“Even with unknown subs padding-up. what’s not to like. Sharp, succinct analysis. My first choice to get to the nuts & bolts & deep dive of the days play in a entertaining, enjoyable pod. 👍👍
Go well England - cheers 🍻”

“Hi guys - I love your podcast and listen to it religiously. One thing I struggle with is your regular use of the “F-bomb”. In a crowded sports market, I use your pod to get younger members of my family to become cricket fans. This is hard to do when the language is often very colourful. Is there...”Read full review »

“Love the podcast guys. Would love to hear about the where are they now of Shield cricketers in the 80’s. For example former WA openers Mark McPhee and Shane Clements. McPhee died in a head on collision with a truck and Clements committed suicide.”

“Lemon needs to stop quoting song lyrics and singing when any word association comes to his mind. How can they call themselves the final word when Collins never stops speaking! Loves the sound of his own voice.”

“Adam and Geoff deliver their opinions on cricket both on and off the field. They do not pander to the agendas of boards or officials and, as such, deliver a balanced view on the issues of the day.
With ‘story time’, they also dive into the oddities regarding the history of the ‘great game of...”Read full review »

“Just wanted to say I am a big fan of the show. Been listening for a while now. An absolute truck load of information and stories that just boggle the mind and help lend an ear to some of the less glorified of cricketers around the globe. But this episode… boy oh boy… the lengths in which you go...”Read full review »
