AWVGCP! Another Winner - Very Good Cricket Podcast

Jarrod blows me away with how he keeps me interested in listening to this podcast, I can't wait for the next episode to drop, I have gone back to the start and listened to each and every one of them. Always interesting, It's amazing how may different cricket stories there are and the bredth and width of Jarrods cricket knowledge seems to limitless. I find this podcast to be highly entertaining and recomend it to every person in anyway interested in cricket. If like me you're a cricket lover, then this is an absolute must listen. Keep up the good work Jarrod. (and his team of course)

Outstanding analysis and discussion if you live and love cricket

This is the greatest cricketing community on the internet. Jarrod is a storyteller and data analyst of such skill and wit , paralleled only by his absolute passion, love and vision for game . I mean, anyone who has heard him talk about Associate Cricket or the future of cricket broadcasting will know this.
Also, special mention to the Axar Patel video /podcast. Professional analysis of highest degree. Goosebumps all the way through for 36 mins.

Fascinating, far-ranging podcast

I really enjoy cricket and grew up watching it in the 90s. What Kimber does here is connect cricket to wider political, cultural and economic trends, while still keeping it tied to the sport itself. I’ve learned more about English cricket, how cricket broadcasts are and should be created, and about the story of specific Australian cricketers here than I would have anywhere else. The depth, humor and fun far exceeds most anything else I’ve heard. Five stars for this gem that entertains and edifies.
