Greg Cote Show: World Cup final-4 predix, Greg takes PKs, Catchphrases and more

The latest edition of The Greg Cote Show podcast -- Episode 332 -- is out now! Listen on Apple, Spotify or wherever you pod. Also subscribe for free and watch on our GCS YouTube channel!

Topping the new show’s marquee:

• Myself and Chris on the men’s FIFA World Cup quarterfinal matches and the resulting heavyweight semifinals: France vs. Spain on Tuesday and Argentina vs. England on Wednesday. Mbappe vs. Lamal, Messi vs. Kane/Bellingham! FIFA does not deserve a final four this glorious. Who’ll reach the final and what nation will raise the trophy? We got that here. And check out cotecup.thegregcoteshow.com for constant live updates.

• You all hated that we skipped the Catchphrase Countdown last week. Well, it’s back. Our Top 70 Countdown returns with an exclusive reveal on numbers 18 and 17!

• Details on my upcoming penalty kick challenge on the Le Batard Show this week.

This is our 332nd episode overall and 29th of 2026, and we welcome you back as always. Also on the new show:

• Personal good-news updates on our new Sex & the Animals book and on our racehorse, Isla Grande.

• Debut of our new podcast segment, “Who’s Good?”

• Zoom freeze.

• The ownership history of my childhood home, 1440.

• Top 5 columns: Our most-read from June.

• New Dad Jokes and Three Facts, Jack!

• A tease on next week’s show. Hint: New York City. (I think that was more than a hint.)

There’s all this and more on our new GCS #332! Aside from occasional bonus emergency episodes (like the recent one on Heat/Giannis), a new show drops every Monday morning at 7 on Apple Podcasts, Spotify — wherever you pod -- and also at miamiherald.com. Find our entire show catalog with all 332 episodes HERE. (We also simulcast on Sirius XM radio Channel 145 Mondays at 5 to 6 p.m.)

Listen wherever you get your podcasts or (for even more fun) watch on our GCS YouTube channel.

Our podcast debuted in March 2020 just as the pandemic hit (coincidence; don’t blame us) and we thank you all, our pod family, for your great and growing support. Please continue to listen, rate, review, subscribe (it’s all free) and tell friends and family, too!

Also check us out at The Greg Cote Show on YouTube, and follow @TheGregCoteShow on it’s-still-Twitter-to-me. And visit thegregcoteshow.com website and click the microphone symbol to leave us a message, or click “Shop” for our merch store. Shoppin’ It!
