    Feed Drop: AITA? I'm Co-Hosting the World Cup with Mexico and Canada
    Mar 12 2026
    In 2018, when the United States, Mexico, and Canada were selected to co-host this year’s World Cup, it sounded like fun: three friendly democracies throwing the world's biggest soccer party. LOL. LMAO, even. To kick off Season 2 of An American Game, Tom and Kirk take a look at our (longer than you think) soccer history with our northern and southern neighbors and put some color back on what’s become a pretty crude, black-and-white picture. Because despite all the recent division, we’re actually more connected than ever. And that's something to root for this summer! Listen to An American Game wherever you get your podcasts.

  • How Formula One Driver Management Decides Champions (June 2025)

    How Formula One Driver Management Decides Champions (June 2025)
    Mar 5 2026
    This is a re-run of Sportly's June 2025 episode: "Let Them Race? McLaren Vs. Red Bull’s F1 Strategy War " What happens when McLaren lets its star drivers race without limits and Red Bull doesn’t? The 2026 Formula One season is officially a "hard reset" for the sport. With a total regulation overhaul, cars are becoming smaller, lighter, and more complex. Drivers will now juggle 50/50 hybrid power units and active aerodynamics while fighting for position with a brand-new "Overtake Mode". As the competitive order resets, the most critical factor for success shifts from the factory to the pit wall: driver management. This Sportly episode explores the high-stakes decisions team principals face when the rulebook is rewritten. We dive into the controversial world of team orders, examining why some teams, like Red Bull, enforce strict hierarchies while others, like McLaren, let their drivers "race freely" - sometimes with disastrous results. From the teammate collision at the 2025 Canadian Grand Prix to the calculated strategies of the past, we unpack the wins and failures that will define the 2026 grid. When the engines fire up and the risks are higher than ever, will teams play it safe or let their drivers take the wheel? Host: Kavitha A.

    Feb 26 2026
    In this feed drop episode, Tamerra and Jillian, hosts of the Full Time podcast, set the stage for the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil. They break down how qualifiers work and examine disparity in resources and opportunities across countries. While the U.S. women’s national team has been playing friendly after friendly, plenty of the rest of the world has already started their qualification paths to the 2027 FIFA Women’s World Cup in Brazil. So, what is the state of World Cup qualifying around the world in women’s soccer? What do people need to know about the differences in how the six FIFA confederations handle their qualifiers? How can FIFA change the women’s game and increase investment? Who are the nations to watch that could be on the rise over the next year?
