Fantastic to see the work being done with unhoused people in the Fredericton area by Stir the Pot Distro. You can find them on Instagram @stirthepotdistro www.cbc.ca/listen/live-...

The story of what happened this week in Mexico explained in less than one minute. You’re welcome.

I cannot tell you how much I love that Jerami Grant did this and I hope it is specifically directed at his genocide apologist teammate Deni Avdija.

Mexico and World Cup 2026 Politics The incredible Alexander Avina joins to discuss the intersection of Mexican football, politics, and the upcoming FIFA Men's World Cup, including the recent drug war developments. open.spotify.com/episode/3lgT... @harbingermedia.bsky.social

In this edition of OLF, Chen Chen made sense of the contradictions of LeBron James' supposed commitment to social advocacy when read through his silence/positive comments on Israel

@endofsportpod.bsky.social has done a ton of work about this. Look kids/players are commodities to these team. It isn’t right.

Major @endofsportpod.bsky.social dropping later today on MEXICO.

Today I had a meeting about funding I received for a November 2025 (!) presentation. Part of the agreement requires me to present the talk at a university-wide event in March 2026. I was told today I could either censor/change my talk’s title and receive the funding, or withdraw. I withdrew.

This is disgusting. Academics in Florida are being compelled to censor their work on political grounds if they want to receive basic professional development funding.

(Apparently I prefer to podcast with my eyes closed.)

New OLF out where we were joined by friend of the pod, Chen, to discuss, among other things, the mounting calls for Ireland to boycott its Nations League tie vs Israel later this year

Finally listened to this - super interesting conversation!! I think one maybe missed thread was the consequences of changing money and power in global cricket for "growing the game" and who gets invested in in associate cricket (and why).

Hard to imagine a more personally targeted set of podcast episodes... Following this one up with @seanjacobs.bsky.social talking about AFCON and football politics...

And hopefully I'll get to the conversation with @harshawalia.bsky.social about sports, borders, migration, racial capitalism, etc. this weekend!

Replugging our latest ep where @harshawalia.bsky.social analysed the sports mega-event as a bordering regime

Governments everywhere are realizing they can gut funding to higher education and the base won’t bat an eye. Faculty associations, faculty and staff unions, student and lobby groups need to coordinate and respond in meaningful ways if we want this trend to stop.

Catastrophic higher education news in New Brunswick: the Liberal government of my MLA @susanholtnb.bsky.social is potentially going to cut 10% of the budget for universities—$50M across 4 schools when much *more* funding is needed, not less. The impact would be devastating. Please share, NBers.

Simply no better person to talk to about migration than @harshawalia.bsky.social. This one is vital.

It was such a pleasure to chat with @harshawalia.bsky.social on the pod. Our latest episode is out!

Migration and Racial Capitalism Vital new convo with the amazing @harshawalia.bsky.social on the connections between migration, racial capitalism, and the role of sports mega events in normalizing surveillance and militarization. open.spotify.com/episode/1p6J... @harbingermedia.bsky.social

My Eleven Named People week’s newsletter pairs old partners (Israel and LeBron James), announces a course by Tony Karon and me, and includes an interview I did with @endofsportpod.bsky.social podcast. elevennamedpeople.substack.com/p/wednesday-...

FIFA and UEFA have had every imaginable opportunity to do the right thing by censuring Israel. They have refused. Now, it's time for President Infantino and President Ceferin to be held accountable for their participation in war crimes and crimes against humanity.

On @endofsportpod.bsky.social ep176 the team sit down with @seanjacobs.bsky.social for a conversation on how AFCON's shift to a four-year cycle has implications for African football and the role media plays in addressing issues surrounding the World Cup. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/t...

Never forget.

Soothing to your conscience for not sticking your head in the sand!

This is an *actual* sports journalist who shows us how it’s done. Thank you.

We discussed this issue on last week's @endofsportpod.bsky.social episode with @karachikhatmal.bsky.social as well. On cricket's appeal for the Hindutva fascists. Watch more - youtu.be/uEuO2Rg8_7k

“Cricket is held hostage by the fascistic designs of the Hindu nationalist regime.” That part. 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

We stay cricket-pilled here on EOS.

@endofsportpod.bsky.social has a lot of really great podcast episodes on football and issues like this. No sport is worth this 💔

@karachikhatmal.bsky.social on the right-wing obsession with the India-Pakistan rivalry. From our latest episode

Actual comment on the YouTube recording.

Ahmer is equally fluent in cricket and American sports and his analogies lead to hilarity AND clarity.

we always appreciate feedback from the fans

Lmfao iykyk @endofsportpod.bsky.social

Well, @endofsportpod.bsky.social, I guess that debate is settled now.

This episode was brilliant. @karachikhatmal.bsky.social is an absolute delight to listen to and made so many fascinating connections in this ep. Tune in below 👇

It was such a delight to have Ahmer on the show to talk about all things politics in the world of cricket. Check out our latest episode

This is, no exaggeration, one of my all-time favorite episodes.
