The Cricket Podcast with George and Isaac

The Cricket Podcast with George and Isaac

The Cricket Podcast is produced by the media team of Advocacy For All.

George and Isaac both work at Advocacy For All...Isaac as an advocate supporter and George as a peer supporter.

Every now and then, their conversations turn to cricket. So instead of boring everyone around them, they thought they should try a podcast. Especially as George the peer supporter is the true cricket expert with Isaac as his trusty novice. By Episode 2 they will have come up with a more imaginative name than "The Cricket Podcast". We sincerely hope you enjoy the first episode.
