Adam Crafton (The Athletic) joins us from the sweltering heat of Qatar where journalists abound in jumpers, to discuss what the event is revealing about football and politics.

Dan Taylor-Watt (Digital Consultant) takes us through Disney's CEO-switch, including why Bob Iger never really left.

In Part Two: Charlotte Tobbit (Press Gazette) takes us through the consequences of Elon Musk making content users the new content moderation panel.
