0:43Chronic migraine is 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting four hours or more. Botox, onabotulinum toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine before they start. It's not for those with 14 or fewer headache days a month. It prevents on average 8 to 9 headache days a month versus 6 to 7 for placebo. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection causing serious symptoms. Allerge your doctor right away as difficulty swallowing, speaking, breathing, eye problems or muscle weakness can be signs of a life-threatening condition.

1:13Patients with these conditions before injection are at highest risk. Side effects may include allergic reactions, neck and injection site pain, fatigue and headache. Allergic reactions can include rash, welts, asthma symptoms, and dizziness. Don't receive Botox if there's a skin infection. Tell your doctor your medical history, muscle or nerve conditions, including ALS Lou Gehrig's disease, myasthenia gravis or Lambert-Eaton syndrome, and medications, including botulinum toxins, as these may increase the risk of serious side effects. Why wait? Ask your doctor, visit BotoxChronicMigraine.com, or call 1-800-44-BOTOX to learn more.

1:44Yeah, Maradona in 86, I mean, where'd you even begin? What can you say about Maradona that hasn't already been said? He's black, he's not, but people haven't called him that. I'm telling you, no one had it like Diego. There were talented players on our team, but we weren't allowed to do what he could do. It was like he was playing a different game. I remember trying to get the ball off him and you just couldn't, because he just held on so tight. He was doing things with the football that we just couldn't. He was literally picking it up and bouncing it on the floor with his hands. You know, I put him up there with LeBron and Michael Jordan as one of the greatest basketball players of all time.

2:32Sadly, we were playing football. You know, modern football is all about the system now, the team. It's not like the old days, the magic, where it was just about moving around, not even using your feet, just jumping up and punching it past the keeper. He had the left foot of Pushkas, he had the right foot of Pelé and the upper car of George Foreman. Football has rules and he did not stick to them, ever. I mean he took the rule book, chopped it up, racked it into a line, snorted it. Unbelievable. What a player. I don't know what drug he was taking but he had cocaine all over his face. He was definitely the biggest inspiration in my life.

3:27Welcome back to Finvers History. Joining me is Horatio Gould.

3:34And today I feel African. I feel disabled. Today I feel gay. Today I feel disabled. Today I feel like being pegged by a trans man. That's me responding to comments on my Instagram reels. The long road to Gianni Infantino. The peak press conference. We're talking about the history of the World Cup. It's World Cup fortnight. The World Cup is on, I think, as this goes out. I hope that was the plan. We'd be very stupid if it wasn't. Because we'll have just missed it. We've missed it. The end of the World Cup. The theme is over. Now the history of the World Cup. We've completely ruined this. This is going out during the England test summer.

4:17And it's a four-part series. We'll be joined by the Upshot. Probably, they're in our sphere, I'd say. I think so, yeah. Definitely. Of like, I don't know, just having a plan. Have a podcast that's researched, but ultimately you still just talk about people being gay and autistic. And pedos. And pedos, yeah. It's paying a full-time researcher just to talk about the Nazis' pedos being gay. Yeah, exactly. That's the sphere we're in. If you can research everything else, we'll just talk about how they're all pedos and gay and Nazis. okay uh but they do that but for sport yeah brilliant podcast they'll be in uh next episode but we're it's we're breaking the world cup down to four parts i'll say now this is one of my favorites i think it's amazing doing the research yeah it's been sort of fucked from the from the beginning people talking about the world cup's gone corrupt it's basically from the get-go it was found it's the least corrupt it's ever been it's got less corrupt over time Qatar was the cleanest World Cup there's ever been.

5:09It's crazy. Out the gate, just pure evil. Pure evil. But founded on a mad promise. Yes. He wanted to make a pure World Cup. Who's he? Jules Rimet. Yeah. The guy who founded it, which we'll get to. Obviously, this story begins in, I'd say, my favourite time and yours, 1890s Europe. Don't pull that push off the gate. pulling me down with you as you traverse we've hosted a podcast for a year and a half there's only so much distancing you can do now from this i still love the cognitive dissonance you operate in yeah no he says some wild stuff stuff you know i bet you know i'm allowed to leave some shots just because you're bowling doesn't mean that i'm you no what's happened to your stumps though um so we start this story in the 1890s or rather the guy that starts this story is a guy called jules rimae yeah a frenchman uh a mad frenchman yeah off his head off his nut yeah he's born in 1870s in a small village in france it's the 70s it's not the 70s it's the 1870s um uh but as a young man he moves to paris yeah and in the 1890s he begins breathing in the air right 1890s europe right a lot of mad it still smells of shit but there's some mad ideas around Yeah.

6:33You know, phrenology, the idea that you could see a criminal just by looking at how long his forearm was. It's the golden age of ranking races. Yes. Which ChatGT refuses to do. Yeah. But YouTubers do. Tier list. You know, if we're going to rank races now, let's do a clip for the S tier. So you've got S tier, A tier, B tier, C tier. OK. White. I don't see colour. he's left that one fair enough I thought we could do a little clip there what have you got found Charlie this is an obese baby unnamed from 1904 it's like the unnamed soldier I think it survived 11 hours although that baby looks older than 11 hours they don't start smiling until about 3-4 months I don't like them until they're at least 2 in a normal way yeah so that's that's the yeah that's not 11 hour baby fine Hitler's fat brother it's sort of

7:31so we're in the 1890s and jules ramey is a french lawyer i think he's had a pretty shit amateur football career he should be it's a slur not jules rimmer charlie what is muck rack get that off the screen get that off the screen is that one of your disgusting sites muckrack.com i'm not wrangling um so jules ramey is a frenchman who i think maybe been an amateur footballer for a bit and uh but when he moves to paris he realizes that everyone's very poor yeah and you get sad about that uh and also this is the era of amateur football yes so you can't do it you can't compete if you're being paid and i think yes and certainly in english sport and culture there's a lot of respect for the amateur and it's a class thing as we talked about in the cricket series yes uh it's the more noble thing is to not do it professionally do it for the love of the game professionalism ruins it ruins it it's prostitution with you sorry phonology yes yes professional phonology it's like that's working class phonology yeah that's not the gentleman the gentleman does it i don't take a fee when i conduct my phrenological experiments you're doing it as a as a excise in honor in curiosity yes a gift to the world yes to professionalize it would be to ruin it to ruin it it would take all the love out of it i have for it you know don't make your hobby your job yes yeah i'm not a phrenology prostitute no no god no i'm a phrenology pimp but you will use a lot of prostitutes in your experiments of course someone needs to categorize what's going on how big are their heads you know is that why is that why they're a prostitute is their head too big um i'm not drawing any conclusions but i am an author now yeah anyway so jules romay is in 1890s paris a lot of other crazy ideas are going on at this time who's around this is uh the birth of sociology in paris 1890s france this is the fantasy actually yeah it's funny that that's where it all came and bellepoch means like the good times good times yeah you view it as the good time yes exactly i called it the bellepoch um yeah so this is but what's very funny is that the stereotype of the kind of brooding depressed french nihilistic intellectual beret cigarette yeah sociology is invented with a text in 1899 by a guy called dirkheim and it's the the book is called suicide right and it's about how does Does that have a subtitle?

9:49No, it's just called suicide. And it's like, suicide is not just when you are mad, it is because the world is leaving you behind. And he basically, he frames suicide as a result of sociological stuff, rather than just a mad cunt. What is the response to your place in the social hierarchy? He takes a lot of data, and he finds that Protestants kill themselves more than Catholics, obviously. Right, why? Because we're not a burden to the state. um no because they have because they have less um ties to the community but but they're less involved it's less about the family it's about coming together it's more individualistic so he sort of there's nothing more individualistic than killing yourself yes exactly um so but he finds that prostitutes more than catholics which then sort of goes against the idea that it's it's just because you're a mad cunt that you kill yourself so this is the birth of sociology okay right it's explaining suicide that's the first that you're just mental not that you're just mental right although that can happen i'm sure um so to place i mean fifa is founded in 1904 to place that it is after suicide is explained in 1899 and it's before franz reichel jumps from the eiffel tower and accidentally commits suicide well suicide if you have to mean it if you're doing suicide yeah he thought he could fly so he wasn't suicide no well it was what's the definition a suicide i don't know um does right charlie's just googled does suicide require intent and the samaritans have got blocked us um defines to find suicide is the act of intentionally causing one's own death so you didn't commit suicide no um what's what what's the word for accidentally killing yourself unintentional self-inflicted death misadvent misadventure yeah it was a Misadventure.

11:43Yeah. The misadventures of Franz Reichels. The unintentional self-inflicted death. Yeah, so FIFA is founded in 1904. This episode is brought to you by Welch's Fruit Snacks.

12:28Remember to grab a few extra napkins. For a limited time at participating McDonald's. I get so many headaches every month. It could be chronic migraine, 15 or more headache days a month, each lasting 4 hours or more. Botox, Autobotulinum Toxin A, prevents headaches in adults with chronic migraine. It's not for those who have 14 or fewer headache days a month. Prescription Botox is injected by your doctor. Effects of Botox may spread hours to weeks after injection, causing serious symptoms.

13:34before this uh football is a game that is sort of barely uh international like england played scotland in the first international match in the 1870s and it's a game for posh people at this point yes this is where it starts off right yeah and it comes from the traditions of there's been medieval traditions early where you just have a big pig's bladder and you beat the shit out of each other and the ball's sort of nearby yeah go to the athelstone derby josh pew's from that game derby it's just a guy it's just a horde of men carrying a ball through the street is when people try and talk about football like early signs of football like fifa always try and say football was invented in china you notice this because they hate to give it to the whites they hate well they hate england yes there's a french federation yeah and they they're pissed off that we invented it yeah and they'll always say shit like it actually started in china went no they were kicking heads down the stairs yeah that's not the same it's not you can't say that's early football but then also this is this is very funny how this so this is we're watching footage of the historic derbyshire football match where someone throws a ball into a massive crowd everyone beats the shit out of each other it's quite funny this is at least 1667 this is basically uh this is what the Spanish think is English football.

14:52Yeah. This is, this is Sam Allardyce. Yeah. Originally. But there is a link to this. Our approach to England football is because we do that. We started with that. We started with this. Fucking get it off it. Fucking get out of it. Get rid of it. Put a challenge in. Yeah. Like a lot of Spanish footballers when they come over to England, they realise that in Spain, you don't applaud a slide tackle in the same way. In England, we applaud slide tackles more than anything. Yes, that's true. Like if you get stuck in, it's like, that noise, is the crunch. Yeah. That's what we believe in. Yeah. Do you imagine there are positions at all in the show of tide?

15:26I don't know. I think the ball is completely incidental. The level of tactical sophistication someone would have to have. I don't know if it's zonal. I think it's zonal. Is it the Gengen press? Is it like... I think if you're man-marking someone in that chord... I think that's a hate crime if you attack someone in that chord. So that... Yeah. The noise of a slide tackle. There's no greater sound. Yeah. There's no greater sound than Phil Babb, I guess, unintentional self-castrating himself on the pole, on the goalpost against Chelsea in 1998. Anyway, Jules Remy, he doesn't found FIFA, but he's knocking about.

16:05The founding members are like, who are the founding members? France. England go, no, this is woke nonsense. Yes. So it's France, Belgium, Denmark, Netherlands, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. It's very similar to the EU. Yes. Where we ignore them to begin with because we think we're better than them. And then we come crawling back. Yes. It's the same sort of. And I do find it fascinating the tension between England and France where, and I would actually make a link to Protestant and Catholic cultures. Please. Where England's sporting tradition of inventing sports. Yes. Having a laugh, not taking it that seriously.

16:40It's more of an excuse to get out and drink. Yes. It comes from the Protestant individual sort of, you can come up with your own rules. It's a village thing. you kind of self-organize and the french they don't come up with their own things they love a federation there's olympics fifa i bet they're the ones involved in the tennis like any of the england invent the sports yes and the french run a corrupt bureaucracy that runs like the catholic church or the eu yes exactly yeah that's that's that's the huge tension with uh the fucking break from rome at brexit early fucking fifa is that they the european federation we think it's It stinks basically.

17:18Yes. We can never really fit in. So they found this and then goes, no, that's Catholic bullshit. Yeah, because it's also like you're taking it too seriously almost. Yes, exactly. It's a laugh. Yeah. Well, we're all just having a bundle in the street with a ball. Guys, I don't know why you're making this. Why are you making it gay? Why are we all wearing suits smoking talking about... So, but initially it's all tied to the Olympics. Initially FIFA tries to start a tournament with just like Switzerland and Sweden and shit and everyone's like that rubbish fuck off then so they start organizing it in the olympics and uruguay win the first two uh titles in the olympics now it's all amateur yeah and i suppose the footballers uh at this day and age uh it's a bit like ray gun in the olympics dancing well it's it's a pure form yes it's untouched by commercial realities also professional discipline yes it's much more of an expressive yeah you know early form of the the sport or art form and it's it's only when you know the europeans start getting involved and it becomes a sort of commercial reality something else becomes yeah that the kind of the innocence is gone yes the idea of i'd say ray gun is a noble savage break dancing i imagine in a hundred years when break dancing is this huge commercial enterprise people look back and ray gun saying that was actually the golden age of break what have we lost what have we lost she was pretty pissed off with how people responded to it she sued people yeah now what is she sorry can we do what did she say she seems she was exploring mental health so was she that what's going because she made it in so surely she wasn't why was it so funny because uh it's like someone had asked me to break dance the minute before an olympic break dancing top 10 illis ray gun it's also her face like she looks like she's kind of she backs it it's a woman who's had too much chardonnay at a hen do and then starts just you know they go to an urban club and she starts doing this yeah taming the cobra I mean this is fucking Will Ferrell stuff in like you know there's also it's kind of break dancing yeah I mean that's not a good move it's break dancing Karen oh yeah the moving your hand towards your leg like that but genuinely and I don't mean this disrespectfully as well I genuinely I could do this I could do this and I did break dancing as we've discussed yeah for two terms at university um so have you got some of these in your locker no she's doing things that the break dance community don't agree with um yeah it just it looks there doesn't seem to be any physical skill involved anyway yeah this is what I imagine the early uh the 1920s Uruguayan team were like right in that they were like the best there's ever been but it's the 20s so i imagine it was a crock of shit it's great um but they win gold in the 1924 and 1928 olympics now so that is why when fifa uh now this jules romei guy uh he becomes uh the president of fifa in 1921 i think and he's like we've got to get rid of this amateur thing but we have to pay them the olympics are like no that would ruin it but then he so he goes fuck it i'm gonna start a tournament a breakaway tournament and he had fought in the first world war and he thinks what if there's a football tournament that would replace war right straight eurovision basically yeah yeah eurovision's around of course at this point uh eurovision's the oldest tournament in england it had started in the 16th century with just a bunch of straight blokes um sort of beating up gays in the street.

21:04Which wasn't, yeah. That's the original Eurovision. That's the founding principles. The founding principles. Which is really swayed. It has completely changed. Okay, Eurovision, I don't watch it anymore because it's changed too much. From a village in Derbyshire beating the fuck out of a gay bloke. Right, that was the original Eurovision. They chuck a gay bloke out a window and then they all scrabble to beat them up. Right? It's now unrecognisable. It's got rich roots. It has, yes. In English culture. And did you watch the English version of Eurovision this year? I genuinely, computer says no, whatever it's called.

21:31Yeah. I genuinely wanted to emigrate watching that. Where? To Europe? No, to anywhere. I genuinely want... Because you were ashamed? I was deeply ashamed that this is our country. I genuinely thought about joining the fucking Unite the Rally, Unite the Kingdom Rally, when I saw this. It was bad, but it's better to do silly than serious. Because before we used to get knocked out when we're singing ballads, and that's embarrassing to be like, my love and heart will go on. I don't think it's... No, I don't think it's embarrassing. This is... It's more embarrassing... No. It's less embarrassing to do weird shit and come last because we just know we're coming last.

22:05But do you think we should take it more seriously? Look, there's nothing wrong with doing the balance. It's a gay competition. Do you think we should put Harry Styles up? Well, why don't we? I don't know why. Why don't we just try and win it? Let's just fucking... We'd clean sweep. Like, we can't win the actual World Cup, the Football World Cup. We could easily win this. Yeah. We're like, we've got Harry Styles. We've got all of them. We've got fucking Paul McCartney. Put Paul McCartney on. Elton John. You know? But I guess the truth is it's like the early World Cup. It's about amateurs, right?

22:34Yes, I guess it is. And we've got too much of a professionalized music industry. What is the actual criteria for being in Eurovision? The truth is the reason why the UK, though we produce the best music by far compared to Europe, we come last in Eurovision every year. What's going on there, the dissonance, is we've got such a professionalized music industry. Yes. And it's so easy if you're talented to become professional here because it's such a rich scene comparatively. Yes. that if you're an amateur, you have to be complete crap, right? Yeah. Whereas in Romania, the greatest singer in Romania is still an amateur.

23:07Yes. And they put them forward, it means something. But this is very much the tallest. Well, the greatest singer in Romania is probably a sex slave. Let's be real. Let's be real about it. Thanks for keeping it real. Let's be real about it, okay? No, the British entry into Eurovision was a disgrace. Yeah. And it's the first time I felt like joining a United Kingdom rally. And if they got a Vox by me... I don't know if the United Kingdom are talking about Eurovision. No, they're not. but they should be. They should be. It might be the opposite vibe to Eurovision. Well, I can't do this at the Palestine mark.

23:32Where's the march for... I don't know if that was the number one issue. I don't think Elon Musk was zooming in to say your Eurovision entry is disgrace. This is how far this country has fallen. Right? But, you know... Look, mum, no computer. I do think there's a lot of links to Eurovision and our approach to it where we're not taking these tournaments seriously because we have too high... We should get Paul McCartney out. We have too high opinions of ourselves. Well, yes. And then there will be... What will happen, similar to football, we'll finally take it seriously and we'll get beaten and it'll be a national embarrassment.

24:03Yeah, that's why we need to get Paul McCartney out and just take it seriously, win it, and then go, oh, fuck it, we'll let... A medley with Harry Styles, Paul McCartney, Dua Lipa. Let's just fucking... Just fuck off. We're better than you. Because we need it now. We're in the toilet. Imagine if we got Harry Styles, Paul McCartney, and Dua Lipa, and Elton John out, medley, eight minutes, and then they all just left going, fuck off. Yeah, and we made fun of everyone saying, you're never going to make it. Stupid. Go back to being a dentist. One of them was an assistant for a dentist. And then the fucking Bulgarian.

24:32It's like the San Marino football team. They've all got other jobs. Yeah, and then the Bulgarian one was like, ranga-ranga-ranga. Have you seen them? Yeah, I thought that was quite offensive. I thought it was incredibly offensive. Literally, the winning Eurovision is ranga-ranga-ranga. It's like the crazy frog in the Indian or something. It was incredibly offensive. Anyway. Israel came very close to winning. That would have been absolutely hilarious. It was so close because I was watching on the night and so many boos in the room. but they came second on the audience vote swept up in the audience vote which is interesting well if I may I think it might be because there are people who really support Israel full stop so they might not even be watching the show but they want to support Israel in any case we did a podcast earlier today the other podcast we do and that was the point I made and now he's just raised it as if it's his own right Charlie I don't think you should get political Charlie I am very political he just said what I said on another podcast and miss his own opinion.

25:27Shameless. To the person whose opinion you took. If you're doing that, the person whose opinion you took can't be in the room. Yeah? You have to do that on your other podcast, although because he was in the room as well. Yeah. So yeah, it's a smoking era of a pub. Yeah. So, anyway, so this Jules Ramey guy, he's like, let's build a tournament that's professional. We'll actually pay the players. fuck off the IOC and so we get to the first World Cup which is held in Uruguay and they'd won the Olympics tournaments in 1930 so that's why Uruguay have four stars in their badge because of the two Olympics and the two World Cups which is like well alright what's the rules then well we can all just ask me anything I got fucking chomping my Frosties 500m swimming badge on yeah well they might as well be the swimming badges I put a star for my swimming badges yeah they might as well be fucking brownie for cub badges anyway so 13 teams compete Egypt were going to compete.

26:23They didn't. They missed their boat. They missed the boat. Fair enough. Not today. Now. That's a big not today, actually. Big not today. An iconic not today. Not this month. Yeah. In history's great not today's. That must be. To miss the boat for the first World Cup. We should do that. We should do a list of. History's greatest not today's. So now. Mexico and the United States. Argentina. Bolivia. Brazil. Chile. Paraguay. Peru. you're obviously belgium france romania yugoslavia yeah now more european countries uh are invited but they all say no yeah why is it in uruguay where is that fair enough they seem that what even is that country yeah uh and then you're it's also in the aftermath of the great depression so uruguay are offering to like pay for people's transport yeah uh but still people are still a relatively new country it's a tiny country as well but i guess the fact they've won the two olympics that's like a huge sense of national pride yes for them and it must be said that their their playing style the reason they were so good supposedly is that they they weren't throwing a ball out of a window and beating everyone up they were passing it it was revolutionary yeah it was they were passing it like sideways yeah incredible um so they had a massive rivalry with argentina i mean south american football rivalries it does take another level i think and throughout this whole story yeah they have it's never a laugh which is funny when you consider that when we get into the 70s we've got a lot of rivalries there's a lot of hooliganism and there's a lot of bad stuff that happens with british fans but it's still it's fundamentally having banter doing coke and pit beers but here it's like they they're chopping referees heads off they're calling all the other team goat fuckers yeah but also bear in mind that like european rivalries when germany play holland in the 1974 world cup final i mean germany had occupied holland 20 years previously 30 years previously had killed holocaust holocaust sorry that's our patreon that's our patreon they're not holocaust be thy name um they'd holocausted them yeah uh and then they're just like oh yeah it's a bit of a ding dong it's just a game you know and these guys are assassinating defenders for scoring an own goal no one's laughing though are they no it's intense anyway so uh uruguay argentina hate each other so they get to the final and they they don't trust each other so they have to i think the first half argentina play with their ball that they brought yeah like they're three yeah and uruguay play with their ball and uruguay end up winning i mean that people the rival fans are chucking rocks at the players yes so i think at one point the players are chucking them back there's a black player yeah and pretty much early on everyone they don't have the most enlightened opinions about black players to this day in Uruguay and Argentina.

29:12I would posit. But back then in the 30s there, so they're throwing rocks at the black player. Then the black player pick up the stones and throws them back to the crowd. Then also there's a guy called like the maimed one. What's he called? El Manco. The maimed. He'd lost part of his right forearm in an accident with an electric saw. And despite the disability, he scores Uruguay's first ever World Cup goal. Amazing. but do you agree we should sort of chalk these titles off this is not a world cup win no if one of your players has not is disabled yeah it's basically the the paralympics yes it is the paralympics um they win 4-2 and they the first people to lift the jules romei trophy which is this 14 inch gold statuette of nike the greek goddess of victory nike yeah that's where that comes from that's where it comes from so uh that's the first world cup 1930 eurogride win but who gives a shit yeah now they do yeah they do but come on a big deal now things start to get really interesting okay because this is this is the long road to qatar this is the long road to gianni infantino yeah this is long road to i am gay i am retarded he didn't say i'm retarded no he millionaire who had ginger hair once says that he feels like a disabled gay african um it's amazing there's a heckle put down it's pretty good what i think that's racist well today i am african anyway so the next world cup is in 1934 yeah otherwise known as mussolini's world uh let's we haven't jumped into the hot bath of mussolini it's a fucking hot bath yeah it's a delicious bath we're saying we will be doing mussolini but it's he's the first he's the he's the compucha mother of fascism.

31:01And though he's a fascist leader, because he's got an Italian name, hard to take him seriously, he does sound like a type of pasta. He does? Mussolini. Everyone does. Yeah, tomato a la Mussolini. Mussolini, fish pasta. Delicious. Yeah. Mussolini, the fascist, patient zero, the sourdough starter of fascism.
