Great chat and guests. Always enjoy each episode from start to finish.
Really am grateful to have this podcast to listen too, the interviews and in-depth analysis of matches and players really does give credit to the two guys. Well done and congratulations on your 200th episode. Ross147
Excellent podcast covering all things Snooker and also not afraid to veer into other interesting but related topics. Nick and Phil complement each other exceptionally and their journalistic nous is clear to see/hear. The only Snooker podcast I listen to currently as don’t feel the need to venture elsewhere. Often have excellent guests also. Highly recommended.
Excellent podcast always with great guests and interesting topics 👌
A great listen. Just don’t ask what Phil has for breakfast…. Better than Ken Doherty’s fried frogs though
