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

All this and more on the latest edition of the World Cricket Show - the Jacques Kallis of podcasts, whatever that...

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?

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

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

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

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.

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)

We did it!

On a very special 200th Episode Special, Adam and Tony reflect in arguably self-indulgent fashion on where they came from, where they are, and where they're going. There are answers to literally every question you've ever wanted to ask, plus plenty you didn't. Including - how much of Episode 1 does Tony remember? What does Adam do for a living? And does Tony use the show to impress girls?

In addition, both hosts select their post-Atherton World XIs and discuss the reasons they failed to make it as professional cricketers, and there's even time for some actual cricket discussion, with a look at England's warm-up matches in Australia.

Also this week:

Adam finds himself fstarstruck in London

Tony doesn't like pigeons

The conversation gets pretty deep at times

The whole thing's recorded LIVE

Run for your lives! The World Cricket Show's coming to get you!

On this terrifying Halloween Special, Adam and Tony reflect on a seesaw Test series in the UAE. Has there ever been a more unpredictable team than Pakistan? Did South Africa start off undercooked? Is Imran Tahir back for good? And will Pakistan ever find any good new batsmen?

In addition, there's analysis of the ball tampering row. Heinous crime, or just a bit of Faffing around?

Also this week:

Tony is bad at Halloween

Adam can't get his head around Morrissey

Mr Tendulkar will be hard to replace

Tony manages to offend virtually everybody

The 200th episode careers into view, and there are still no plans for it

There's always thyme for a World Cricket Show.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony reflect on the career of Sachin Tendulkar - you may not have heard about this, but he's decided to retire. Which of his endless records will be his major legacy? Where does he rank among the all-time greats? And just how big of a hole will he leave behind in the game of cricket?

Also this week:

Adam absolutely kills it on Facebook with some jokes about thyme

Ricky Ponting was wasting his time playing cricket

Tony's constant bungling causes serious problems for the show finale

Get out of the way, the World Cricket Show's coming through.

On the pod this week, Adam and Tony look ahead to the looming Test series between Pakistan and South Africa in the UAE. After a demoralising whitewash in South Africa, can Pakistan get some revenge in more familiar conditions? Will Saeed Ajmal do to the Proteas what he did to England? Or will Steyn and co simply be too strong?

In addition, Afghanistan get to the World Cup and Steve Harmison retires, and Adam and Tony have a good old natter about it all.

Also this week:

Adam loses the plot in the accent department, in a big way

The triumphant return of the body boarding anecdotes

Afghanistan's win gives Russell Howard plenty to get his teeth into
