Several months ago, video streams starting appearing online of a seemingly authentic professional cricket league, and hundreds of people started betting on the outcomes. But the truth, we have since learned, was much more complicated.
First up, Chad saw Nope and also saw a teaser trailer for Oppenheimer, which has since been released online (4:12). He thinks both of those things are worth your time!
We revisit the financial issues at Barcelona and why they have seemingly recovered from the brink of economic collapse. But has their recovery been ethical? We both have our doubts (8:00). The American government has given Russia a prisoner-exchange offer to bring Brittany Griner home, but is the cost too great (13:47)? And the LIV golf tour came to former president Trump's course, so what did he have to say about the upstart, dubiously-funded league (18:00)?
And for the big story, we talk about the fake Indian Premier League, and the wider world of match-fixing (25:42).
