Teatime Declarations tells the story of the complex, intriguing, and entertaining relationship between cricket and geopolitics. The podcast focuses on the sport we love through the lens of war, empire, politics, diplomacy, and society; or on geopolitics through the lens of on-field heroics, off-field scandal, and everything in between. Each episode will dive in to one topic on this theme, and your hosts Jonathan Russell and Paul Seligman will bring you into the conversation they were probably having anyway.

    Episode 14 - Counties vs Cities

    Counties vs Cities Does The Hundred's city-based franchise model pose an existential threat to England's 18 First Class Counties or a potential cash cow to save them from financial misery? What does it mean for fans and for the national side? And is it evolution or revolution within the game we love? Join Paul and Jonny for some early season throwdowns, some newspapers in the changing room while it rains, and a return to beige buffets after a winter of austerity. Teatime Declarations is your favourite cricket x geopolitics podcast that plays at everything and leaves nothing. Follow us on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and all the socials.

    Episode 13 - The Bharat Army

    The Bharat Army Fresh on the heels of India's test victory over England, bang in the middle of the IPL, and just days ahead of the Indian elections, this episode looks at partition. We consider Indian independence from the UK, its relationship with Pakistan, and its national identity, with a particular focus on how this has all been reflected in cricket in the subsequent 77 years. We ask whether the IPL trumps the world cup in Modi's India? Whether its worth risking losing to Pakistan to try and engineer a win? And what the world would have been like with Virat Kohli and Babar Azam in the same side?

    Episode 11 - First-Class or Nothing

    First-Class or Nothing This episode unpacks the finding of the The Independent Commission for Equity in Cricket (ICEC) that cricket in England is elitist and exclusionary. We question why 77% of English test batters who have debuted since 2011 have been privately educated. And we explore the history of the Gentleman vs Players fixture as we unpick the relationship between the class system and cricket. Teatime Declarations is a podcast that looks at cricket through the lens of states, societies, and their interactions. Jonny and Paul talk you through their reflections on the beautiful game, and the difficult questions it poses for our life and times.

    Episode 10 - Media Matters

    Media Matters This episode discusses the symbiotic relationship between media and cricket. We consider the free-to-air debate, broadcast media investment in the game, and reflect on the sounds of summer. And we ask "have SkySports and Test Match Special been forces for good or bad?" Teatime Declarations is a podcast that walks before being given out. It sounds like champagne corks being popped at 11:55 in St John's Wood. It brings cricket and politics together like an Ian Bell cover drive. And it is brought to you by Jonathan Russell and Paul Seligman. Follow us on X, Threads, or Blue Sky @TDeclarations.

    Episode 9 - Rebels For The Wrong Cause

    Rebels For The Wrong Cause This episode explores apartheid in South Africa, the international cricket boycott and its impact. We discuss the D'Oliveira Affair, the English rebel tours, and whether a similar boycott would work on Taliban Afghanistan. Teatime Declarations is a podcast that fiddles in the corridor of uncertainty between cricket and geopolitics. Jonathan Russell is your opening batter and Paul Seligman is your lethal wicket taker.

    Trailer

    Teatime Declarations is a new podcast that plays in the corridor of uncertainty between cricket and geopolitics. We take you on an indulgent journey through history and international affairs through the lens of cricket. And an even more indulgent discovery of cricket through the lens of states and societies, empire and underdogs, diplomacy and war, money and scandal. So far we’ve looked at match fixers and bookmakers, religion and populism in India and Pakistan, and national identity in Australia. We’ve speculated about Saudi and Chinese investment in cricket, unearthed some unlikely stories of Jewish impact on the sport, and uncovered an unexpected benefit of Brexit. But we’ve also had a great natter about The Ashes, England’s World Cup failures, and The Hundred. So join Jonathan Russell and Paul Seligman, and subscribe so you don’t miss future episodes.
