The Wine Rack - Snooker & Snark

Chloe and Jennie look back on the UK Championship 2024 on the day of the final, featuring some 'live' commentary on the match between Judd Trump and Barry Hawkins. Also includes a defence of Jack Lisowski, excitement at some new names reaching the latter stages, and topped off by a slightly odd experiment with the Table of Elements...

Jennie and Chloe record following an epic and exhausting week in Bolton attending the Champion of Champions tournament. They reminisce on some highs and lows of the tournament and generally revel in the excitement of it all! There's a nod to the International Championship, too, before they venture into an alternate universe where our 16 Champions (plus guests) never picked up a cue...

Jennie and Chloe talk briefly about the recent Northern Ireland Open and bemoan yet more bizarre scheduling decisions by WST, then get into a fantastically frightening Free Ball where they cast the horror movie to end all horror movies with their favourite (and less favourite) snooker players!

Chloe and Jennie reflect on the Wuhan Open (what they saw of it) and have a trademark moan about the WST calendar and its seeming lack of clarity and direction. Then, they lament over Lisowski and ramble about Ronnie, before heading off to a desert island to... relax?

Jennie and Chloe discuss the highs and lows of the British & English Opens, then send most of the Top 16 to prison for crimes they could theoretically commit, but definitely haven't. Please don't sue us.

The snooker season has officially begun, so it's time to celebrate with some proper snooker chat. Chloe and Jennie look back at an excellent week in Shanghai before despairing, yet again, at the terrible WST calendar decisions. Things then turn much sweeter as each Top 16 player gets assigned their official pic 'n' mix sweet.

With more WST sponsors being announced, Jennie and Chloe have a wee ramble about the sponsors they'd love to see on the tour and get geared up for the first proper tournament of the season. The Free Ball takes them into heavenly territory to create a pantheon of gods from the Top 16.

Jennie and Chloe do some more rambling through Q School now that the new qualifiers have been confirmed and continue to marvel at the lack of clarity around the snooker calendar before detailing some dream tournament set ups.
