Where next for the sometimes tricky relationship between football and crypto companies?
We look at how some of the biggest clubs, and players, have embraced crypto products, and what that means for supporters.
From fan engagement tokens to NFTs, advertised by the world’s biggest stars, to deals with Premier League clubs which turned out to be fraudulent. Is it putting fans in a potentially difficult financial position?
Or just giving them another way to support the team they love?
Produced and presented by Imran Rahman-Jones

Picture a rock 'n' roll icon like Jimmy Page, or Jimmy Hendrix, and they've probably got an electric guitar in their hands.
But, as classic rock - and classic rockers - continue to age, is the guitar industry struggling to attract younger customers?
In six years, electric guitar company Gibson has gone from filing for bankruptcy to opening its first flagship store outside the US.
We hear from Led Zeppelin's Jimmy Page, Grammy nominated singer James Bay, and one of the world's foremost female luthiers to find out whether the guitar's association with rock 'n' roll has become bad for business.
Produced and presented by Will Chalk.

Sports betting is a relatively new industry in the US.
Until 2018 you could only legally bet on sports in the state on Nevada, the home to Las Vegas.
New Jersey was the first state to legalise sports betting six years ago and since then, a total of 38 states across America have done the same.
Hannah Mullane looks at how the industry has grown so rapidly and discusses the consequences of the industry which has been allowed to evolve with very little regulation.

Stella, Dawa and Salome arrived at the Bidi Bidi refugee camp in north-western Uganda with little more than the clothes they were wearing.
Now, all three are entrepreneurs and businesswomen, running thriving businesses and earning enough money to clothe, feed and send their children to school.
Can their stories help development agencies and governments deliver support to those most in need?
