244: The Grade Cricketer (Player Profile)

Time to meet the men behind the madness. The voices behind The Grade Cricketer, Ian Higgins and Sam Perry. What started as a rogue tweet is now a full-blown sporting and cultural phenomenon. Podcasts, books, live shows, viral content … these two have built a beast.  In this Player Profile, ahead of the full backstory, we start with some banter. In the full episode, past lives are revealed, content kingship is dissected, and the absurdities of Grade cricket (and life) are laid bare, plus, some cricket lists that could shatter the ICC rankings system These blokes are more than just banter – they’re two of the most interesting, articulate, and switched-on minds in the game today.  Before we dive into a full-length innings with the lads, have a laugh with Ian and Sam. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
