Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back during a busy week in the world of darts.

The team start the show with a look back at the first double-header of Players Championship events in 2024, and discuss if Monday's winner Luke Littler can qualify for the World Matchplay in his first year on the tour, as well as if Tuesday's champion Gary Anderson can translate his floor form into deep runs on the stage.

Alex and Burton also preview the upcoming World Seniors Championship and make their predictions for who will win the title at the Circus Tavern on Sunday, as well as how Phil Taylor will fare in his final World Championship campaign in his final year of competitive darts.

Phil Taylor (18:36) calls in for the first time to reflect on his iconic career in the game. The 16-time world champion discusses his early years in the sport, being taken under Eric Bristow's wing and then beating his mentor to win the Lakeside on his debut in 1990, breaking away to help form the PDC in the mid-90s, the fame at the height of his career, why he has decided this will be his last year playing in the World Seniors, and his plans for retirement.

John Henderson (46:59) also stops by ahead of his debut in the World Seniors Championship this week. The former World Cup winner looks back on life after winning that tournament in 2021, why he didn't kick on after that victory, losing his tour card and what the last two years have been like away from the PDC tour, rediscovering his love for the game last year, narrowly missing out on a tour card via the Challenge Tour, and his hopes for the rest of 2024.
