With the Summer Olympics behind us, it is time to turn to the Premier League. Considered by many soccer/football fans to be the best of all leagues around the world, the Premier League is the NFL of the UK — by far its most popular sport. This episode pits MediaTalk host and Arsenal-fan Mike Reynolds against an entire family of season ticket holders for the Tottenham Hotspurs, led by S&P Global Market Intelligence Kagan analyst Richard Berndes. Together, they discuss existing and future rights deals for the Premier League in the US, UK and EU; the role of streaming in growing fandom; and the potential for more games to be played in the US. Finally, they tackle the prospects for new and old Premier League teams.
