"It's just not cricket" is a British English idiom meaning something is unfair, dishonest, or goes against the rules of decency or moralitySo what makes cricket the benchmark of decency? To find out our guest this week is Daniel Norcross one of the most recognisable voices on Test Match Special - the BBC's flagship cricket programme. Perhaps not surprisingly this is the longest interview we've done - it turns out a man who is trained to speak endlessly often during a break for rain can, well, speak endlessly. Don't worry though - our human editing team have trimmed it down to the usual Trash Talk length - so if you want to hear Dan's comparison of the cricket off-season to World War 2... you'll have to listen to Test Match Special. Dan really is a legend - and if you don't like cricket this episode is worth listening to for his sheer passion alone. Enjoy. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Alastair Campbell
At last - the intergalactic meeting they've all been asking for! One of Earth's top podcasters Alastair Campbell in conversation with Sigma IX's pre-eminent (and only) podcaster Count Binface.After months of negotiations the chat tête-à-bin finally took place in Alaska and by the end of their meeting world peace had been restored, democracy was saved and Burnley had won the Champions' League. No... none of that happened - except the conversation - that DID happen. Alastair was in France and Count Binface was hovering above Croydon (planning something big) and they spoke about the enormous success of The Rest is Politics, the need to disagree agreeably and Kier Starmer's first year in office. But most importantly of all Alastair applied his political playbook to the Count Binface campaign... Frost & Nixon, Parkinson & Hull, and now Campbell & Binface.Get a load of this! Hosted on Acast.
