Prairie Fire!

In the final part to the soccer/football trilogy, Ben and Jordan chat about Chile, Argentina, the Falklands, the Troubles, the Old Firm, and the upcoming Qatar World Cup. Apologies for my mispronunciation of Celtic FC, I play for a GAA team with Celtic in the name that pronounces it the other way. Apologies as well for the delay in releasing this!

In part 2 of our trilogy on the beautiful game, Ben and Jordan delve into some discussion about international intersections of politics and the sport. If there's an important thing you think we missed, we might get to it in part 3! As a worldwide sport, soccer/football has too many political components to cover in just an hour, so we continue along this track for the final two episodes.
