    The Trip
    May 31 2025
    Dan and Finny are on a road trip so this episode was recorded as they navigated their way from Birmingham to Derby. The pair look back at both England Women and Men's recent fixtures with Nat Sciver-Brunt and Harry Brook in charge for their respective white ball series against West Indies with Ben Stokes in charge for the only Test against Zimbabwe. And of course, this wouldn't be Zero Ducks given if we just stuck to cricket... Finny describes having a supernatural experience and his dislike of single beds whilst Dan tells us about his "unique" way in beating a queue at an airport. We also find out he is a big fan of gravy...with consequences for those around him.
