214. World Cup Fever, with Reece Topley

The World Cup is finally here and TGC kicks it off with possibly the loosest show since the last World Cup. Who are the favourites? Is Che La Luna the song of the summer? Will Warner ever captain again? Can Western Australia go all the way after their win over India? What's New Zealand up to? Bharat Sundaresan makes his TGC debut from a seedy hotel in Hobart to give us his insights into his net-relationship with Steve Smith and Reece Topley lets us know of his love affair with Australia, mullets, taking 6/24 at Lord's and the low-down on his current Uber rating. #AskTGC takes us into the urinals at Manuka Oval in the nation's capital and also when sledging a kid's dead dad goes wrong.
