Co-hosts Alex Moss and guest co-host Matthew Kiernan are back with a new episode ahead of the PDC World Cup of Darts!

The boys start the show with a look back at the European Tour action in Leverkusen, and discuss Dave Chisnall's victory at the European Darts Open, along with Ross Smith's run to a second European Tour final of the season.

Alex and Matthew also review the latest weekend of the Development Tour, which saw Beau Greaves become the first female title winner, before looking ahead to the World Cup of Darts this week, making their picks in the first ever Weekly Dartscast Parlay, and finish the show with a discussion about alcohol in darts.

Oskar Lukasiak (13:58) calls in ahead of playing in his second PDC World Cup of Darts for Sweden this week. Oskar looks back on his impressive debut in the tournament last year, and partnering Dennis Nilsson to the quarter-finals, as well as reflect on his career so far. The Swede discusses his success as a youngster, setting a record for the youngest player to hit a nine-dart finish in a competition at the age of 12, and his resurgence over the last 12 months winning a Challenge Tour title and making strides on the PDC Nordic & Baltic Tour.

An-Sheng Lu (44:28) also stops by ahead of making his PDC World Cup of Darts debut this week. Lu looks back on qualifying for the pairs tournament, and securing a debut for Chinese Taipei, and his darts career so far from how he got into the game to emerging on the steel tip scene this year on the PDC Asian Tour and World Cup qualifiers.
