Today on the podcast; A special on FIFA’s decision to award the 2034 World Cup to Saudi Arabia. How transparent was the bidding process and why does Saudi Arabia want the World Cup?
Elsewhere, we discuss the large-scale construction work required for stadia and infrastructure, the rights of women and the LGBTQ+ community in Saudi Arabia, and the rights of migrant workers due to the plight of political prisoners.
Plus: How have football associations around the world reacted? What can they do? Saudi Arabia has a strong football culture, many fans from the Middle East and Asia loved the World Cup in Qatar. Should we face accusations of being Euro-centric or just biased Westerners when we discuss all of the above?
