Let us take you back in time.
Let us take you back to a point in history where UEFA Euro 2020 was still in the middle of Group Stage play, and the Milwaukee Bucks had just finished off the Brooklyn Nets in the NBA Eastern Conference semi-finals. A time where winter had only just begun in Australia, and all the state borders were wide open. Back when one of the co-hosts of this podcast - Chris 'Super Mario' Milne - was amazingly still in his 30s. That time, was known simply as "the middle of June, 2021", and it was a very different time indeed.
For those that can't remember that far back, fear not - as Super Mario and his co-host Mal 'Mr Fister' Donnellon were able to permanently record the moment with an already-dated-but-forever-young time capsule in audio form, also known as a podcast episode.
And who was their guest for this episode? Why it was our first-ever African nation guest - the recently-appointed Namibian Fistball Association President, Kristof Lerch!
In this episode the guys dive into all things Namibian fistball - talking their long history in the sport, the development of youth players, women's players and whether they'll be appearing at the next World Games.
They then talk about one of the more tournament-defining games from the 2019 Men's World Fistball Championships - the double-elimination game between Namibia and the USA. We already know the classicly succinct nickname given to Keith Schweda by Mal, but what nicknames will he bestow upon Helmo Minz, Tristan Minz and Rico Kühle-Kreitz? Only one way to find out.
Oh, and take note of a few sports predictions in the much-maligned "news" segment.... oh so close!
There were a few audio issues on this recording unfortunately, but boldly push through them and you will be handsomely rewarded.
As always, a huge thank you to Rafael Dobler for the theme music to this podcast series.
Fist on!
Recorded on...*checks notes*... Sunday, 20th of June, 2021??? C'mon guys, this is getting ridiculous...
