A lovely chat with Adit. I think we did the cricket world proud 🏏

Bell and Sandilands did play together a lot, but IIRC Bell is 6 cm taller than Dudley while Cox and Sandi are the same height

43cm - MASON COX & ISAIAH DUDLEY
42cm - Matthew Burton & Peter Miller
41cm - Matthew Burton & Garth Taylor

Moises Henriques enjoying some Spotify with the text "CRICKET SICKOS ON SPOTIFY"

SirDoris' adaptation of the classic Moises Henriques video: "What, um, what's going on here?" "I just thought we'd have a little bit of a chat" "Beautiful" "What are you doing there? "I was just listening to some Cricket Sickos on Spotify mate" "Yeah?" "Just listening to some people discuss cricket, and this episode has Adit and SirDoris discuss potential cricketing sitcom ideas" "...Do you often listen to podcasts naked?" "...yes"

Some mostly intentional hilarity from @sirdoris.bsky.social ft. our good friend Moises and his beloved Spotify

Appreciate @sirdoris.bsky.social for posting while audio upload had issues, and thank you for coming on and having this intensely silly chat! I can't believe this was the first I'd heard of the Spiceman but I was happy to have been educated.

This is the song currently stuck in my head - its lyrics are just its title just on repeat, but it got stuck because it sounds more like "been thinking about hummus"

(or, due to recent events, "been thinking about Hormuz")

Nah, this is loser energy

What if Italy not qualifying for the World Cup for the third time in a row was karma for what Materazzi did to Zidane

There is a lot of fun to be had when the team batting out a draw are down to the last batters in the lineup, and most of the time they are the worst batters on the team. The fielding team surrounds the batters which increases drama, and it's amazing fun if they pull it off!

Imagine all those people who turned out to watch Bradman's last innings only for him to get out for 0 off 4
