94. Soccer Stories

Hear unforgettable and bizarre soccer stories that will make you shake your head in disbelief. From Diego Maradona's infamous "Hand of God" goal, to a defender who scored all 4 goals in a match that ended in a 2-2 draw, to a goalkeeper who diligently guarded his post even when the game was called off due to dense fog. Sports writer Evan Ream tells us about his book about the story of Sacramento Republic FC and his journey to writing soccer stories, starting from when he fell in love with soccer as a 14-year-old. Then visit Mexico City — home to an intense soccer culture, flying wrestlers, monumental murals, floating gardens, and a sinking cathedral.

 

The Impact of Tires

 Today the News Cycle focuses on the impact of driving in a small town. Today we focus on the effects of driving in a small town. We connect Davis to the larger issues of unsafe driving and the growing gas prices that cost individuals and the greater planet. Zachary Schroeder and Satya Jackson Dunning have the stories. Then, Chase Bruno walks us through the difficulty teenagers have parking and how it affects their lives, then Jasper Gegorian Miller gives us insight into a potential resulting consequence: becoming late or tardy to school.
