Every Story Time host, everywhere, all at once
🕑 Added 2023-03-08 04:51:51 +0000 UTCSometimes you get the chance to do something special. We didn't even consider the possibilities inherent in this when preparing a Story Time for Adam and Geoff to record in someone else's hotel in Indore. But Bharat was there, and Daniel Norcross has arrived to do commentary on the second half of this series, and so all four people who have hosted Story Time more than once were in the same place at the same time. As was Brettig in a Box, and some other cameos.
This is Story Time 125 - a very special anniversary of being five sixths of the way to 150 - and we celebrate with a seven-person Battle Royale of Nerd Pledge.
Your Nerd Pledge numbers this week:
3.74 - Angus Digby
9.42 - Matt Wust
9.30 Anna Forsyth
3.72 - Sam Hartmann & Paul Richards
2.80 - James
6.00 - Not That Tim Minchin
That's the video up top, the audio is here.
The Yorkshire hearings, with George Dobell
Season 13, Ep 26: With the ECB's hearing into Yorkshire's racism charges underway, we spend the second part of the show speaking to the reporter who has done more work on this story than any, The Cricketer's George Dobell. Before that, recording in Ahmedabad ahead of the fourth India-Australia Test, there have been fireworks in the early rounds of the Women's Premier League, Western Australia keep dominating the Shield, South Africa's quicks do the damage against West Indies, Bangladesh host England in ODIs, and we have a perfect link with our Nerd Pledge answer.
Your Nerd Pledge number this week:
8.61 - Dane Hansted.
The start of this ep is up as video, the interview with George will go up later, and the full audio is here.
TFW Daily
We roped in Daniel for a preview before the Indore Test, we had a shirtless match referee Chris Broad distracting Adam and Bharat after it, and we had the usual duo doing their match-day work during. It's a family affair this week. You'll find most of it in your audio feed and some extra bits and pieces on video. The channel is here.
As we wind our way out of Indore, a few memories...
Khawaja and Smith in the pre-game nets.
Straight to the point in Madhya Pradesh.
Very tame victory celebrations, espionage style.
Your hosts, heading to the door.

Way more than five sixths of a fabulous Story Time, one of my all-time favourites.
