Join Podcast host & editor Max Portman as he interviews Peter Mason, Journalist with the Guardian Newspaper & author of several books on music, food, carnival culture and sport, as they discuss Peter's latest book on the West Indian Cricketing Legend, Sir Clyde Walcott.


In an engaging 50-minute conversation, Max and Peter cover a lot of ground, discussing Clyde's legacy not only as one of the greatest batsmen of all time; but also as the manager of the hugely successful West Indies team of the 1970s, 80s, and 1990s and his trailblazing achievements as an administrator, becoming the first non-white, non-British president of the International Cricket Council (ICC) in 1993.


This is a must-listen for cricket lovers, but also those with a love of the Caribbean as Clyde Walcott was not only a legend of the Cricket field, where he modernised the game and made it truly international, but a legend of the Caribbean, where a boy from Barbados changed not only the West Indies forever as one of it's recognisable black icons of the modern age.
