Are You Not Entertained?

The Rory Episode. It was inevitable that the lads would have a vigorous “debate” over the definition of the word “choker.” This show doesn’t disappoint.

GOG is back to call it all as it is. No punches pulled. Thinking differently. The world is the most volatile it has been for decades. What does that mean for sport?

On The Captain’s Table this week we welcome Grant Williams onto the show. And what a way to sign off the final show to be hosted on the Rive Gauche. We talk Fulham FC. Golf. Basketball. And have a lot of laughs.

The lads look at our world (of sport and investment) and ask the very scary question.. “Is the established narrative accurate?"  Eddie Jordan, Ratcliffe, religion in sport both serious and comical, PE heading into a wall, the overvaluation of Apple+. And OnlyFans.  So so much.

The podcast dives into the chaotic state of sports amid rising societal negativity and algorithm-driven discourse. It critiques the challenges of fan engagement and the impact of cryptocurrencies on traditional sports. Conversations cover the historical significance of teams like Knotts County, the struggles of the WNBA, and the legacy of women's sports. With a humorous twist, the hosts also touch on controversial figures in sports and share lighthearted banter, merging serious themes with playful interactions.

This week our boys attempt to explain nihilism in sport and finance markets. In lighter moments there are the usual laughs and pettiness on the Super Bowl, Ye, Montoya, Kings League, and those poor investors into French football. Surf’s Up.

Grant and Roger take an extended look at all the madness in our world of sport, and beyond. Money, Demographics and Geopoltics. And as always. A few belly laughs.

GOG makes its return in 2025. An hour of observing the world of sport from the surreal to the serious. David Lynch would be proud.

Grant and Roger with the wrap-up Goal Own Goal of the year. Merry Christmas.

Today the Groundsmen reflect on the last year, indeed the last six, to ask where is the industry of sport. Can it be saved? Brought to you by Web3 Sport Ventures
