60 | Inside the World Bowls World Cup – DJ Returns from Kuala Lumpur (KL as he likes to say)
🎙️ EPISODE 60 – Malaysia Strikes Gold | World Cup Results, Highlights & Behind the Scenes
DJ’s back from Kuala Lumpur — and Episode 60 of What a Load of Bowls is a full recap of the inaugural World Bowls World Cup!
Simon grills DJ on his trip: the electric crowds, the Malaysian hospitality, and even his unfortunate airport slip-and-fall story. From billboard-level promotion to army-guarded venues, DJ shares every detail of how Malaysia delivered the re-vamped World Cup.
Together they break down all the results — gold medals for Australia, Wales, Hong Kong China, India, England, and the home nation Malaysia, plus James “Jimmy Two Golds” Reynolds taking out MVP honours.
Plus:
-
DJ’s first-hand commentary experience with Barry and Alex
-
The launch of the Hall of Fame Dinner in KL
-
DJ’s new role on the Board of Bowls NSW
Listen now for insights, laughs, and a celebration of the sport we love on the world stage.
