Dennis Chats World Cup On Radio 702 Cape Town - CBCT

Channel Nine Are Really Quite Shit - CBCT

Hey ya!

I don't know why I used such a crappy introductory line, but I did. I'm a rebel.

So, Cat and Dennis got together to do a World Cup preview. Just like everyone else really. Except that ours is good.

Well, it probably isn't, but we tried to make it different from everything else you have heard.

We tackled:

- The Top 653 things we want to see in the tournament;

- The Opening Ceremony;

- The warm up games;

- A guide to making World Cup banners; and

- Cat's best bets

So, sit back, listen in and enjoy our banter.

Oh yeah, we also have the Muller Award!

Not Another Bloody World Cup Preview - CBCT

Dennis was invited for a quick 11:47 minute chat with Ben Karpinski of Cliff Central radio in South Africa.

Take a listen!

Chatting World Cup On South African Radio - CBCT

Out of the blue this week, I was approached by Dennis Does Cricket follower Cameron Houweling.

Cameron wanted to know if we would be interested in doing a betting show for the World Cup.

Cameron is a semi professional sports punter who turns over in excess of AUD$100k per annum.

I had strong reservations about doing the podcast given my exposure to gambling in the past hasn't necessarily been a pleasant experience.

However, after a few chats with Cameron and also a private chat with Scott Ferguson who runs SportIsMadeForBetting.com, I decided to do it.

I wanted to understand how it worked, get a sense of the allure and provide something to our listeners who do gamble.

It is fair to say that there is a big amount of you who are into sports gambling and will find this episode worthwhile. I am also cognisent that there are others who will want nothing to do with it.

Either way, I urge you to listen as:

- I give my now considered thoughts on the moral issue;

- We educate on how it all works;

- Cameron provides some risk free bets that you can put on now; and

- We look at the best value bets for the tournament.

During the World Cup, I am going to take a starting stake of $100 and see if we can't double it.

The World Cup Betting Guide - CBCT

The 2014/15 Big Bash season has raised the bar in regards to attendences, fan interaction and overall acceptance as a mainstream product by the locals.

Now the English, the inventors of T20, are starting to worry.

Is their Natwest T20 Blast up to it?

Joining Cat and I to discuss the issue is the world's preeminent T20 cricket journalist Freddie Wilde.

Listen in as we tackle:

The Free to Air issue

Franchises versus County Sides

Marketing efforts

Pricing

Schedules

Weather??

Also, a reminder that we are running another Win A Bat competition.
