With Beefy down under, it's an opportunity to catch up with old friends and Ian's relationship with former Australia captain Allan Border goes a long way back.
From rivalries on the field to a great friendship off it, Allan reveals why living with Parkinsons disease isn't holding him back.
We of course have to discuss the latest from the Ashes, but you'll be pleased to hear the conversation quickly turns to happier times!
Bill Beaumont is back in rainy England and shares some strong views on eye gauging and the Rugby World Cup draw too.

With all eyes on the first Ashes test, Bill and Ian are joined by former Australia fast bowling legend Brett Lee.
From his memories of the 2005 epic series (and what did Freddie Flintoff say to him?), to the art of being a fast bowler - AND how he ended up jamming with Mick Jagger, Robbie Williams, Asha Bhosle and starring in Bollywood movies!
Brett also lifts the lid on his rivalry and friendship with Shoaib Akhtar and.... Piers Morgan.
Plus of course we look ahead to the first Test in Perth this weekend.

While Bill is back in England, Ian is in Australia for the Ashes and is joined alongside his old rival and great friend Merv Hughes.
From spotting the early signs of a superstar in Shane Warne to tales from some classic series in the 80's and 90's, Merv lifts the lid on why he thinks England won't win the Ashes this year and Beefy pleads with England to review their preparations.
Plus 'don't mention the fishing trip'. Bill does... And Merv reveals all about the moment Beefy was nearly fed to the sharks!

They may not share the same political views (as we soon find out!) but Alastair Cambell does have a lot in common when it comes to his shared love of sport with Beefy and Bill.
The 'King of Spin' lifts the lid on what it was like to be a part of the 2005 Lions squad, how Steve Thompson nearly discovered the next Prime Minister before anyone else and an infamous Clive Woodward initiated team-talk that had Martin Corry wanting to 'lay me out'.
Plus what happened when Campbell took Tony Blair and Peter Mandelson to watch Burnley at Hartlepool and which Championship football team is Ian starting to follow?

Jonathan Davies represented Wales in both codes - rugby union and rugby league as well as Great Britain AND a Question of Sport alongside Ian Botham and Bill Beaumont (poor bloke).
Reflecting on the current state of rugby both domestically and on the international scene, what Wales need to improve and what makes South Africa so good, Jonathan also reminisces about his time as a player, how he handled Aussie 'sledging' and his days on A Question of Sport that included scooping up elephant poo at Chester zoo!
