Football Weekly · Is the USA ready for the World Cup? – Football Weekly podcast · 13 May 2026 podcast

What's it like over there?

It's not the football season.

I mean, it is your football season that many people are paying attention to.

I think, as with many big events in the US, you know, the ramp up hasn't really started yet.

I think you often find with tournaments like this, you see this with the Olympics too, it's very much not happening until it's on the absolute most eve of it happening.

Yeah.

And then it's all that anybody is talking about, and it tends to go that way for the entire length of time that it exists.

So, you know, is everybody on the street here talking about the World Cup?

Not really.

I mean, you know, I've certainly had more conversations about it in the last month or so than I have in the month previous, but it's not as if it's the only thing on everybody's minds right now.

I think you'll see that change in a very, very big way, maybe in a couple weeks, and then...

exponentially more so in the next week and then once the tournament starts it's all anybody's going to be talking about because these games are going to be happening and they're going to be bringing people to people's doorsteps uh sometimes literally there's a little bit ways to go but that's not necessarily a bad thing or all that unusual yeah would you go with that leander

If I knew or if I had any definitive vision... That's not my question.

I'm sorry.

No, it's okay.

If I had any sort of definitive vision for how this would play out, I would be probably doing something else.

But yeah, I mean, it's really, really tough to say.

As you say, there have been yet...

another volley of words between our various countries' governments.

It's difficult to know what, if any, effect that will have on the soccer team's participation in the World Cup.
