Episode description
The soccer world was shocked by the death of renowned U.S. soccer journalist Grant Wahl at the World Cup in Qatar. Then came the conspiracy theories claiming his death was caused by the COVID vaccine.

We ask Gounder about her decision to speak out about her husband's death, and about his legacy.
