HR 1 – World Cup Madness, Peña Injury & QOTD

from In The Loop

ITL dives into what they're calling June Madness as the 2026 FIFA World Cup continues to captivate fans across the country. The guys debate why the tournament has exceeded expectations, how it compares to other major sporting events, and whether the World Cup has officially earned a permanent spot on America's sports calendar. Then the focus shifts to the Houston Astros after Jeremy Peña suffered an injury. ITL discusses whether Peña's absence feels like a major buzzkill for a team that has been playing some of its best baseball and how the Astros can respond without one of their biggest stars. The hour wraps with today's QOTD: What are some things in life that seem better than they actually are? The guys and listeners share the most overrated experiences and trends.
