#371: Brian Raman, Xanti Van den Bergh, World Series of Darts Finals and ProTour Reviews 0

Sep 20, 2024

Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode after the World Series of Darts Finals.

The boys start the show by discussing who they think is the current favourite to win the next PDC World Darts Championship, following Luke Littler's latest triumph in Amsterdam at the weekend, and also reflect on Michael Smith's run to the final.

Alex and Burton also give their thoughts on this week's Players Championship double header and pick out the players who caught their eye. The boys finish the show with an early look at the current list of international qualifiers for Ally Pally, before looking at who could qualify via the CDC rankings after this weekend's season finale.

Brian Raman (16:02) calls in after winning the WDF-ranked Italian Open at the weekend. The Belgian reflects on his two years with a PDC tour card, having shoulder surgery at the end of 2023 and his comeback so far this year, getting back in the winners' enclosure in Italy last week, and his late push to qualify for Lakeside.

Xanti Van den Bergh (50:18) also stops by after his run to the Italian Open final. The Belgian talks about growing up in a darting family, along with his older brother Dimitri, winning his first WDF ranking title at the Swedish Open last month, his friendship with Brian Raman, and his own goal of trying to qualify for the WDF World Championships.

#370: Peter Wright, Rhys Griffin, Euro Tour and Women's Series Reviews, World Series Of Darts Finals Preview 0

Sep 12, 2024

Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode ahead of the World Series of Darts Finals.

The boys start the show by looking back at last weekend's action, starting with the Flanders Darts Trophy in Antwerp and discuss if a first major title is next for Dave Chisnall after he won his eighth European Tour on Sunday, as well as what Ricardo Pietreczko's surprise run to the final could do for his season.

Alex and Burton also give their thoughts on the latest weekend of Women's Series events, which saw Gemma Hayter and Robyn Byrne win titles on the Sunday after Beau Greaves did the double on the Saturday. The boys finish the show with a look ahead to the World Series of Darts Finals this weekend and are joined by Jack from Kwiff to put together their Weekly Dartscast Parlay for the first round.

Peter Wright (18:13) calls in ahead of playing in the World Series of Darts Finals this weekend. The two-time world champion looks back on his recent return to title-winning ways on the European Tour and reflects on an up and down last 18 months on the oche, which has seen him win the European Championship but also drop out of the world's top 10.

Rhys Griffin (50:21) also stops by before making his TV debut in the World Series of Darts Finals. Rhys talks through his time in the game so far from how he got into darts as a kid and his early successes in the youth system and representing Wales, to then taking a break from playing and returning to win his first PDC tour card at the start of this year and winning through the tour card holder qualifiers to earn a trip to Amsterdam this weekend.

#369: Johan Engstrom, Keelan Kay, German Darts Championship Review, A 128-Player Ally Pally? 0

Sep 6, 2024

Co-hosts Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode after the German Darts Championship.

The boys start the show by discussing Peter Wright's run to the German Darts Championship in Hildesheim at the weekend and whether this means he is 'back', before delving into the race for the European Championship with only four events left now before the cut off.

Alex and Burton also give their thoughts on the recent announcements from the PDC, including a revamped Masters for next year and the calendar for 2025, discuss the prospect of a 128-player PDC World Championship in the future, and also look ahead to the upcoming weekend of Women's Series action.

Johan Engstrom (17:17) calls in ahead of his debut in the World Series of Darts Finals next week. The 'Sweet Ferret' looks back on his 30+ years in the game, including how he got into darts growing up in Sweden, representing his country on the WDF circuit, beating Peter Wright at the Nordic Darts Masters this year, and narrowly missing out on an Ally Pally debut through the Nordic & Baltic Tour last month.

Keelan Kay (46:38) also stops by for a chat after signing for the darts manufacturer Mission. The 'Lord of the Board' reflects on his darts career so far, from playing Eric Bristow and Michael van Gerwen in exhibitions as a kid to gold medal success in the WDF World Youth Cup, coming within one game of a PDC tour card via the UK Development Tour in 2021, and his hopes for the rest of 2024 and beyond after joining Team Mission.
