Pop Cricket Podcast Podcast

Guests, chat, laughter, and of course playing Pop Cricket; where the guests take on Pete to try and come up with the same score from their Top 10s. In this game, if your songs contain legs you score runs, if not it's a wicket. With Pete trying to 'catch them out', how pedantic can it get?
