stage left when the chatter at the office, dinner table or networking event switches to sports.
