In this episode, Zappa has returned from the sunshine state and joins Archie to interview the Chairman of Western United, Jason Sourasis. A passionate sportsperson, Jason grew up barracking for South Melbourne, a historically proud Greek club. Jason is the director and founding member of Strategic Financial Group Australia, which primarily invests in portfolios of assets within sectors, with sports being a high valued sector. According to Jason, Western United FC was the first public private partnership in sport to be identified in Australia.

Jason discusses the challenges and opportunities of building a club out in the West, the challenges COVID provided over the past 2 seasons, getting government support for our game and that stadium.
