Hello, welcome back to the studio podcast. I'm Mr. Kwonga. I'm Ryan Hunn. Ryan, how you doing? I am all right. Thanks, Bruce. Kwonga. How are you?

I'm actually really good. All right. Yeah, another book translated. No, but I think I've perfected my Mediterranean because it always takes me three attempts to

Perfect any new meal, and I've now got it right. I've got it right now. I'm gonna remember that if you haven't brought me around. That's a long time coming.

No. Well, that took a turn. Simon to go for good plays. No. Well, I'm glad you perfected your Mediterranean Cusco salads. Listen time. We take up pleasures. We take up pleasures where we can. Nice warm. Nice warm hearty meal for October. The leaves are falling. The Mediterranean Cusco salad comes out three months too late.

No, but you do it. You can't smoke Macro. That's the key. God. That's the key. I'm happy. You want to know I was happy. That's I'm happy. Nice. Well, I hope everyone else stays safe and staying well. And yeah, if you haven't subscribed to Wright's House yet, please go and find it. It should be on the podcast app of your choice. Maybe apart from Google podcasts because don't know what's going on with them. But again, just a little reminder.

I don't upload the podcasts. Other bits of admin, Moosogonga had a piece up on the ringer about Tony Kroos and aging gracefully. Yes, yes. If there was ever a man who was not qualified to talk about aging gracefully, it was Moosogonga.

I should not have got that piece. Well, I can't talk about regrets. So I was perfectly qualified to talk about that.

Oh, another dark turn. We're okay. We're okay, right? We're good. We're fine. It is a clown.

It's up on the ringer.com. Forch Lassoca. Go and read it. It's very good. Thanks to Connor, never into server for the great editing.

Like the editor, the only reason my pieces have remotely been readable is because of Connor.

Vision, I trust. Yes. There's always a moment I sense stuff off. I'm like, Oh, yeah. What do you think? And it's always like there's the anxiety of

I would add one take off.

The trash.

I said, Connor hates it. Is there any other admin? I think that's good for now. We're good for now.

So today, we're going to start with the very, very bleak story of the Yates report, which was published this week.

Commission by US Soccer Federation and highlighting systemic and widespread and sustained and sustained accusations of serious sexual misconduct and abuse through the NWSL.

That will obviously contain some pretty grim stuff. If you don't want to listen to that topic in the show note, you should be able to just skip forward to the Champions League if you tap the time code.

And then, yeah, we'll do the Champions League. We'll do that. We're going to talk a lot about severe and dormant, Jude Bellingham, a particular losing his job.
