"So Leo Messi has been a professional pretty much his entire life. And the same happens to be true of our next guest. And even if you are not a soccer fan by any definition, I do have a feeling that you'll recognize his work. That is the almost physically inimitable instrument of Andres contour, a native of Argentina. Now 59 years old, who has been calling matches in Spanish, since the late 80s. He is now in the midst of World Cup number 12. And so he asked if he had just a little time before he calls the final for telemundo on Sunday to talk to us from Qatar. Andres, thank you so much for joining us, man. Where are we finding you right now? Can you describe the room around you? What's going on? By the Marina in the peril, one of the nicest parts of this beautiful city. I gotta say, it is 5 31 a.m. eastern, where I am in New York. And just hearing your voice, Andres, has awakened me. It's really good to have you on the show. You're a legend, man. Thank you for doing this. Thank you so much. It seems to be 5 30 a.m. here as well, because we live in crazy times here. We don't go to sleep until about. The time you guys wake up. It's really fun. You were on the call on Tuesday for Argentina semifinal against Croatia. This three nil win for Argentina. And your call on the third goal, which came off of this incredible assist from Lionel Messi, what did you see from messy on that play, Andres? I think pretty much why it described on the playwright play. The translation would be, he took him out to dance. He turned Guardiola one way and then sprinted the other way and went for the path with his right foot. It was an epic message Mughals. And, you know, the rhythm of the play by play was perfect because of the way Messi was moving on the ball off the ball and then going for the assist to Julian out of this. So it had every ingredient for a very nice

"And the thing you really notice when you watch him is the way human manipulates and really controls the ball. You can move with it wherever he wants in ways that essentially nobody has ever done. And he absolutely did find ways to integrate that improvisation that South American style that you alluded to before. Here's message away from two, three, four, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful. How good is he? And their Supernatural goal for Lionel Messi. He has wriggled and tiptoed his way to the gates

"Care of inter Miami alongside David Beckham's ownership group, of course, and everything that's come to plan and his partnerships with all his businesses, including Adidas as well. And messy coming towards the end of his career, at least in Europe. So, you know, there's a few things to, first of all, no. First of all, the intention for inter Miami to make this happen and to your point about the offerings of what they want for Messi is all there. They want him there. They're very confident about it. But so is PSG because they're going to have their own offer to put in hand. And Lionel Messi making this very clear is not making any concrete decision until next year towards the last 6 months of his contract. He will sit down with his family, his father, of course, and his representatives to figure out what the next step will be for him. The inter Miami move, whether it happens or not, it's important for people to remember that this is not just about him messy the player. It's also messy the businessman. He already has real estate in Miami. He considers the U.S. being the next part of his team messy project alongside Adidas, you know, he's reportedly also hopefully brings that with him as well. I talked to Sarah here, which gets in 2019. He very much told me how much he loves MLS and the play of scenario is very appealing to him. So there's a lot of things that are being put into place to make this happen. Whether it happens. Now it seems pretty good from MLS inter Miami side that it can. Whether it happens or not, that's up to messy between January and June. That's when he will make the decision. Because PSG still have to put something out there. But obviously for any MLS fund, not just enter Miami. I mean, imagine little Phil Neville when he was a kid thinking one day so you're going to manage your Mexican. I mean, that's pretty incredible, right? I remember, I remember the message in Miami a few years ago, looking at properties. And Paul, and he got mobbed, and the one thing I lived in my long time, I know enough that usually, the biggest Hollywood stars can walk pretty freely in Miami in the right spots. But I don't know who was looking after Lionel Messi, because he got absolutely mobbed. And maybe it's just a different to maybe that really is truly how big football stars are these days that are in some cases, they're bigger than Hollywood movie stars. But he went into this little restaurant, which was just at the road from where I live, which is a more residential area. And I don't think because there's people in the dough. I'm sure that the people in the west got most of rang all their friends. Including the owners and everything. Swarms of people outside the restaurant. Where if he'd gone to one of the ones maybe down on south beach, he may have been more protected and allowed to go outside the back door. This was not going to happen in this restaurant, but it obviously didn't put him off. Into Miami. You see this is a good move. You know this league? Well, first of all, quite clearly if the message do move to Miami, they need to speak to key about all the good little joints. That was my takeaway that you knew all the places. Players like lino Messi, and we've been having the same discussion about Cristiano Ronaldo recently played the early right to do whatever they decide. And one of them feels right, whatever feels right to them. And for their families. I can not criticize that decision. That's what he decided he wants to do. I think it will be a great book for the league. Indescribably so it would be agree booster for inter Miami again indescribably Sue. And for the projected general sports in general, how last thing it will be, well, only time will tell. But from a playing perspective for Messi, he said it's not right. He's easier to be right to play it into Miami to retire at the end of the season to do whatever he pleases. I just still can not help but see Leon Messi in a Barcelona shoot. Weaving his magic as he did a few years ago, regardless of how or what clubs he's played for and I mean that would agree to sort of respect to PSG in a couple of years that he's been there or whatever is to come next. They don't mess in the Barcelona and I should always be how I picture the little magician. Into Miami a good or a bad move for you, James for Lionel Messi. I mean, I think it's a sad move in some regards because effectively brings an end to his career at the highest level with the greatest respect to the LMS. He's never going to win the Ballon d'or there. So that's a chapter closed. He's obviously not going to win the Champions League. These titles that he's judged by, so I think from a European point of view, it's sad, but this is time catches up with all of us eventually, doesn't it? It will be, I think it's 36 in is it June next year. So I don't know whether PSG could sell him another year if there's a chance that this move could happen in 2024 rather than 2023. I think he would surely would be tempted by the possibility of one last go at the Champions League, one last go at the Ballon d'Or. I don't think league titles and probably motivated him anymore given how many is one obviously he's already won Liga. So I would just look at it if I guess from the European point of view. But for the MLS, yeah, fantastic for the franchise for the league for the country, really, to have a player of that statue over there. And he will, he's such an enduring talent that he will be seen to tremendous effect in that league for two, three, four years, which is why if I, not that he'll listen to me. I'm sure if he watches this, you know, just take a moment and give it another year if you can in Europe. I just love to see him. They had in Spanish James. Come on. You can translate. You can trust like for me, but I would just love to I would love to see him every morning. I know all the push places. There will still be those posh places will still be there in 2024. I've been saying posh. I just said places where it may have been a little more to speak. We all heard, we all hate the king. Really? Contact thing, I see some people. I'll help you next time. For a small fee. All right, so would shaker and James will catch up with you guys again throughout the week. Here on ESPN FC daily, looking forward to tomorrow, then Luis, a couple of standout games for us, one of them Portugal Uruguay, the other one Brazil's Switzerland. I know, that's an exciting little schedule there. I mean, I'm excited to see what Brazil is going to look like without name our junior who is injured for the group stage. Danella and by the way kamari reports as well from Reuters that Lucas bacteria has been ill and hasn't been training with the Brazilian national team. So a little bit more. You have won Sunday with that. You've answered it well. And then the other game Portugal order why I'm expecting a lot more from all the way, obviously Ronaldo and Portugal will look to make it another victory. So yeah, super excited. Which game are you looking forward to the most? You know what Portugal Uruguay I have to say? I think Brazil Switzerland obviously it's going to definitely have some interesting parts to it, let's say. But yeah, pie chicken Uruguay that for me is a little bit of fire and I can't wait for it. I will be back. You gave me a prediction. Do I give you a prediction? Yeah. Got a spa draw two two. Oh my God. You're so diplomatic case. I know because it's not being I did say a couple of drugs that worked in my favor, England USA. Well, one of those didn't work out eventually. If you keep making drugs all the time. I'm going with Uruguay winning two one and bring on the Ronaldo haters. We've already got one on here, so not to worry. All right, we'll leave it there, the shall we? She's not really late.

Mike Gallagher Celebrates Early Birthday in Las Vegas
"But after the long weekend I had in Las Vegas, Las Vegas to sort of celebrate my birthday with some dear Friends of mine. A little early birthday by a couple of days. And let's not talk about my birthday. I hate my birthday. I hate birthdays in general. I get in trouble because I forget my Friends. I forget my family. To me, I remember years ago, Eric Hansen, who's been my loyal operations manager for over two decades, used to take his birthday off. And I thought that was the craziest thing how anybody would take a day off for their birthday as an adult. Now if you're 14, I don't know, but people take birthdays very seriously. I dread them because it is a reminder of my grim march to the grave. I don't feel almost 62. Some days I feel 80, some days I feel 29. So good friends of mine, peg and Joey Hudson said, let's go to Vegas. We'll see Lionel Richie. And while we're there, let's carry Underwood. She was great Friday night, Lionel Richie, not so much because he canceled as we showed up to see his performance, which is something that would have been like a bucket list. Can you imagine seeing Lionel Richie in concert? He had a bad back. I literally said to the guy blocking the entrance when being told that Lionel Richie had a bad back, what? He can't sing with a bad back. What's in his back four to sing? I did shows in a hurt with a hernia. I did radio shows in my bed. I didn't say all that to him, but you know me. I'm selfish, and I'm impatient. And I'm instant gratification, and I wanted to see Lionel Richie, but we still had a great weekend, stayed at the Trump international hotel, great story from the Trump hotel, places packed, beautiful hotel, the Trump store, they can't keep Trump merchandise on the shelves. The lady told me as soon as they ship it in in the morning, it's gone by the end of the day. I would t-shirts, baseball caps, Trump golf balls, Trump paperweights, and people, you know, I'm sorry. Americans love the guy. And Americans are ready for a return to normalcy. Not just politically, but I've got to address this. I got to address how different Vegas is from so many other places, New Yorkers would faint. At how people in Las Vegas behave.

"Would have been great if he said, you know what? You know what you can do, you know what? Yeah. Brilliant. Fair enough. You're not gonna do that though. You gotta take a photo with the Japanese bed with that one. No, too. Don, how criminal has the Chelsea propaganda machine being to allow georginio to place that highly in the Ballon d'Or rankings when he's not even top 5 in his club or country? Here we go. Chelsea proper Gander. What does Shaka obviously doesn't rate your junior? I don't know why you don't like him Shaq. I mean, you said, earlier, that can take Harry georginio to a Champions League win. Alongside Donna Roma, I thought it was at least best player in the Euros. I don't know why they dislike for him shock. I don't dislike Georgina. I just don't think he's in Ballon don't reckon. I think to the question there was this campaign lest by Chelsea and mobile by Italian football. Chelsea, I didn't tell she Chelsea contributed to get me wrong. Still, it's not just your genius. Is this kind of weird all of a sudden people campaigning? Joe was the same with Benson, aren't going interviewing it. I really don't understand why countries and clubs is camping off our Ballon d'Or. Which is a weirdest thing for me. And he's had an unbelievable 12 month georginio. No, you know, you win the league. I get that. I mean, it really has been an outstanding 12 months for him. But I don't, maybe.

"Walking past Michael Carrie, who's supposed to be in charge right now. Right. Not even speaking to him, but starts back in August of players. That's not normally. That is weird. Considering he's never been on the bench before, as far as you know, he certainly hasn't been on the touch line, but he's got an earpiece in his ignoring Michael Carrick, and he's given odds to players on the field. That's no right. I did your boys just a puppet. I tell you what I must submit. When I've seen the images and I watched the game of Darren Fletcher with the EPC and Japan away and given instructions, I was like, that is very, very weird. But I know Michael and I do like to give them after the game. And I'd see through Michael if he was lying. He's an honest guy and I believe him. He's done prediction of the whole world. He's been talking about this year. It's rough run, you're going to ask Ronaldo. Bruno Fernandes to turn into pressing players. Good luck with that. But I think I went to back with stevia saying, I mean, what Steve is saying, I like his ideas. I like his conspiracy on that one because this is Ralph Ragnar. If there was one coach in the whole world who can sit in Moscow in a taxi on his way to the airport and try to run the game of anti united? That could be route frightening. Just you were there, and you were saying this on yesterday's show, something suspicious was going on. Very suspicious. And I promise you I was in the only one thinking that. And someone said to me, well, if it's a winner, drew for united, this would be rough steam. And there were half joking half series, but yeah, from the beginning, I was even even when Carrie said that was not the case. He was not but even these deniers was too strong, so I didn't want to believe that Raphael was at the heart of it all on Saturday. Don says he's telling the truth though. Speaking of Donald, let's take you through your Premier.

"Of all time. What if Messi and anything before in his life? And what if he went to copper America, leader assist lead goals, lead man of the matches? What if he won all the time? Just watch, watch the games with your eyes. You don't have to go on it on a fantasy messy mission. He's the best player that's ever lived. Facts. What I'm saying? He's been bet the Lewandowski in the last 12 months. He hasn't been. No, I think I honestly think had there been a Ballon d'Or last year Lewandowski would have won should have won. And I think everybody's feeling okay as feeling that sentiment towards Robert Lewandowski. That he deserved it last year. And there is a spillover. But there was a pandemic. There was no awards. We move on. I think we lost 12 months over the last 12 months. What you've seen from messie both individually and with national team, Warren's that. And while you can make the argument around georginio, I don't think Georgina was his standard player for Italy. I certainly don't think it was his time no player for Chelsea, while both of those teams won. I don't think we should stand out playing for either. So that's my opinion. Wasn't one of the standout players for Italy in the Euros. I said Joe Gibbs incredible these standout player for Italy in the U.S.. That's what I said, yes. It was incredible. I'm not denying that. Kids are always better than them, done a rumor is better than them. They are amazing. Chelsea. But it's a little crazy. I'm going to kind of carry them. Oh my days. Oh my taste. Angela panty carried your junior in the chapel's leagues. And the latter seems to be Champions League yes. Oh, damn me. Bailey. I don't know what to say. Isn't this epitomise though Joel is what you were saying? You've got 6 people here who watch a lot of football who can't agree on it. Exactly. And this is just what it's all about, isn't it? Exactly. Like this anger in this kind of bias and everything that we've been talking about is kind of just explained over the first 15 minutes of this show. Exactly. And there's been years where we all agreed that it was my CEO. It was Ronaldo. It was more rich or whatever. There were other years, not just 2021, but 2010, 2013, 2018, where we would all have these agreed on our I think he deserves it. No, he deserves it. No, he deserves, I think. This is what it is. And in a way, this is a good thing. And yet they are countries where maybe the football knowledge is not as strong as Stevie's or don'ts or Jan's and of course, and I think even from football would agree with that and acknowledge it, except that this is a trophy for the whole world to vote on. And this is what also is beautiful. It reminds us how high messy and when I do of course I've put the bar because even when it's not having the best of his seasons, it's still 30 points clear of 11 cubes. Had the best season of his life, and will never beat it, and yet still finishing second. This is just, you know, this is this is part of it. I've got more issues. We live on the ski being given this new thing that they gave him just to say, hey, sorry mate. We could not give you the one last thing which we still don't know why. This time you've been done again, but hey, here you go on your mental piece, have the mini one for the best striker, go score, whatever that was. I felt that to be humiliating full live on those you have to be honest. I think that's the one thing we'll all agree on. But yeah, hopefully it doesn't really matter, does it? It's a token award that in the grand scheme of things doesn't really matter. I love it. I mean, I love to discuss football, but I don't know. When shot could suddenly be called a handicap and it does not understand why it's a handicap coming from a smaller football nation or being a defender or a keeper. That is a handicap, because there will always win. And the last year, I remember when they made that 5, 6 years ago, I think I was there. They had the best 11 of the Champions League season. And all played in La Liga, all played in La Liga. Yeah, right. Great. Where's Luca model? Then he went the ball on top once. I think he did shake his 2019. Mind. We'll tie a bow on this now. I think and move on, as you mentioned, there was a special award for Robert Lewandowski, the striker of the year. He was given. Meanwhile,.

"Stupid list, by the way. The Ronaldo accept. And fall over, and act like a gore and go and party. People don't tell me this is a good lesson. This thing is anything not an in stupid, but isn't this what it's all about? When you've got a 185 different opinions which Jules explained, you're gonna have these sort of debates. This is what happens. This is what it is a catalyst for these sort of debates. Just because I think messier junior, I'm allowed that opinion. Let me see. People who voted are allowed that opinion. I'm going to go in the contest of who's been the best astronaut over the last four years. Right? Right. Well, I know nothing about it. And it just shows that some of these people that have got a vote don't know what they're talking about. That's a harsh thing to say, right? Just because their opinion isn't the same. Doesn't mean that they don't. You started laughing when I said Ronaldo with sex. You started laughing. So straight away, a large part of these people avoid for them. But do you see or what they're talking about? Just because they don't agree with you. Doesn't make them wrong. But done, devote these systems. Let's talk about a bit about the vaulting. I mean, you do that number 186. That is 186 journalists from all over the world. There are great journalists. There are completely stupid journalists and there are no people who have no clue journalists. So, maybe if we did that vote, 186 football players all around the world, they will vote on the best football player, the last calendar year. We have a look at who is the best player in their opinion. Messi will win every award for being maybe the best player of all time. But the last 12 months, when you look at the players, and yes, you can do Champions League in Europe over Georgia. Fair point, I'll take that. But the best player and best performers and their best skill and things that has been done this year is Lewandowski. I can't see any football player who can have another kind of view on that. Because what he has done has never been done before the way he score goes. And yes, you can have a go at the Bundesliga and Bundesliga this and Bundesliga that. Bayern Munich is one of the best teams in the world. And yes, Robert devonshire will never win a trophy for his country, but that is also a bad thing because I got more world cups than George Best of Ryan Giggs. So that doesn't count. Let me just see. Why are we fashion arguments around whoever is a preferred pick? Let's at least keep the arguments sensible. To see that to see that if the players had voted instead of the journalist, Lewandowski would have won, I think is ridiculous. PFA awards are evidence of that. That the players very rarely get it right. So that's for me. I don't know how you come up with that. To see that 11 doves key is starting with a bit of a bit of a handicap because he's Polish again, I don't understand that off to some of the most. Statement. You're the man who said, unless a nice messy one's a World Cup, you'll never be the best player in the world. Hold on a minute. What does Levin do ski being Polish have to do with him? Don't you got the character? He'll never win the noodles of the wine. He's given this, because. The only reason what did Poland do in the uterus? What did Lewandowski do in the winter? I'm asking you, what did he do? At least, once again, at least set that tourment anyway. Look, let me just see. To see that because he's Polish, he's somehow at a handicap of everybody else. In my opinion, is another ridiculous statement. To somehow equate a 185 journalists voting for a Ballon d'Or to the World Cup voting, I really don't get that parallel, and I hate the work of voting. And I don't agree with the bottom door at all. So if volume value fashioning your arguments around whoever is your preferred candidate, at least let's make the connect somehow. Because let me comment on that one. There's nothing to do with that is a handicap being polished. There is a handicap of being when the whole player journalists for all around the world will be voting. They will obviously will they stand between a player play for Argentina with a copper to cover America. He will be ahead of Poland. That's the same as being a defender in Ballon d'Or is a handicap. Maldini never wanted Philip lam never wanted. So handicap, we can go on without without being told that that is ridiculous, because that is how voting are functioning Shaka, welcome in 2021. Once again, I don't see a point, but okay. Don, are we in a situation where, obviously, we're looking for arguments for XYZ? Where we just take massive for granted? No, I don't think anyone's took them for granted for sure. I just think the Ballon d'ors losing its credibility. I think anyone that knows the game knows that in the last 12 months, Lewandowski and arguably georginio has been better than Messi..

"That Levin dosti didn't get it. Well, absolutely. I have seen maybe the best player in the world of all time winning a 7th award. But hello. I mean, messy is fantastic. We live on doors. We've had a fantastic two seasons and why he didn't get it last season because these friends Meghan seem kind of thing. Just said, no, let's not give it this year, because we can't give it a message. What is that all about? Messi, a fantastic player, but 11 dosco the rebirth of America from Boston, breaking gert Mueller's record should of course got the award. This is, as is always is, this is FC Hollywood of football. Don. I mean, what do you add? I mean, Jan's nailed it. I mean, there's a great caption on social media and there's a picture of Lewandowski lying on his bed and he's got about 20 trophies are up around him. He's had the best 18 months of his life as the Ann said, breaking everyone's records. And I don't know if it's just losing a little bit of credibility. You know, you look at Messi's, you know, he's in the situation, I'm still a marathon of fan. I'm holding onto the fact that Maradona was the best, but I get it if everyone thinks messy is, and I'm not the Oracle, but damn. He has Leonel Messi beat George junior in Lewandowski. I'll never know. Okay, right. What you're into that's a bit rubbish. We're good that we've learned that Don isn't the Oracle in the life. That's a good thing to take away from the start of this show. You're propaganda campaign for Kareem Benzema failed miserably. It did fail to be fair, fourth place. I mean, as you know, I would have picked him in first. But I think understand Jan's frustration done. I'm not sure what done feelings are right now. But let's go again. This is a democratic vote, right? You've got a 186, I think voters all around the world, one per country. And they just vote for the top 5 footballers. No one is forced to put Messi down or it's not enough football choosing who's the winner who's second who said. All those people have watched same games as us. They own opinions on messenger on Benjamin georginio. And they just pick that one to 5. All of one to 5 will be very different. And then as you saw with the result today, it's really tight. I think it's just 30 points between. But we have to respect for message to winning. I guess, even if Manchester, of course, was Ben simmer, for example. Of course, there is respect. Of course we have respect for a democratic vote. But of course it's harder for a Polish national player to win that vote and that you're saying is tight. That's just show you. There are journalists around the world. They just put a mess in there for a good habit. And I'm not saying that this disrespect to message. I'm not sure fantastic football player. I'm not sure. No, no, listen. Listen, I know, the problem I have, yeah, is that Henry winter votes for England, for example. He's the times senior writer. He's someone who's really respected in the waterfall. Not just in England. And Henry voted for georginio. And again, 11 of ski, as you said, has been great, fantastic, everything you want. But Henry felt that your new deserve his first his first place, his first place, more than 11 ski more than messy more than anybody else. And again, we might disagree with him, but I think we have to respect the court that Henry winter made. And all the other voters around the world, I can see why you feel strongly about 11th street, of course, and I'm with you. But this is what happens when you've got a vote like that with people from all around the world. This is the same when you have votes when you get Olympic Games and world cups to all kind of dubious countries. This is what's happening. And that is no disrespect or message. I think it's fantastic. And I do respect Henry winter. And he will put your genuine there because that is his feeling. And he does that because you think it's the best best player, but I think this time, 11 doves you should have got it. And if you didn't get it, they should at least have the I mean the sense and honesty to give him that for last year. But what is this all about? They didn't do it last year. I mean, this is just stupid. Steve nichol. I'm with a boy. I don't think this is nonsense. And the wrong one to bring up Joe's is Henry winter, because georginio, you can make a huge argument. Why should a woman? Let's be honest. Was massive that good. You know, because Argentina, you're picking messenger, aren't you? No, not. Really? Why would a picnic over Georgia? Because he's a much better one..

Ps g crypto currency. Fan tokens from socio dot com. These tokens let fans hold them. Vote on some minor decisions regarding the club. Like what song is played in the stadium during warm ups or the message. That will be on the captain's armband for example. So ceo's dot com says. The sale of the tokens has generated close to two hundred million dollars for its partner clubs this year. They've got a good half dozen or so Partner clubs and of course fans who buy them and then try to sell them for more than they paid them for them. And there's a brisk business in that trading volumes before messy signed with. Pse reached one point two billion dollars so giving messy a bunch of them gives him a volatile asset that he could potentially sell for millions. And these things are benefiting. Ps as well the ps fan token generated thirty million euros in sales this past week and it's estimated. Ps g keeps about half of that. If not more

"Fan account indeed three for little san marino and to borrow and maybe mangled the common sporting phrase san marino punching above its weight class. It's now the smallest country by population to ever win. An olympic medal narrowly edging out. Bermuda and liechtenstein. Severino has about thirty three thousand six hundred people which is roughly the lives of juneau alaska. Right as our good friend josh. Row movingly on this exact day. Ten years ago of san marino and the micro universe of little countries san marino is a curiosity among the curiosities. Indeed so look i mean. We know the olympics largely dominated by huge wealthy. International superpowers like the united states and china. They have the most people in the most resources in the medal. Standings tend to reflect that every four years. Most of the drama we see on. Tv is manufactured draw on our sympathy for our own athletes who have to overcome challenges like an injury or a previous olympic failure. But athletes like zingo really gervais and they're tiny little countries getting their moment understand and in the headlines is probably one of the few redeeming qualities of this billion dollar boondoggle let alone a billion dollar boondoggle. In the middle of a global pandemic the olympics can never truly be worth the expense and waste and political corruption. But if we're going to be beholden to this international spectacle every four or five years might as well pass some of that hardware around here here just love to see san marino. Get its moment in the spotlight. Can't believe that was ten years ago. The big man little country is serious. August ninth two thousand eleven you you writing from san marina. You remember that they surely do. It was an amazing trip and that trip ended with the small states of europe games which was like a mini olympics in liechtenstein for these countries to allow them to actually win something but even in that even in those games and so the countries that competed their iceland was the united states of the small states of europe games. They were cleaning. There's iceland luxembourg liechtenstein san marino monaco malta. Cyprus they're probably a few others that i'm printing san marino didn't win jack's go. I mean they might have won a little bit but they certainly were like way way way down at the bottom of the metal table and so to see them actually win three medals. Like you might. You might think that it's amazing that a country like thirty thousand people won three medals. I'm here to tell you that it's like way way more than you even thought that it was but is it also possible that the medal winners were just sort of you know. They got their san marino passport and they had been trained elsewhere. And ooh what are you trying to say. I'm not trying to diminish san marino's accomplishments at all. I'm just trying to lane suggested. Chicanery is a foot back. I have no. I'm asking you as a san marino expert josh. If you've looked into the providence of these athletes look naturalization. I mean are we. Should we take away the american basketball gold medal because akeem lage one was set naturalized. Why did you go after them. I'm just. I'm saying that step is attacking akeem by proxy basically. I mean if we're gonna if we're going to say the country's scandalous that athletes are competing in the scandal or weren't born in then we're just gonna have to cancel the whole olympics my friend. I know that. I'm just. I want to know more about these athletes and where they came from. Nobody nobody stopping. I mean we can do that. Retroactively awarded gold to the united states.

"Thing about soccer is infinitely shrink about the economy. You can have a soccer club which has zero revenues. You just don't play. The play is anything and you won't be very good and you can have a billion euros revenues but it still the same club and same stadium with the same shots in the same emotional attachment. So i agreed. Soccer club shouldn't have to be in this race to constantly keep revenues rising because we know twenty years ago. When the revenues were relative peanuts they will popular on just fine to write some out i want to. I want a big down a little on that. Because you mentioned barcelona's hundred and twenty two years old. Don't wanna tie the future of the club to this. One guy that one guy that happens to be messy right but there's a generation of fans who don't know a barcelona without messy so for people that are unfamiliar with the club itself like what does barcelona look like without messy like in the past has been this global fee. Nom that that that it's been grown into the last few decades not really messy and the club's rice greatness coincide and is not only because of messy messy comes at the start of the two thousand. He makes his debut in two thousand full as part of this. What turns out to be incredible spanish generation. Who will come from the club's academy savvy on this and yet sta jarred. Pk and the spaniards in the team win the world cup and twenty seven without messy so these incredible is as well just whole generation comes out of the academy together amd between two thousand sixteen thousand fifteen. They win the champions league full times will. That's fulltime more than barcelona have won the champions league in the history. Full messy arrives so really before messy. This is not a great club. This is just the club of the second city of a mid size not very rich european country so the years greatness i think with hindsight will say what brief and beautiful. Maybe no clubs bite played better salko than a bustle. Owner didn't the messier's and there is no kind of recapturing of that era and remember messy as study full even if you keep him but playing in a very wink team because there's no money to have other good players. You're never going to go back to that gloria's and lost yo without him with him. Last year. they finished side in the spanish league. Is there a chance that i mean. Is there a way for barsha to do what. American sports teams do which is tear. Down and rebuild. Know part of the problem that barcelona's seems to be that there's been bad management on the soccer side as well as on the financial side they should've traded messy for a bunch of first round draft pick. I mean this is a team that turned down offers for lanham baabda and erling holland two of the best players in europe right now when they were teenagers i mean. Is there a way out of this competitively and financially for barsha. I mean if you turn out to have an incredibly lucky and brilliant hand picking young talent both from your own academy and what they did lawsuit with Votes him for a basic five million euros which is nothing age seventeen kit from the canary islands. Just play the olympic final. Would spain has been a revelation. You know if you can do that five times over which is very difficult than suddenly you have kind of the equivalent of five us. Round draft picks. That is very hard to do. And then the last ten years has given no signs that they have the now to do that. I think the problem is they. Stop thinking when you're number one you stop thinking and clubs like liverpool and buying munich and manchester city just thought hotter in the last decade. What for you is the moment for messy barsa. Barsa the whether it's a a game or a goal or something else that really stands for the kind of synergy between him and the club at its at its peak. The champions league final at wembley in london ten years ago busload manchester united much English champions you had sold. They might be the best team in europe and they were played off the puck by messy in barcelona the fuss twenty minutes after half-time. I mean i say in the book where the says this is what we were aiming for. This is the kind of football we had in our heads. And i think i am nine hundred thousand people. Even menu fans left the stadium lace at that day we saw a soccer that we will probably never again see an lives of quality and a beauty that even alex ferguson's manchester united manager. He said we've never been beaten like that. Some it's it just seems like you've been preparing for this day for a while right. That people have been sort of gearing up that it was going to regardless it. Just maybe happened. a little. Sooner than people expected does seem fair. I think that's family. When i started the book in twenty nine thousand nine. I will see the cracks in the ceiling. But the cathedral's not about to collapse. And i was still i was gonna write a book about the greatness of the club and i have but also written a book about the decline in full and sunny. The cathedral collapse. That probably happened lost yet and now kind of the angel on the altar has dissipated and this has happened way quicker than we thought but you know human creation is forever and i think uniworld dwelling now on the downside and the mismanagement and the disgrace.

"Until he develops an immune system of his own. You'll have to remain particular. Are we talking days weeks or months years. Let's imagining the boy. And the plexiglass bubble. Yeah just this idea that you know we're gonna we're gonna attack you know we're gonna do everything we can except doing. The actual thing that one should do truly attack this and make sure that we're out there every game from my guys. And i mean it's funny to me in particular that he's a quarterback because so much of the way that we talk about quarterbacks forever but also but i think increasingly now is about Like it's the physical side of things is important but it's about understanding the game and really being able to. You know be prepared now. This connection with your teammates being smart and now this just like this is clearly someone who's an idiot and we still have to kind of pretend like he is the like genius leader of the team. Who's like you know guiding everyone On the minnesota vikings. It's more than that. It's like he's a he's indispensable. He's the scenic qua non for the minnesota vikings. That's great that we know that he's he's a no evidence that but it's a good line. Anyway mike zimmer. The head coach of the vikings angry about this. I just don't understand. I think we can put this thing the better if we all do this but it is what it is. The owner of the team isn't happy about this. I don't see why kobe's lee or kirk cousins should be playing in the nfl. Like why are teams keeping them around. Play fucking kelham on and blamed kirk cousins for the team's disastrous season. He would he would call him on vaccinated. I'm not sure. Cousins would probably be elected president if he gets cut because of his beliefs. But we don't have to spend out that disaster scenario i mean. There's just a certain amount of shamelessness that we allow publicly in public figures today. Maybe we didn't even allow two decades ago. I've i've felt like it would have people weren't is willing to sound dumb publicly as they are now and have a chorus of people supporting them along the way. So that's that's sort of the change they even if ninety percent of the league vaccinated Which way out ahead of the rest of us. They're still a very vocal stupid minority out there and they get affirmation and they get deferred to. I mean there's how many pieces have we seen. You should be. You should be nice to people that refuse to get the vaccination at this point And so we. There's a lot of coddling of seeing as many of those recently. I feel like the national mood has changed the interest. The interest of the vaccinated and being nice to the unvaccinated has declined precipitously. That's true that's still go back to this like the vikings basically fired rick dennison and assistant coach. Who wouldn't get vaccinated. The patriots led a coach. Go because he wouldn't get vaccinated or it was related to the cove nineteen vaccine nfl guidelines as espn reported. I just don't understand you know why. Kirk cousins is on the team stephan. Because he's the twenty third best quarterback in the nfl stephan possibly replace him as a culture. Obviously we have a great difficulty saying no but in this case it's to what end like fire these guys don't you think this is the beginning of the end for kirk cousins and minnesota like i think this is like okay like he's on his way out And i don't know how it's going to happen. But if you're coaches against this if you're owner is against this if the league mood is against this. I don't think that he can prevail. But i think what's really interesting. This need to be slow off dry. Assume for union reasons right that you know that it doesn't fall explicitly. Under the category of reasons you can cut a player. I think there's like three primary remains you can cut a player. I don't know that this neatly falls in one of those so this just waiting for him to throw an interception waiting for him to be kirk cousins waiting for all the quarterbacks to be able to participate in practice right right right what once you start playing and then it becomes apparent even more parent. You shouldn't be playing him. But i just think about think about the politics of the league and the people who own and run these franchises. They're much more likely. Side with kirk cousins and like greg abbott. The texas governor as opposed like jay inslee the democratic governor of washington. But yet and still they're fine with these mandates and protocols because they care most about the bottom line and maybe winning right and it puts the team at a distinct disadvantage if the vast majority of the team isn't vaccinated for logistical reasons as well as competitive ones so the nfl players union has realized that is responding accordingly. And it's just weird like that's why kirk cousins stands out right now because dot even your republican as owners in this league thinks that this is getting in the way of making the money and moving forward and you're still standing authority history here and the public mood so i mean you know we. We did sort of pick on kirk cousins for this but it's important to note. Note that he is like a distinct voice in this instance. He's not he doesn't represent the league and doesn't represent where the league wants to go on this but he may represent the minnesota vikings as you know the team with the league's lowest vaccination rate a lot of republicans are pro vaccine and even ones that were antibac- seeing what's happening with with delta like people have changed their minds..

I just needed to design a way that they might escape mimi's clutches and they in one chapter. They successfully do so in another. They don't so it was just these young people dressed as smurfs. Were visiting the elderly care homes and you know throwing sweets and dancing and singing to entertain the residents and So that mike couple dresses up in order to blend in with them was just a way of getting them out in her playful man very very playful and then of course it tends for very dark but we won't go that you've had some fantastic reviews this weekend. Do you read reviews. I vary relied on that. There's some books that i decide that i won't or i'll only the good ones or i think those kind of cheating on. I seem to be reading them right now. And so far less pretty painless you me write them and i wondered how you responded to the cynthia music poem in the new york times in to the review of of her book antiquities in the same paper. I thought it was a little babyish. Honestly i gave her a less than stellar review. It was respectful. But i didn't think that the novella that i was reviewing was especially impelling. And i think she's used to being treated like royalty and i don't think book reviewers should treat any author like royalty. So she wrote this cutesy poem that the new york times book review duly published and I'm sorry just being a poem doesn't mean that you're not violating the traditional understanding that when you get a disappointing review you shut up and take it. I have never written in to a newspaper complaining about a bad review. I would never even consider doing so unless there were a factual error in review obviously a well-known and i wonder if the pushback on that the attempted counseling. And all the rest of it. If that upsets you if it perhaps fuels you're writing or it hinders it. I am not self censoring. If that's what you mean. I still write. Whatever i damn. Well please and you know. That's a slightly more dangerous thing to do than it used to be so far. I'm still standing. And i'm hoping that i live to see the back of identity. Politics in canceled culture lionel. This has been fascinating. I'm so sorry that we don't have more time. Should we stay or should we go is published by the bar press. Fine copies are available from the hay festival.

"Do you want to know what happens if what happens. Is that terrible. And they they give different answers. You know and i feel personally very torn about that man. I i'm professional catastrophes. So i find coming up with. Disaster comes naturally to me and for most part that's entertainment to the extent that i believe in the possibility of some of these catastrophes however. I'm not entirely sure that. I want to live to see them. I mean you very interesting about the recovery or not of the economy. You talk about the j. shape but sometimes it's inverted and you have much to say about well loans monetary policy and so on. Well anyone who has read the mandible 's which was the novel published in two thousand sixteen knows that i'm very interested in economics and partly because it's also an area with great potential or catastrophe and so i was kind of picking up on that threat and i think there's been a lot of debate over whether or not The kind of economic sacrifices we've made through the pandemic or just going to be temporary and will will meet immediately bound back it won't end up mattering that we borrowed all this money to pay for the furlough scheme in everything will work out in the end and then there's another Strain of thought that suggests that we did terrible damage to the economy. That will take a long time to recover from and debt. The building sovereign debt in places like the uk and the us are indeed a danger to the structure of their very international monetary system. So one of the fun things about parallel universe world is that i don't have to choose one of those. I can have both so in one chapter of the economy just thrives and and and another it it's sputters and sputters and finally lapses and the pound becomes virtually worthless. I really want to more of a sense of of of the book of the different scenario. So you say that there are a couple of them involving old age one very luxurious a wonderful one and one just the most appalling place in the world and you talk about the slow death about care homes being warehouses for the pre dead in the very very dark. One there's a poignant but frankly hilarious scene where the wilkinson's end up dressed as smurfs to try and escape. And i wondered if you tell us a little bit about dr mimi and that.

"At the same time. She couldn't even remember the last time. She warned her hearing aids yet. Serious conversation was clear and crisp. As was the early evening birdsong on the other side of the clothes patio door as a former registered nurse she was well aware that the stiffening of the corneas starting in midlife. Was a one way. Process in crisp accuses did not improve and well. Furthermore she said faltering and again unsettled by the piercing. Look in her husband's is it makes a big difference to me anyway not to be living under that sort of damocles all the time. In retrospect i think it took a dreadful toll on me for years. Knowing that i committed to this hardened fast non-negotiable you know so released from all that stress and darkness and forboding. It's made me feel better. And maybe even look better. She finally raised her is from the board and met her husband's gays. You could pass for thirty five. He said accusingly. I do not say that to flatter you. I'm saying that as a fact what is going on. That was when she broke down and told him about the drug trial. Thank you very much. It's a wonderful piece. That really showcases the humor that runs throughout this book. But it's not all lovely staying young forever. It has many many problems associated with the they. They live so long that they start experimenting with different careers different. Genders you can have two penises if you want different partners and with race and i wondered if you could explore that aspect for us well. This was the thought experiment. It's essentially a world in which are granted eternal life. There is no more aging. Everyone looks twenty. Five has an interesting effect on family structure because now their kids and the parents look exactly the same and they don't look like you know parents and children. They look like friends. What was interesting about the experiment is it starts out seeming all very cheerful and gets darker because without mortality everything starts going flat the experiment with as you said many different careers. Although they are the only people they know who have remained married for for what we infer has been hundreds of years whereas other people's get get married dozens of times It turns out that when you have infinite choice in infinite availability of you know to do anything then. Nothing little by little. Nothing seems to matter. It's it's the fact that choices are permanent and they involved what we're going to do with our finite life that makes them seem urgent. In fact the chapter closes with the couple reflecting no. I miss our old urgency. That's what gives us dry. That's why we're so anxious about the decisions we make. It's why we why it matters which job you take because you're only going to have so many jobs. I thought it was interesting. It doesn't become a totally depressing scenario. I think the word flat is is better. It starts feeling lifeless..
