  • Relaxed Chats with Genuine People

    It’s so refreshing to hear interviews with career cricketers who never quite made it to international stardom. There’s a wholesomeness and relatability to Matt’s conversations with his guests as a result. Feels like a chat with a friend rather than an orchestrated sporting highlights list. Great job Matt!
