Listen on

Episode notes

Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a regular podcast and start by discussing the start of the German Super League this past weekend and whether their social-distancing setup could be incorporated onto the main PDC tour. The team also give their thoughts on what will happen to the World Matchplay in July, after the PDC announced a decision on the scheduled dates would be made in early June. Two-time major champion, and the face of the PDC Home Tour, Dan Dawson (08:05) calls in to look back on the first phase of the Home Tour and presenting and commentating on all 32 nights. We also discuss our new sponsor for the podcast (30:44), Low6, and how you can take on Alex and Burton in the Weekly Dartscast Lucky Dip. Scott Hunt (35:25), the owner of North East Darts Promotions, then calls in to talk through the booming darts scene in the North East, running events during the lockdown and following the fortunes of his brother Adam Hunt on the PDC tour. Alex and Burton then turn their attention back to the PDC Home Tour (49:07) and pick out their highlights so far and who they fancy to on and come out on top in the play-offs. Finally, we wrap up the show with some listener questions (52:29).
