The People’s Game Podcast #9 – 6/20/14

On today’s podcast, Alan and Meleiza recap today’s games, including Costa Rica’s impressive upset of the Azzuri, and look forward to tomorrow’s matchups. KPFK’s Suzi Weissman gives us a view from the South, as she sits down for a chat with two Chileans, Arturo Cifuentes and Oscar Mendoza, as well as Brazilian economist Pedro Paulo Zahluth Bastos. Finally, we look on the funny side of this year’s World Cup with a hilarious roundtable from KPFK’s Pocho Hour of Power, hosted by Lalo Alcaraz and featuring comics Matt Kirshen, Mike Bridenstine, and Ryan Conner. Finally, we get a glimpse into LA’s Ecuadorian fan base with a report from Alan Kuey.
