That’s the gist

A ’timeless’ pod covering your emails, questions, talking points and correspondence of certainty and uncertainty - like a Martin Lewis-esque Cricket Saving Expert Special. Includes bat chat, a complaint, darts, Dr Who, Jimmy’s fear of cows and camping/caravanning cricketers.

The Tailenders go on a ’school trip’ to the McLaren Technology Centre (MTC) to meet Australian Formula One driver and cricket fan Oscar Piastri.There’s an impromptu game of cricket on a somewhat uneven pitch, Oscar talks about his love of the game and gives the guys a tour of some of the classic McLaren cars on display.Plus Felix, who has never learnt to drive, gets some tips from Oscar on how to handle a Formula One Car before having a go in a F1 simulator.

An Emergency Podcast of sorts. The Tailenders assembled last night to react to the USA’s shock win over Pakistan in the Men's T20 World Cup, this just a few hours after recording the podcast in the afternoon and saying how ‘unexciting' the tournament was. Plus we’re joined by Olympic Rowers and Tailenders Tom George and Ollie Wynne-Griffith as they prepare for Paris 2024.

The Windy Gantry at The Oval is the location for latest Tailenders as Greg, Jimmy and Felix preview the Men's T20 World Cup. Jimmy outlines his ‘England Starting XI’, Mattchin’s back with his ‘rolled over quiz’, complete with new theme tune and there’s a surprise for Sharky.

More on Jimmy’s retirement, including Mattchin’s list of ’things’ Jimmy can now do. Plus listener emails, a ticket dilemma, theatre reviews and almost a quiz.

Jimmy assembled the team as he’s got something to tell the Tailenders listeners...

Issy Wong is back on the pod with news of her England team bonding weekend in the the lakes, the WIPL and a preview of the up coming white ball series with Pakistan which starts at Edgbaston on Saturday. Plus is there too much men's cricket in the summer? Can VAR learn from DRS? Also Mattchin has yet another new quiz - ‘Rear Review Mirror’ - and plans are afoot to ’supersize’ a village match.

While in India Jimmy turned down the chance to meet the Dalai Lama, but who would he get out of bed for? Find out in Mattchin’s new, listener generated quiz ‘Meet or No Meet’. Plus we discover another side to Felix, big hitting in the IPL, Jofra’s back for England and the joys of a day watching country cricket.

Writer, comedian, broadcaster, documentary maker, presenter and all round genius Sir Michael Palin joins Greg, Jimmy and Felix for a very special episode of Tailenders. In a wide-ranging interview he discussed his career with Monty Python, his legendary travelogues including his new series on Nigeria, his films and his love of cricket. Included are tales about George Harrison, Keith Miller, watching cricket around the world, his first job at the BBC and the perils of eating rotten camel meat. Plus, what happened when Jimmy was invited to meet the Dalai Lama.

On day one of the County Championship we were invited into the boardroom at Lord's to sit down with ECB Chair, Richard Thompson, the boss of English Cricket. Topics included cricket in state schools, TV deals, The Hundred, racism and cricket, the development of the women's wame and THAT presentation to Jimmy in India.
