Grok Daily Podcast: FIFA World Cup 2026 - Boom or Bust for the US and Canada?
Is the 2026 World Cup, hosted by the US, Canada, and Mexico, set to be an economic boom or a risky bust? Join Steve Hesselton as he unpacks FIFA’s ‘We Are 26’ vision—48 teams, 104 matches, and a projected $5 billion boost with 40,000 jobs. From MetLife Stadium’s final to upgraded roads and hotels, there’s plenty on the line. But with 6 million fans, $11 billion for FIFA, and $50-$300 million costs per city, are taxpayers the wildcard? Fresh off Trump’s White House task force meeting, we explore: Can smart planning make this a win, or will it falter? Boom or bust—tell us your take! Like, follow, share, and tweet @stevehesselton on X. Stay curious with Grok Daily!
