Fantastic Podcast. Wish it came back

This is an amazing podcast. Syed provides great balance to the highly energetic Flintoff and Savage. Lots of fun, honesty, and entertainment. As a Table Tennis enthusiast, I was seeking for a Table Tennis podcast and stumbled upon this podcast which covers all sports in general, particularly Football, Cricket, and Table Tennis. I only wish the podcast would return for another season.

binge

came across this by chance in USA. Binged it. The best podcast ive had the pleasure of listening to, spoiled only by the opinionated ping pong guy.
Freddie and Robbie are superb, honest, open, funny. The other guy doesnt have the wit or personality to match those two.
Still, pit up with the banality of Matthew and enjoy Robbie and Freddie.

Whoever pieced together this trio is a genius

Matthew does a wonderful job of keeping the boys under control and steering the conversation, his journalistic and sports experience are key in making this podcast brilliant. Freddie is hilarious and so quick witted and Robbie, oh bless him, Robbie. What a lovely bloke and both of them have amazing stories to share - listen and enjoy everyone.
