This week on the Second Captains World Service, Ken brings us up to speed on FIFAs decision to award the 2034 World Cup to Saudi Arabia and the frankly bizarre ceremony that went with it.

Meanwhile, Murph caught up with US Murph to chat about Juan Soto’s new contract with the New York Mets – the largest in professional sports history.

Plus, we look back on our chat with GAA heavyweights Rian O’Neill, Oisín McConville and Brian Fenton from Liberty Hall.
