28. Everything's Binary, with Simon Katich and Gideon Haigh
On this show: Another victory for alpha cricket. It's 3-0, Steve Smith gets the Bradman treatment, Marsh scores a ton in front of Dad, and England lose face. We discuss this and more with writer virtuoso Gideon Haigh, before talking with special guest Simon Katich - who covers Brendon Julian, winning in India, wearing State kit at grade level, impressions of Shane Watson and more.

27. Always Look Good, with Mike Atherton
We head West, where aesthetics may have killed Handscomb, we pay tribute to speed as is custom, we talk Duckett, Magic Bullet Theory and ponder whether the home team circuit too little, there’s Beta dismissals and the Windies, Adam Collins joins with facts and knowledge, #AskTGC continues and – in the greatest and least deserved coup in podcast history – we steal 19 minutes of Michael Atherton’s time. It was well worth it. EXTRA HOUR of AskTGC EVERY WEEK: https://patreon.com/gradecricketer See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

26. Rig-o-Saurus, with Mark Butcher
It's 2-0: are we happy now? We talk Smith, Marsh, Anderson, sledging, fear, entitlement and hindsight post-Adelaide, before Pez and Dave catch up with former England Test stalwart Mark Butcher. #AskTGC closes things up, where we grapple with slight variations on the standard themes of alphas, champs, salads, and Toadie from Neighbours.

19. Going 'Round Again, with Ed Cowan
Yes, in the spirit of all self-respecting cricketers, we're 'going round again'. With Higgos in Sydney, Pez in London and Dave on short-term hiatus, we crash through the winter that's been, the summer that's coming, and other semi-relevant material. Adam Collins joins us to give some sorely needed detail and credibility to the Stokes thing and England generally, and Cowan is as hard-hitting as ever. Some shameless book promotion too, as well as your questions. Also please buy our book.
