La teoría de la salchicha: FIFA and the World Cup (HBO) (English)

Como de costumbre he dado con este tipo por casualidad John Oliver, conocido presentador de la television HBO. También conocida por sus series, que seguro no hace falta que os mencione.

El caso, que este hombre tiene un sarcasmo inteligente propio de cualquier británico y merece la pena escuchar esta diserción sobre el chollo de la copa del mundo de Brasil 2014.

Aún no tiene subtítulos en castellano pero lo podéis disfrutar en inglés.
