On A Pear Cricket Podcast

Pear-shaped: Episode One

Welcome to Pear-shaped, a new mini pod bringing you extra laughs, arguments, and general nonsense!
During The Austerity Pod, the boys disused some daft football phrases and whether they could apply to cricket. Can a bowler take the perfect hat-trick? Can a team park the bus? What is the cricketing equivalent of a cold wet night in Stoke? You know, all the important questions...

The Austerity Pod

It's On A Pear 3.0!
The boys are back in a new location to talk all things cricket. In this episode, we discuss the winter news, ins and outs, and any major rule changes.
We also review an easy win against Derby and incorrectly (it turns out) predict the match against Durham.
If that wasn't enough, there is also a rap and a football focused AOB.

Another pear shaped quiz of the year

The three wise (ish) men dash through the winter's news before the moment you've all been waiting for... the pear shaped quiz of 2022!
Dazza Paxman battles a sore throat to host this year's Champagne Superover, as Pete and Jim aim for the maximum, 36 runs!

Botham’s Box

It's the final episode (almost) of season two and it's broadcast from New Road!
As the pears wrap-up an easy victory against the league leaders, the boys are back to hand out their end of season awards.
We also have some player interviews, discuss more ECB proposals, and bring you the final Worcestershire Watch of 2022. If that wasn't enough, Daz tells us about an interesting weekend and Pete becomes and evil genius...
Our thanks to Joe Tromans from WCCC for helping us with this episode.
See you in December for another pear shaped quiz!

A Quick Googs

It's the August episode of On A Pear and, sadly, we are back to discuss another difficult tournament.
Aside from the Royal London One-Day Cup performances, we discuss recent updates from the ECB, some ins and outs at New Road, and the new Director of Cricket role.
We also rave about the Women's Rapids, discuss possible contenders for the Chaminda Vase (our player of the season award), Pete and Jim get a bit grumpy, and Daz tells us about his recent batting performances...

Where is Peter Pear?

We're back for July's On a Pear! With plenty of news and the usual Worcestershire Watch; we share our thoughts on the end of the T20 Blast campaign, our chances in the County Championship promotion battle, and the departure of Mo and Barnard. 
We also discuss potential new mascots after Nile's disappointing back of the pack finish in this year's mascot race! 

A modest amount of podcasting

This week the boys discuss food in grounds, Pete cheers everyone up by finding  the worst performing T20 counties over the last 20 years, Jim disects the Rapids awful start and Daz? He starts with an apology!
 
We have the news and Worcestershire Watch and new laws in any other business. 

The greedy cow

The boys are back for episode 2!
And we're joined by two people who actually know about cricket! Chloe Hill and 200 gamer Clare Boycott join us to celebrate the Women's rapids title win.
We roll out yet more new jingles, Pete is keen to update the prediction league, and we have FOUR county championship matches to discuss! 
Up the pears!

Not just any podcast

This isn't just any Podcast, this is the On a Pear Cricket Podcast.
The boys are back! But there is good news too... 
We talk about the latest news, Worcestershire's ins and outs, and the England captaincy. 
Worcestershire watch is back and the lads discuss this week's draw at Grace Road. 
We have the season's predictions for you and some surprising picks in AOB where the lads decide which non-Worcestershire player they would like to see don the black pears!!! Enjoy!

Pear shaped quiz of the year

It's time for the Big Fat On A Pear Quiz of 2021! Jim takes on Pete in a battle of the titans, for quizzing glory, which is all cricket and more than a hint of pear.
There are 6 rounds in this champagne superover and up to 72 runs on offer...
Good luck!
