episode West Ham's Financial Crisis, Tottenham's Disaster, & World Cup Prize Money | Kieran Maguire cover

Beskrivelse

Football finance expert Kieran Maguire exposes the volatile economics of the modern game, where Premier League revenue has risen 3,100% since 1992, yet spending has climbed even faster, leaving the sport structurally loss-making. He unpacks the 2025/26 season's biggest financial shockwaves, from Arsenal’s £200m+ Champions League windfall to how Spurs’ brush with relegation rattled multi-billion-dollar investors. Kieran also exposes football's strangest paradoxes: why playing in Europe can lose clubs money, and how the Club World Cup now outpays the actual World Cup.  Looking ahead to the new 2026/27 campaign, Kieran breaks down the impact of the new Squad Cost Rules, the bleak future facing relegated West Ham, and why Arsenal are so well positioned to dominate both on and off the pitch.

episode SpaceX IPO, Broadcom Crash & Anthropic Vs. OpenAI: The AI Bubble Explained | Andrew Ross Sorkin cover

SpaceX IPO, Broadcom Crash & Anthropic Vs. OpenAI: The AI Bubble Explained | Andrew Ross Sorkin

Journalist and founder of DealBook Andrew Ross Sorkin cuts through the hype to expose the high-stakes reality of the AI boom and how a single technology is currently holding up the entire US economy. Drawing parallels to 1929, the dot-com era, and 2008, he unpacks a dangerous paradox: for AI's massive valuations to make sense, it must replace human labour, but if everyone loses their jobs, who's left to buy the products? Andrew also makes a compelling case that history's greatest leaps in progress, from railways to Tesla and SpaceX, were born out of destructive, speculative frenzies. He shares what separates elite entrepreneurs: a healthy insecurity that drives relentless execution, paired with a lifelong curiosity that success usually kills. Andrew Ross Sorkin's book: '1929: The Inside Story of The Greatest Crash in Wall Street' is available in paperback now: https://amzn.eu/d/05LJS2F0 [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqa2VqUW12RjZRMjVKYUMzRS13SnlmMTJ5bU5MZ3xBQ3Jtc0trS1ZJTWlTVFNuSTA4eHJ4Y0pQQU8xRWZTanZ5Ml9TNmtLaHNOQUdKRjFVcFJ1QnB0andIcDU5ckJZZ0x0bDk5NXNWWnV4X0JrX0JVUGVqZnFNMm5WbnExSVBWbmVDWDRiZHZfMWtvYjJMZGhaNDFCTQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Famzn.eu%2Fd%2F05LJS2F0&v=7l8DRTn-Ba8] IFS - award-winning Asset & Service Management software 👉 Reimagine your operations at: https://highpfrmc.com/rwih-ifs-yt [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbm1Qd1J1QmRmTHpocTNNYjNCTVAxRndaYkhwd3xBQ3Jtc0tsdC03dndabkVWS1BwXzBFMTJleFR6YVhBMW1VdWl0WVFpV3V4SDZEcVVJbmJmYkc1bXo4SE9ScHBwVUN1SDQtMmJXY3FQMWVsMGFjT0Z5TFlOeUZTSkp0Ukw4ZXFIblhRSE5LNi1kLTJHN1BUT0h5OA&q=https%3A%2F%2Fhighpfrmc.com%2Frwih-ifs-yt&v=7l8DRTn-Ba8] XTB 👉 To find out more and make your money work, use code RWIH at: https://highpfrmc.com/xtb-rwih-yt [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqazVoQjJuVjhBNGpzTF9hWk43OFdrcmRyMXdkZ3xBQ3Jtc0trN05Rcm5IaDNUSGN5VGtWa3BxOFNSajVrYkRrb3k1dVJoWnhEbF9SVHJPTmxFT1hPcXlQOGlnVHA4WHIybzJnNVJReWNKSWFmYkRSQ291NG5VUTd1M2IzZjgxTjVhSWpGUGFzZjBNZ3NPVy1CeEhHTQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fhighpfrmc.com%2Fxtb-rwih-yt&v=7l8DRTn-Ba8] ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.

How to Win & Host a World Cup Bid | Ex-Fifa Executive

CEO of CSME James Johnson takes us behind the scenes of hosting the most successful Women's World Cup in history, revealing why major events need strategic purpose, not just political visibility. He shows how real legacy isn't a buzzword, it's a measurable strategy that must begin years before the first whistle. From the Matildas' historic run becoming the most-watched television event in Australian history, to unlocking government funding by aligning sport with public health policy, James makes the case that the deepest legacy of any major event is a permanent cultural shift, one felt far beyond the final whistle. This is the blueprint for how sport can change a nation, not just entertain one.

The F1 Champion Who Conquered Silicon Valley | Nico Rosberg

Former F1 driver Nico Rosberg traded the adrenaline of the racetrack for the high-stakes world of venture capital, leveraging his unique F1 access to build a powerhouse fund managing over €200M.  In this episode, Nico breaks down the brutal reality of reinventing his identity after reaching the absolute peak of elite sport, and how a lifetime of racing failures completely inoculated him against the fear of failing in business. This conversation also exposes what most athletes and entrepreneurs get wrong about building a network and how Nico uses his network strategically to connect tech founders, investors, and legacy corporations. He shares why you must ruthlessly add value before asking for anything, and why success requires setting clear finish lines to avoid an endless, unhappy pursuit.
