This Podcast Is... Uncalled For

The 2026 FIFA World Cup has come to an end. Thank you to everyone who came to the United States, Canada and Mexico.

We talk about the World Cup from a Kansas City point of view, as our hometown played host to three national teams and hosted six matches throughout the tournament.

Special thanks to the teams and their fans from: Algeria, Argentina, Austria, Colombia, Curaçao, Ecuador, England, Ghana, the Netherlands, Switzerland, and Tunisia.

Where were you on January 6, 2021? Our intrepid host was nowhere near Washington that day, and is still disgusted by the events of that day. Even more disgusting is that Donnie is trying to rewrite the history of that day. We - and NPR - won't let them.

Today we celebrate National Nude Day with a family-friendly naturist episode of the podcast. We are joined by naturists Dan Hawkins, Ashley Papavero, and Kip Gienau about their experiences in the nude world, what they most enjoy about nude living, and how others can give it a try.

To avoid any confusion: Sun Tzu is not a style of Kung Fu, but the legendary author of the ancient Chinese classic The Art of War. This episode is also the finale for Season 10.
