In Part II of this two-part conversation, retired Globe and Mail TV columnist John Doyle returns to talk a little bit more about soccer but mostly about our shared fascination with television. 

The two of us tackle several of today's biggest TV challenges. For example: are late night talk shows going the way of the western? Does Crave sensation Heated Rivalry live up to the hype? Is funding at a crossroads in Canada? And because he simply can't help himself, Doyle also manages to put the world soccer body FIFA in context. And folks said it couldn't be done!

While the World Cup rages on (without Canada, knocked out on Saturday by Morocco), continue reading Doyle's expert take on the beautiful game in the pages of The Toronto Star. For his take on TV today, hear him now on brioux.tv: the podcast.
