From the publisher
Gideon Haigh and Pete Lalor have been writing about cricket, and talking about music, books, movies, television and life, for nearly fifteen years. Now they do it with a podcast recorder handy, which sometimes they remember to turn on. Stand by for a podcast full of insights and lacking in organisation.
