Morris Call

Ollie and Cheesy discuss the landmark decision by the Joint Morris Organisation to withdraw support for teams using "full black or skin tone make up". This week's special guest is Eddie Worrall of Saddleworth Morris Men, former Squire of the Morris Ring, current Chair of the Morris Ring Advisory Council and all round good egg. Eddie, Ollie and Cheesy discuss the decision by the JMO from a Morris Ring perspective, as well as musings on the Saddleworth Rushcart and the answer to the question "aren't a hookleg and a galley the same thing?!" --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/morris-call/message

In our very first episode Ollie and Cheesy introduce the Morris Call Podcast, and discuss how they got into morris. Cheesy inadvertently reveals himself as a future candidate for Squire of the Ring, and Ollie is getting old and growing a moustache! The special guest this episode is Jen Cox, Chair of the Open Morris, and self-confessed morris tart! Jen's Go Fund Page can be found at: https://gf.me/u/x856n6 We have been experimenting with different technology to record the podcast, and this has resulted in a couple of quality issues with the audio in this first episode. We are striving to get it right for the future, and we think we've cracked it! We hope you enjoy listening to it as much as we've enjoyed making it. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/morris-call/message
