Rev Left Radio: Socializing Sports: Reclaiming The Beautiful Game from Capital & Empire

In light of the Superb Owl occurring this weekend I thought I'd share this episode of Rev Left discussing the class nature of sports.

The conversation covers a lot of facets of the business of sports. Some things I found interesting were the purposeful sidelining of football (soccer) in the US and the way football clubs are owned in the global south (publicly by the fans or the community) vs. the imperial core (billionaires club), and the history of why certain sports are popular in certain regions.
