About This Podcast
Cricket legend Sir Ian Botham and rugby icon Sir Bill Beaumont team up for 'Old Boys New Balls!' — the podcast where two old mates swap tales from the dressing room, chew over the big issues in sport and throw in a few unexpected curveballs along the way.
From glory days on tour to how sport has changed, from larger-than-life teammates to life after the final whistle, no subject is off limits. Sometimes serious, often irreverent, always honest — it’s sport as you’ve never heard it before.
Join Beefy and Bill — plus an all-star line-up of amazing guests — for stories, banter, and a fresh take on the games they love.
