Show Notes

Patrick and Hayden put their necks on the line with their 2026 World Cup predictions. Brazil and the Netherlands are not what the hype suggests. Norway and Switzerland are being slept on. And in the race for the Golden Boot, Mbappe and Messi are close to World Cup history. The guys pick their winner, their dark horses, their biggest flops, and every individual award from Golden Boot to Young Player of the Tournament.
