What really happened to Isak Andic, the billionaire founder of Mango?

In this episode of The Bubble Podcast, we unpack the growing mystery around the death of one of Spain’s most important business figures after new developments in the case raised fresh questions about what happened on that Montserrat hiking trail.

We also swap ideas for enjoying summer in Spain without spending a fortune, from affordable plans to the charm of verbenas, fiestas de pueblo and traditional summer festivals across the country.

And in the second half of the episode, we sit down with an immigration and relocation expert to talk about the most common bureaucracy mistakes people make when moving to Spain — and how to avoid them.

And finally, two of our least qualified sports pundits attempt to explain everything you need to know about Spain’s national football team ahead of the FIFA World Cup 2026, from Spain’s historic 2010 victory to cultural icons like Naranjito and Manolo el del Bombo.
