The Ridiculous Ashes podcast - the podcast I do with Alex Bowden in which we examine historical Ashes series to determine which nation was more ridiculous - returns with the 2019 Ashes.
First up, it’s Fortress Edgbaston, where we discuss nefarious handshake schemes, Moeen Ali’s willingness to leave and the improbable rejection of a Steve Waugh game plan.
You can subscribe to the podcast on your provider of choice to ensure that you get access to each episode the instant it drops (I can not be relied upon to remind you here about new episodes in a timely fashion).
(And, of course, as always, while you subscribe, please don’t forget to post your honest five star reviews of the podcast.)
Also, there’s a Ridiculous Ashes book! Read that in between episodes if you like. More details on that in the post linked below.
The 50 Most Ridiculous Ashes Moments
An Ashes series is imminent, and we all know what that means, right? Things are about to get ridiculous.
After you’ve finished listening to the first episode of this new season, read the book, told all your friends and posted your honest five star reviews of both book and podcast, you may be wondering, what’s next?
The answer, of course, is to go through the previous five seasons. There’s a full list in this post linked below.

With the men’s 2023 ODI World Cup concluded, a dazed cricket-loving public deprived of their regular World Cup fix may be looking for something else to fill the void that now envelops them.
That should keep you busy.
