Superb.
Flowed like one of his books.

Really enjoyed listening to this while working in the office today, what a wonderful way with words he has and no sniff of a scaly banger, rig mechanics or bait flavour.

Really don't get carp podcasts, come on 3 hours running around in circles about next to nothing, but i enjoyed my first one with steve briggs and i'm sure i will enjoy this one too:P

Only a little way in but I've never wanted a piece of sourdough toast so much. He could romanticise anything and draw in an audience.

Will keep this one downloaded for my next long drive, he's just wired different to most which is what makes him interesting for me I will look forward to this one, as yet whilst I was happy with the return of the Korda podcast I've yet to enjoy listening to one I though Rich was a good choice and perhaps it will change pace a little when he gets someone other than a Korda guest in the chair, atm it feels a little too scripted.

Reckon Hassan did a decent job of this, he just asks questions then let's Chris go on one. Then you just drift into his world with him.

Weirdly i actually found Rich awkward to listen to in the Cyp "for the record" interviews. But since he's done the podcasts i find them much easier to listen to. always found simon a bit jarring and he couldn't go for long without mentioning he fished Savay haha!

Couldn't agree more. Only thing that made me cringe a bit was how he kept calling him "mate".

I pick and choose which podcast to listen to..Some like Shellys are just a waste of air IMO (apologies to JS fans) ...However, Yates' was superb. As others have said Hassan just let him talk and let his use of grammar flow. It was a refreshing change to listen someone speaking properly...none of this 'yoof speak'. He lives and breathes the country...its sights..sounds....smells...just as Jack Hargreaves did . Still amazes me how he gelled with Hutchy....Two anglers but from opposite ends of the spectrum meeting and complementing one another in the middle. Think I need to dig out my copy of Casting at the Sun.......

I'm the same if I don't know the person on the podcast then I don't listen to it but Yates's was great,another one I listened to was I think on the chronicles and it was the guy who held the canal carp record twice once in 60's and then a few years ago with a 47lb fully scaled,he was amazing and he caught that fish at different weights throughout its life and some in different areas of the Kenner and Avon canal it was a fascinating listen.
Edit it wasn't chronicals it was the carp fishing podcast here it is if anyone wants to listen to it

Hassan has come on leaps and bounds the last few interviews he's done. Less about rigs and bait, more about the person themselves.

Yes I agree fella. I used to find him annoying but he is growing on me, especially after this one. I have found that more people are warming to him.
Can't see how he can top this one though.
