The beautiful game meets the beautiful podcast! In the final Take A 20 episode of 2026, we revisit Zinedine Zidane’s shocking meltdown in the 2006 World Cup Final. There’s nothing Mark hates more than a French athlete who plays dirty! As this year’s World Cup prepares to kick off across North America, Josh and Mark reflect on their own status as global icons, and the legions of loyal fans who make that possible. It’s lots of gratitude, and a small dash of humility, as we sign off until 2027.
