Shownotes
Protesters at the upcoming 2022 World Cup in Qatar could face up to five years in prison and fines of up to 100,000 Qatari riyals (approximately $25,000). It's scary stuff all around, and it's almost a guarantee that foreign nationals will remain silent this fall. (Unsurprisingly, FIFA has stopped short of guaranteeing protesters' safety.) Rox and Ken discuss sportswashing and the consistency, or lack thereof, in sports related politics.
