Episode 16 - The Ashes: Sherrin in the Park - a podcast by Bad Producer Productions | The Greatest Season That Was Presents

What if the greatest season of all time was played but one of the greatest footy writers the game has ever known wasn’t there to see it? This was Greg Baum’s story in 1993 he was deployed to cover Australia’s Ashes campaign in England that winter for The Age.


So, instead of writing about Ablett and Winmar and Godra and all the rest, he was documenting the rise of Shane Warne as Allan Border’s side thrashed the Poms and retained the urn.


But that didn’t mean the footy was lost upon those on tour, both cricketers and journalists alike – far from it. We talk to Greg Baum about how the worlds of footy and cricket collided on the other side of the world during The Greatest Season that Was: 1993


The Greatest Season That Was: 93 documents our contention that in 1993, footy was never better. Hosted by Adam Collins, Dan Brettig and Shannon Gill, this series is an in-depth exploration of one amazing season. 


The Greatest Season That Was: 93 is produced by Jay Mueller and edited by Thom Lion. Check out Bad Producer Productions for more podcasts.
