  • Love the podcast.

    Outstanding interviews. All very topical. My biweekly go to cricket podcast. Love how they give a look at the personal side of each interviewee.

    I don’t know much about horse racing but I have learnt quite a bit since I started following the podcast a couple of years ago.
