Melbourne show date change, and our Ashes preview
🕑 Added 2021-12-07 00:14:33 +0000 UTCAloha, Hawaii. The old Omicron has got the better of us, with South Australia's restrictions on those incoming from Melbourne, so we've had to move Chris Rogers and TFW Live to January 12, before the fifth Test. Tickets are transferable or refundable. Hopefully though it just means more people will have time to come. The discount codes for those of you receiving this message are here. The Adelaide show will proceed as planned on December 14.
Ajaz Patel, and mercifully the final pre-Ashes show
Season 11, Ep 8: Thank providence, this is the last one. No more predictions and speculation. Except for this week. The teams, the tactics, the insecurities. Some Mariah Carey, some Happy Birthday Sachin, and a lot of time given to the ten wickets of Ajaz Patel. Plus, Tim Peach from the BBC joins the show to talk about the behind-the-scenes podcast he has spent a year making about the process of England's Ashes preparation.

Story Time 73 – On the discovery of yet another Marsh
This week, a partially hidden Marsh whose work we have never touched on before. Not Jack, Geoff, Rod, Mitchell or Shaun. Also, back to Betty Wilson and Una Paisley, a visit to Brisbane's combination Lord Mayor and pitch curator, and Wasim in the pub in Manchester.
