Podcast, The Rest Is Football – hosted by Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards – will be coming to Netflix as a daily TV show during the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
Filmed in a studio in the heart of New York, the show will feature game analysis, special guests, interviews and insights into the world’s largest sporting event.
There will also be reporters dialled in straight from the England camp and fan zones.
The Rest Is Football is one of the world’s biggest sports podcasts, with over 7 million monthly streams.
Speaking of the announcement, The Rest Is Football co-host Gary Lineker said: “We can’t wait to bring The Rest Is Football to Netflix for the 2026 World Cup. It’s a fantastic opportunity for the three of us to do what we love — talk football every day — but on a truly global stage. Expect all the usual analysis, honesty and plenty of laughs… just with a few more cameras pointed at us, all from the Big Apple.”.
The series will be produced by Goalhanger (The Rest Is History, The Rest Is Politics).
