Season 19, Episode 1: It is officially the start of the southern season, because we say so, and what more fitting way to start than with a huge Sheffield Shield round. Stories aplenty, not just about who is trying to make a certain squad, but perhaps a recasting of umpiring as we know it. Plenty more this week: Geelong might get its own Big Bash team, USA cricket goes broke, Jadeja dominates West Indies, so does Nepal, Kohli is heading back to Australia, Ashwin is coming earlier than planned, and that's just some of it.

Is it worth the lollipop? Fresh off Grand Final week, Swanny, Samantha and Ralph check in before heading west for charity gigs, Kalgoorlie cups, and the usual chaos. There's talk of kids learning the pain of losing early, the questionable economics of taking six-year-olds to the ‘G, and the genius parenting hack of “if they don't know it exists, you don't have to pay for it.” Add in a dose of Royal Melbourne Show nostalgia, post-mortems on Geelong's flop, Brisbane's class, and a few licks of Snoop Dogg's halftime show—and you've got the perfect midweek debrief.Follow & support us where you can, hit subscribe and share the pod with a mate.Podcast : @swannyandfriendsDane: @danes84Samantha @samantharichesRalphy: Race Track RalphySupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/hump-day-with-swanny-and-friends.
