Summary
No sport does storytelling like cricket – a game as full of heroes, villains, politics and drama as any Shakespearean play.
And few have explored those stories as far and wide as the presenters of the award-winning and beloved podcast The Final Word, Geoff Lemon and Adam Collins. Over hundreds of episodes of Story Time, the history spin-off to the podcast, they have followed their listeners’ clues to track down the wildest characters, matches and situations the game has ever seen.
