  • Great Podcast But Upload Eps More Frequently

    I just recently started to listen to this podcast but I would maybe upload episodes podcasts more times a week for example previewing the WTC ,BBL,IPL, World Cups or international series every few days instead of doing 1 every Monday.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Weatherald on Smith v Archer, Head's brilliance and Test opening
Q: What is it like to be at the other end when Travis Head has been going ballistic?
It's cool. You take it for granted a little bit how good he is, because of the way he is, but then you walk out and bat with him and you see that he has immense confidence in what he's doing.
Weatherald on Smith v Archer, Head's brilliance and Test opening
Q: How's it been this week for you in the build up to a test match at the Adelaide Oval?
It's been pretty similar to what I would if I was back for a shield game, spending a lot of time at home, playing PlayStation, spending time with my wife and my dogs.
Bowling GAS with Cameron Green on Ashes eve
Q: Cameron, do you feel ready to bowl as many overs as needed?
Cameron expressed that he feels he can give his all with the ball after working hard on his fitness.
Bowling GAS with Cameron Green on Ashes eve
Q: Cameron, how do you feel about the lead-up to the Ashes?
Cameron mentioned that he tries to stay away from the noise but finds the buildup exciting.
BEARDMAN & WEIBGEN - Australia's next-gen superstars
Q: What is your ideal day off like?
It's probably more about going golfing and hanging out with mates for me rather than diving or fishing.
