The Urnbelievable Ashes Podcast

UK comedian Mark Steel, Australian writer Declan Fay and a very special guest join us to talk about England's 4-0 Ashes thrashing.

Felicity and Andy return for 2018 and welcome ABC Grandstand legend Jim Maxwell ahead of the SCG Test.

Felicity and Andy are too full to provide a proper episode this week, so here's the surprisingly satisfying audio equivalent of a cold turkey and stuffing sandwich.

Felicity attempts not to get too smug and frankly Andy would rather talk about anything else.

No, obviously, but do listen to Andy, Felicity and Jarrod Kimber give you a longer and funnier response ahead of the third Ashes test in Perth.

Felicity and Andy ignore the fact that the game is still going when they record and Jarrod Kimber reads out a letter devoted to Shaun Marsh.

Felicity tries to cheer Andy up as the second test approaches, Ben Stokes is a REALLY bad surprise party organiser and Jarrod Kimber reveals more than we'd like about Geoff Marsh.

The waiting is over! It’s finally here! The summer! The greatest cricket rivalry! The funniest podcast devoted to cricket in two countries!

Watch as English optimism melts away as fast as an ice cream in the Queensland sun/Australia pretend like they are in Bangladesh (delete as applicable).

Plus Melinda Farrell from ESPNcricinfo gives her take on Australia's women’s team retaining The Ashes.

Join Andy Zaltzman and Felicity Ward for the 2017/18 Ashes series as they obsess about people throwing and hitting a cricket ball around because whatever happens that's way preferable than thinking about the actual world right now.
