Couch Talk
by Devanshu Mehta
Subash Jayaraman recently began a new podcast, and he’s on a roll. The podcast is called Couch Talk, and he’s already but out six top-notch episodes. My favorite episode so far is with Peter Della Penna, the American cricket writer, on a student in Oklahoma became a die-hard cricket fan and journalist. But the rest of the episodes have been really good as well.
One of the strange pleasures of the show is hearing the voices of people I’ve read in blogs and on Twitter:
- Sana Kazmi and Ant Sims did a show about women in cricket journalism
- A Cricketing View’s Kartikeya Date, whom I link to quite regularly, did a show about the Decision Review System in cricket
- Aatif Nawaz and Henna Khan on Pakistani cricket support in England
- And finally Dileep Premchandran and Gary Naylor on the upcoming India in England series
All episodes are here, and worth your time. (And I hear the next episode is with Jarrod Kimber of cricketwithballs and Spin magazine. Can’t wait.)
