Gave it a listen and rated it on Apple. Good stuff!

In reply to Ged Ladd. Glad to be of some sort of service. As a man with a baby and a toddler, we see sleep-enablement as a higher calling.

I have subscribed through Apple and tried to leave an honest 5 star review although I cannot see the review yet and might have fallen foul of some unwritten rule of on-line reviews which tends to eliminate any review that actually says something.

Not for the public domain, but I fell asleep the first time around and listened again when i woke up. Might have something to do with the sleep deprivation that US politics has inflicted upon me of late. But it might be that Ridiculous Ashes could become my personal equivalent of The Goldberg Variations.

In reply to Steve. Ah jeez, it's hard enough trying to keep track of the conventional score and the ridiculous one. We haven't the capacity for this level of mental gymnastics.

Can you make two scores, One which is the one that you are already covering, which Australia have taken the lead in and one made up of the ‘hindsight corner’ ridiculous moments. It would be interesting to see if that spells out a different story.

In reply to King Cricket. Having listened, I can confirm that the pitch does not change, just the speed. Listening at half speed makes you sound like you've just rolled out of a pub after about 8 'substantial meals'.

In reply to A P Webster. We're not averse to going up an octave.

I have subscribed, but in the interests of full disclosure, the current ‘only allowed outside once a day and maybe an extra time if you have to go to the supermarket or if your leg is falling off’ rules in England are cutting into my walking (and hence podcast-listening) time to the extent that I will probably be listening at 1.4x speed.
