Grant has a wide-ranging interview with one of his dearest friends, Gabriele Marcotti of ESPN. They talk about his new book with Gianluca Vialli, Goals: Inspirational Stories to Help Tackle Life's Challenges; the influence that attending college in the U.S. and consuming American media has had on his work in England; the career decision he made to focus less on news-breaking and more on well-informed punditry; his thoughts on MLS 25 years after writing about the start of the league at Columbia Journalism School; the rise of cosmopolitanism in the English Premier League; how he approaches a typical work week; and some of the things he's interested in doing career-wise in the future.
Grant and Gabriele have covered World Cups together going back to 1998 and shared a house with other journalists during World Cup 2010 in South Africa.
