Non-stop laughs
05/17/2023
Loosely cricket-based, fully based on having a good time and laughter. What could be better you ask? Well, throw England’s greatest ever bowler, and my favorite cricketer, into the mix. Go well from Colorado-based American with an English father! If it weren’t for him, I would’ve never even heard about cricket.
You’ve gone soft!

Well you sure threw Jimmy and the rest of the England team under the bus when interviewing Mel! You suggested that the Lords incident was to be discussed and as soon as Mel gave her opinion you agreed and moved on no discussion about how the Aussies will win at any cost! No push back at all! I have listened to this podcast from the beginning now I withdraw my support and will listen no more!
Exceptional Value

One of the best cricket podcasts going, guaranteed to tickle your funny bone whilst touching on the pertinent (and impertinent) news in the world of Cricket. Keep 'em coming, lads!
Too mean-spirited at times
08/04/2022
I used to listen to this podcasts at times, but the podders - especially Greg James - sometimes allow the edgy banter to veer into mean-spiritedness. In one recent podcast, James read a touching email from a listener who is working two jobs after losing his main job during the pandemic, and how he impulsively decided to watch an amateur cricket match for 15 minutes to lift his spirits. Shortly after reading the email, however, James mocked the reader with a sarcastic and dismissive remark - it was so needlessly rude that even one of the other podders (I believe it was Jimmy) reacted with a shocked chuckle. That started to turn me off the podcast, and the extended discussion in the next podcast that glorified heavy booze drinking has put me off it for good. Go well, indeed.
