Last time we said we were back but this time we are so back baby!

Look at me rhyming in the titles. This second episode of the as-yet untitled rugba leeg version of the podcast goes over the excitement and scandal of round zero and what's to come in round one.

Welcome to a new, as yet untitled, issue of the TBC podcast talking about rugba leeg, cricket, and where peoples wives may or may not be located.

We return with days before the NBA regular season is due to start and there's a whole lot basketball to talk about before that begins.

We return, but with some audio issues for which we apologise.

Hey I'm on lunch why is Jaylen Brown getting so much money?

Hey it's Joe uploading the day after recording. I'm not precisley aware of all the things we talked about in this episode but I believe it was mostly basketball.

It's still Heat in 5, but what if it was also Nuggets in 6?
