#445: Alan Soutar, Patrick Ocheng, Juma Said, German Darts Grand Prix Review

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode of your go-to darts podcast after the German Darts Grand Prix! The boys start off the show by giving their thoughts on last week's drama in the Premier League between Luke Littler and Gian van Veen during their quarter-final match in Manchester. Recent Players Championship finalist Alan Soutar (7:56) joins the show just a few weeks before running the London Marathon. 'Soots' reflects on the last two years since his maiden PDC title win out in Germany, getting back in the PDC World Championship field, winning a sudden-death leg thriller against Teemu Harju and giving Gian van Veen a scare, where the idea came from to sign up for this year's London Marathon, fitting in the training alongside playing on the ProTour, and his goals for the next two years before retiring from work at the end of 2027. The boys take a look back at the latest European Tour event in Munich, which saw Nathan Aspinall defeat Danny Noppert 8-5 in the final to win his fourth European Tour title. Alex and Burton discuss the champion Aspinall's comments during the tournament about his current enjoyment levels playing darts as well as the runner-up Noppert losing out in a fourth European Tour final. Uganda's first ever PDC World Cup of Darts team Patrick Ocheng and Juma Said (1:00:45) call in from Uganda to look ahead to their big-stage debuts in Germany this summer. The history-making pair reflect on winning the newly-launched African qualifier to earn a spot in the PDC World Cup, becoming just the second nation from Africa to play in the pairs tournament, their own journeys in darts and how they both discovered the game, coaching youth players in Uganda, and their run to winning the World Cup qualifier last month. Alex and Burton wrap up the show by picking out some of the players who have impressed them away from the PDC tour so far in 2026.
