    A Winter’s Day in New York

    As the group stage comes to a close, FAN48 pauses the journey for a special conversation. For one episode only, “No pundits, no players, just people” bends its own rules as Rob sits down with one of Britain’s most respected football journalists, Henry Winter, in Kansas City before England begin the knockout stages. Together they reflect on ten World Cups, why tournaments always surprise us, what makes USA 2026 unique, England’s chances, the changing culture around the national team, and why fan experiences remain the heart of football. From the Tartan Army in Boston to Wonderwall echoing around MetLife Stadium, from hydration breaks to refereeing, Leeds United to the legendary Azteca, it’s an insightful conversation about football, travel and what World Cups really feel like from inside the tournament.

    A Game of Two Halves

    England. Panama. New York. And one of the strangest emotional journeys of the World Cup so far. It starts with tacos in Times Square, a rain-soaked pilgrimage across to MetLife Stadium and questions about whether the World Cup atmosphere has finally deserted us. But as the match unfolds, so does the day. Along the way, Rob meets an American Arsenal supporter experiencing his first World Cup, a Mexican couple celebrating their engagement, and an England fan attending an astonishing tenth World Cup. There’s laughter, reflection, plenty of rain, and a reminder that where you watch a match can completely change how you experience it. Sometimes football really is a game of two halves.

    Old York to New York

    A chance encounter in a New York hotel bar turns into a conversation about football, fatherhood and following your dreams. Rob meets Matt from York, a Leeds United supporter in town for England v Panama, who shares the remarkable story of his son Jacob. Inspired by watching Olympic BMX champion Beth Shriever during lockdown, Jacob went from discovering the sport during Covid to representing Great Britain on the international stage. Along the way, they discuss Elland Road’s redevelopment, Yorkshire music, World Cup atmospheres, the importance of giving young people something to believe in, and why sport can change lives far beyond the result on the scoreboard. Plus, reflections from New York as World Cup fever continues to build ahead of England’s next match.

    Panama Dos, England Uno?

    Back in New York, Rob heads to a sports bar in Times Square expecting to spend an afternoon watching football. Instead, he finds a little World Cup of his own. In the space of a few hours he meets Côte d’Ivoire supporters celebrating qualification, a proud Curaçao fan carrying a speaker in her backpack, an Ecuadorian airline pilot following his team across America, and DJ Black – the official DJ of the Panama national team – who confidently predicts a 2-1 victory over England. Along the way there are conversations about identity, migration, optimism, football culture and what happens when supporters from every corner of the world end up sharing the same room. Plus, birthday reflections from Manhattan, Times Square at full World Cup volume, and a reminder that sometimes the best stories appear when expectations are at their lowest.

    Scotland, Brazil and Bagpipes on a Bus

    Brazil v Scotland in Miami. My first proper World Cup matchday, and it did not disappoint. From Wynwood to the stadium, from a sea of yellow shirts to pockets of Scottish blue, this episode follows the full journey into Miami Stadium for one of the great World Cup fixtures. There are Brazilian fans full of joy and hope, Scots trying to believe, Neymar warming up like a rock star, and somehow, inevitably, bagpipes on the bus home. The result may not have gone Scotland’s way, but this was exactly what FAN48 is about: colour, noise, strangers becoming friends, and the strange, brilliant places football takes you.

    The Grass Is Always Greener

    Most of us spend a football match staring at the pitch without ever really thinking about it. This episode of FAN48 goes behind the scenes of the World Cup with Justin Lang, the man responsible for preparing and maintaining the playing surface at SoFi Stadium, oooh, no , The Los Angeles Stadium. From growing grass on a farm in Washington State to installing a World Cup pitch inside one of the most extraordinary stadiums on earth, Justin explains the science, planning and problem-solving involved in creating the stage for football’s biggest tournament. We talk about artificial sunlight, tactical watering, thunderstorms, stadium design, why some teams like a fast pitch and others don’t, and how a World Cup pitch ended up with the name Phineas. It’s a fascinating glimpse into a side of the tournament most fans never see.

    Football, Friendship and the Fun Police

    Los Angeles wasn’t supposed to be a football stop. After weeks on the road, this episode becomes a chance to catch my breath, spend time with an old friend and take stock of the FAN48 journey so far. Along the way I meet a New Zealand supporter who misses England more than New Zealand, chat football and Liverpool with a British-Egyptian producer, and discover that Los Angeles might be the most underwhelming World Cup city I’ve visited so far. But the real heart of the episode comes high above the city at Griffith Observatory, where my friend Mark reflects on launching the FIFA World Cup 2026 brand three years ago. Standing in the very place where the world first saw the tournament identity, it feels like a full-circle moment. There are reflections on friendship, travel, connection and why sometimes stepping away from the football is exactly what you need before diving back in. Next stop: Miami, Brazil v Scotland, and my first World Cup match inside the stadium.

    Currywurst in California

    After four days crossing America by train, I finally arrive in San Francisco. There are ferries crossing the bay, cable cars climbing impossible hills and the Golden Gate Bridge emerging through the fog. But before I’ve even checked into my hotel, a chance encounter with a man in a Germany shirt sends me in an entirely different direction. One conversation becomes another. A recommendation leads to a beer garden in Hayes Valley. Suddenly I’m surrounded by German supporters watching their World Cup match, sharing stories about Hamburg, Berlin, Sheffield Wednesday, Japanese-American communities and life in one of America’s most fascinating cities. This episode isn’t really about football. It’s about what happens when you follow curiosity instead of a plan. And, naturally, it ends with currywurst and a stein of beer in California.
