Poker in the Ears PokerStars

With so much happening in the poker world in the first quarter of the year, James and Joe have had to postpone their annual pop culture special. Now, the guys are finally able to take a deep dive into the films and TV shows they've watched in recent months. Joining them as special guest reviewer – following in the footsteps of Niall Farrell and Sam Greenwood – is high stakes legend Phil Galfond. He discusses his unique televisual tastes, and passes judgement on 'The Menu', 'Glass Onion' and 'She-Hulk'. Meanwhile, Joe has seen pretty much every film released in the last six months, while James has been watching emotionally-draining dramas and refusing to finish 'Bullet Train'. Finally, there's a sport-themed edition of 'Superfan vs Stapes' to close out the show, as Tom Taylor Hall from the UK tries to win a #SundayMillionAnniversary ticket answering questions about F1.

Joe has just returned from ANOTHER trip to Vegas, where he was helping host a group of Red Spade Pass winners from Toronto. He talks about the experience that PokerStars provided, including VIP tickets to a couple of NBA games in LA, and a poker tutorial and tournament at Resorts World. Plus, the guys deal with some unfinished business from last week, running through all the winners in the major categories at the #GlobalPokerAwards, and speaking to the Rising Star in Content Creation, Caitlin Comeskey. James and Joe also cover a couple of other poker news headlines, before giving Marlo Nielsen (aka: LimeRickey) from Canada the chance to win a #SundayMillionAnniversary ticket in a Duran Duran-themed edition of 'Superfan vs Stapes'.

The guys are just back from Las Vegas, where James was named Best Broadcaster at the #GlobalPokerAwards, so share some stories from their trip, mostly relating to spending/losing a lot of money. They also recap their slightly-less-recent voyage to France for the first European Poker Tour event of 2023: #EPTParis. James and Joe talk to the players who finished first and second in the Main Event, Razvan Belea (@belearazvan on Instagram) and Peter Jorgne, and reflect on whether they should have queued for the steak restaurant that Matt Savage recommended. Finally, Adam Hemmings from the UK takes on Joe at general trivia in 'Superfan vs Stapes', hoping to win a #SundayMillion ticket and some PokerStars merch.

Lots to get through on this week's show. James and Joe recap an exciting, eventful and exhausting #PCA2023 and #PSPC, in the company of Niclas Thumm, the #PlatinumPass winner from Germany who came sixth in the PokerStars Players No Limit Hold'em Championship for more than $1m. They also talk about this year's #GlobalPokerAwards, where James, this podcast and the #PokerStarsTV live stream are in the running for trophies, and look ahead to the next big live event. Yes, even though they're still in post-Bahamas recovery mode, the guys are heading to France for the first ever #EPTParis. They run through the live streaming schedule (22nd – 26th February on the PokerStars Twitch and YouTube channels) and provide details of the Mini EPT Paris online series.

They talk about what's happening when, what's being streamed (on Twitch and YouTube) and what's being filmed for TV.

An exciting show with an incredible opportunity. In their first podcast of 2023, James and Joe catch up with the 'Platinum Five': the first players to qualify for the forthcoming #PSPC. Clement, Adrian, Christoph, Danielle and Daryl came to Barcelona in August 2019 to take part in the 'Chase Your Dream' promotion. Each of them received a #PlatinumPass; all of them have been waiting three-and-a-half years for the PokerStars Players No Limit Hold'em Championship. And from the first winners…to the last. The guys reveal how YOU could get your hands on the final Platinum Pass before the Bahamas. Yes, there's an exclusive #PITE contest awarding a $30k PSPC package. Terms and conditions apply.
