World Cricket Show

Feelin' hot hot hot.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss the fallout from Kevin Pietersen's sacking. Adam is angry. How has it come to this? Can Alastair Cook survive the pressure he's brought on himself? And what does the future hold for KP?

In addition, there's a trip around the world to discuss the big Test series going on in the southern hemisphere. The local derby between South Africa and Australia is underway, and New Zealand are one-nil up against India. Is this the best ever Kiwi side? And will India ever win away from home?

Also this week:

It's hotter than the Sun in the studio

Yet more disappointment in the pub quiz

Tony's been snowboarding, and come back with several new tattoos

All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - we're the original Snowboard Kids.

Partying partying yeah!

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss the departure of Andy Flower. Is a change of coach the right step for English cricket? And who takes over now?

In addition, there's one final trip Down Under to discuss the limited overs games there, plus an end-of-term report on Australia. Are they as good as they seem? And could they give South Africa a run for their money in the upcoming Test series?

Also this week:

It's Friday, Friday, gotta get down on Friday

Tony won't let anyone see his Tinder profile

Adam spent his childhood watching someone else play SSX Tricky

Tony regularly uses the podcast to impress women

Charity begins at home.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony discuss a good old-fashioned ICC fiasco. Are the proposals for the future of Test cricket a genuine attempt to bring some clarity and leadership to the game? Or just a cynical attempt to boost BCCI, ECB and CA revenues?

In addition, there's (reluctant) discussion of a good old-fashioned England cricket team fiasco in Australia. With the one-day series gone now too, is it time to get Alastair Cook's head on a spike?

Also this week:

Tony doesn't know how tall St Paul's Cathedral is, and it costs Adam money

A WCS T-shirt turns up in an unlikely place

There's nothing funnier than a pantomime

Blue Monday comes and goes, and Adam doesn't sleep a wink

Good grief.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony attempt to make sense of Australia's 5-0 drubbing of England. After a desperate performance in Sydney, is it time for wholesale changes to the England team? Is KP's neck on the block? And is the Australian bowling attack the best in the world?

Plus, Adam selects arguably the most straightforward composite XI of his career, and goes off on one about how much Jonathan Agnew annoys him.

Also this week:

Adam has an underwhelming start to 2014

Tony is a bit of a sad sack

A comprehensive preview of the one-day series

Wet January begins

Tony's taking this sh*t to the pontoon

Start 2014 as you mean to go on - by listening to two idiots on the internet.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony reflect on YET ANOTHER Ashes hammering for England in Melbourne. After getting themselves into a winning position, was this the most disappointing performance yet? And does it cast doubt on the futures of the captain and coach? Plus, was Graeme Swann selfish to retire and leave his team-mates in the lurch?

In addition, they discuss a thrilling Test series in South Africa, and wonder whether Jacques Kallis ought to be considered the greatest cricketer of his generation (or possibly ever).

Also this week:

Adam made it back from Paris, to everyone's relief

Tony got clothes for Christmas, and isn't happy about it

New Year is almost always rubbish

Adam's brother is trying to ruin Adam's life

Ho ho hopeless in Australia.

On a very special 2013 Christmas Special, Adam and Tony glumly don their Santa hats and reflect on England's loss of the Ashes in Perth. How have Australia been able to turn things around so comprehensively? Mitchell Johnson has been crucial, but has the most pivotal player in fact been Brad Haddin?

As for England, where do they go from here? Has Pietersen played one stupid shot too many? Is it the end of the road for some of the other senior players? Or should the selectors resist the temptation for wholesale changes?

Also this week:

Adam's dentist is definitely going to have a good Christmas

2013's hottest celebrities join in the festive celebrations in the studio

Yeah but no but yeah but no but there's a snake in my boots!

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony sift through the wreckage of another England capitulation at Adelaide. What has happened to this team? Why are their brains so scrambled? Why do their batsmen keep getting caught on the leg-side? And is there any conceivable way they can turn things around?

Let's not forget about Australia - what have been the catalysts for their revival? Is it all about Mitchell Johnson? Or is the key to it all actually Ryan Harris?

Also this week:

Tony wows the crowds as Woody at the Christmas parade

Adam has a Vicky Pollard moment

Tony almost has a Paula Radcliffe moment

Cutting edge satire about Terminal 5

Adam bumps into loads of his old teachers, but the only thing they want to talk about is Tony

Reach for the skies....

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony reflect on the carnage at the Gabba. Where did the Aussies produce that performance from? Is this the real Mitchell Johnson? Plus, where do England go from here? Can they dust themselves off, and sort out their struggling batting unit?

In addition, they reflect on the sad news about Jonathan Trott, and disagree about whether David Warner was out of order, and whether Clarke and Anderson crossed the line with their sledging.

Also this week:

Adam missed most of the cricket because he was doing domestic chores

Every day is Tony's special day

Ashes Breakfast can be hard to follow

Tony reveals which character he's going to be dressing up as in the Christmas parade

Colds ain't gonna bring us down.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony deliver characteristically razor-sharp analysis of Australia's Ashes chances. There's a surprisingly optimistic feeling around the side - are the Aussies right to be so confident? Are they a better side than they were 6 months ago? And crucially, which Mitchell Johnson will turn up?

Plus, Adam does everyone a favour and picks a composite XI, and Mystic Meg, aka Tony, gives his scoreline prediction for the series.

Also this week:

Tony's got a cold

ASHES ASHES ASHES IT'S THE ASHES AGAIN

On the pod this week, with only somewhere between 6 and 15 days to go before the Ashes, Adam and Tony kick off their preview in earnest with full analysis of England's chances. After winning by such a comfortable margin in the summer, are they big favourites for this series too? Or are there serious concerns over the injury list and the strength of the batting?

In addition, there's a look ahead to Mr Tendulkar's final Test match. Has he saved something special for Mumbai? And has there ever been a series where the actual cricket has mattered as little as this?

Also this week:

Adam's bought all the Rice Krispies he needs for the winter

Tony's got a new book out

Everybody cries buckets of tears over the John Lewis Christmas ad

Tony stitches Adam up in a Chinese restaurant (#brillgate)
