#429: Lucy Fenner, PDC World Darts Championship Rounds 1 And 2 Review

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode of your go-to darts podcast after the first two rounds of the 2025/26 PDC World Darts Championship!

The boys start of the show with a look back at the action so far at Alexandra Palace, discussing what has been the biggest shock result of the tournament so far, before giving their thoughts on Cameron Menzies' post-match outburst and Dom Taylor being removed from the event after failing a drugs test.

Lucy Fenner (20:59), the commercial director of Alexandra Palace, joins the show to discuss the recent announcement that the PDC have agreed a new five-year deal with Alexandra Palace to host their World Championship. Lucy talks about her role at the venue, how she helped bring darts back to Ally Pally in 2007, and the logistics behind moving into the Great Hall and increasing the capacity next year.

Alex and Burton finish off the show by deciding whether they will stick with their pre-tournament picks and also choose the last 32 ties they are most looking forward to.
