The Voice Behind the World’s Most Popular Game

A wide-ranging conversation with Andres Cantor about soccer culture, talent, teamwork, and the evolution of the World Cup.

In today’s episode, I sit down with legendary Argentine sports commentator Andres Cantor for a conversation inside one of the most iconic stadiums on the planet. We talk about what shaped his career, how he’s seen the World Cup evolve over 16 tournaments, and why the United States still struggles to convert youth participation into true fandom. Andres shares what makes soccer culture so unique, from the pressure on players to the discipline required to spot talent early. We also explore teamwork, generosity on the field, and why the sport’s biggest stars often become its most selfless playmakers.
