    New Year, New England?

    Join Andy Zaltzman and Felicity Ward for the post mortem of Australia's massacre of England at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
    Featuring: 
    The shittest England innings in the long history of Ashes cricket - comparable to finding a dead fox in your garden. 
    Does Joe Root have the energy to lead England when he looks like he lacks the energy to rub out a scratchcard?
    Consider Andy's revolutionary idea for the future of international cricket, while he and Felicity solve all of England cricket's problems. 
    Hear an MCG-themed song exclusively written for the Urncast by Australian comedian Geraldine Quinn. https://www.geraldinequinn.com/
    Your questions are answered in a special Bugle Urncast Q&A section.
    And enjoy a bumper Stat Whack section, commemorating England's phenomenally bad showing in Melbourne.

    Does Santa like a Sledge?

    Hear about Joe Root having possibly the worst cricketing day ever, bookended with two painful blows to the testicles. 
    Jos Buttler made a bid for one of the oddest Test appearances, complete with great catches, dropped catches, and standing on his own stumps. 
    Hear Andy and Felicity fire questions at Steve Smith and Joe Root in the post-match press conferences. 
    And how exactly do you pronounce Marnus Labuschagne?
    Starring Andy Zaltzman and Felicity Ward

Bugle to bugle

If only watching the ashes was as enjoyable as listening to this.

historydog ,

Very entertaining

Quite silly and very funny, top stats worth listening to by themselves; Geraldine Quinn’s song made me laugh…
