The Final Word live in Sydney - tomorrow
🕑 Added 2024-01-06 01:31:39 +0000 UTCStart as you mean to go on, they say. Which in our case means sending the first Wednesday email of the year out on a Saturday. Look, there has been a Test match to think about. Rizwan is attempting a ridiculous appeal against David Warner as we type.
But the most important thing is that the Sydney live show with TFW hero Michael Bevan has not yet happened. It's Sunday night at the Comedy Store, which is right next to the SCG. So come along if you're in town - tickets here.
Our run of TFW Daily shows for this match have been good fun, even the echo chamber of the stairwell when it was raining, and there have been significant moves afoot this week with Cricket Australia's top brass explicitly saying that they need to do more to support Test cricket in nations with less healthy balance sheets. We talk about that too.
Here are the audio links for the preview, plus days one, two and three. Day four to come later today.
The Best & Worst of 2023
Season 15, Episode 17: Happy New Year. As we wrap up what was a huge one in 2023, and roll over blinking into the new light of 2024, we take our annual look back on what stood out for the right reasons and what stood out for wrong. Plus we catch up with the Australian women's Test in India, and the Indian men's disastrous first Test in South Africa.

Here's the show.
Story Time 164 – Rugby League Island
This week, our title story takes us all the way back to 1997, to a magical island where strange creatures roamed. Was it Jurassic Park? Kinda, but with added Big Jim Wilson. Also this week, have we traced the Wally Hammond misadventure right back to its source? And how did a junior wicketkeeper end up at AEK Athens?
