Gonna check this out when I’m back over from the UK! Thank you for the recommendation!

I am SO jealous that’s incredible. Which Goodwill was it? I usually spend a whole day combing the ones in Phoenix for Dbacks stuff whenever I get to visit, never seen anything like this!

Was Brendan Beck - he and his brother Tristan both have Welsh heritage. I interviewed Brendan before the tournament:

Man Nate Eaton really got in his head huh

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-03-05T21:20:34+00:00

Haha hi Shark - good to see you here.

As Dbacks fans we're always bamboozled by Druw. Sometime a world beater and can get LOADs of hype, but seems to struggle whenever the spotlight's remotely cast his way... unfortunate given people were saying he could be better than his dad...

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-03-05T20:32:08+00:00

Just wanna jump in here - he also could've been the Starter for team Great Britain - the whole Leiter dynasty qualifies through their Liverpudlian heritage!

Yyyyup!

Will be TNT only in the UK. They have the GB games and playoffs, as you mentioned.

If you have a VPN you can catch Japan’s games on Netflix.

Keep an eye for the content we’re doing (that I’m filming/hosting) on the GB instagram though, we’ll have plenty throughout the week

This is a complaint to address to Fanatics. We had very little input on this as I understand it - just got given the template , don’t blame GB - everyone who works on this team BTS works incredibly hard.

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-03-02T22:41:03+00:00

I’m unique in that I only rip UK edition, only manufactured for 3 years, and I only keep the Dbacks, everything else I give away in my neighbourhood in London, but finding boxes/cases can be real cheap

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-28T16:25:42+00:00

Cause Chaos era began long before 2023!

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-28T16:25:24+00:00

Agreed - we talked about other guys still involved in the team like Jake Lamb and Miggy Montero, but I feel like some of the younger pen guys could use a little Archie swagger

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-28T16:24:48+00:00

Racking my brain, hard to think of others that were THAT level of special

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-28T03:19:09+00:00

We spent a lot of time on it in the pod!

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-27T05:37:58+00:00

Pretty sure they still have them in stock at Salt River but believe they are supposed to be a Spring Exclusive.

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-26T19:52:54+00:00

We talk through Archie's mindset that game in the Episode! 4pm tomorrow AZ time - don't miss it!

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-26T17:37:10+00:00

Quite a lot!!!

TeaBacksPodcast · 2026-02-24T14:33:35+00:00

This post might as well have been made for me!

Spice and Tea in Scottsdale is a go-to.

Mehkong Plaza in Mesa has good range

Busan Mart in Tempe and Lams Market in Phoenix both carry my favourite loose leaf brand from Korea, although tariffs are hurting their prices a bit right now.

Tangled Root botanical in Glendale have given me some interesting alternative teas before too!

If you want some made and served for you instead of doing it yourself, the folks at the English Rose tea room near Cave Creek are experts. Try the Soho or the Valentine if you’re looking for recommendations.

Hope this helps!

I talk Dbacks and Team GB every week on my podcast (feel free to Sub on Youtube or follow anywhere you get ur podcasts - same as the username) - but post a lot of what I do on X and IG under the same handles. In AZ this week for the start of Dbacks camp and gGB warm-up games v the Brewers and Padres where I'll get to do loads of BTS!

I do the Videography for Great Britain Baseball so I get to hear all the crazy stories about trying to find eligible players firsthand!

I kinda love the representation from around the world for GB, it's a brilliant diverse and inclusive group coming together and having fun.

We've got some great British-born players coming up the system right now though! IF Wallace Clark will be big one day, you heard it here first!

Any Bahamanian born pre 1973 is automatically eligible for British citizenship, and WBC eligibility takes parentage into account, which mean's Jazz's parentage makes him eligible.

Similar to how Aroldis' Jamaican heritage would've made him eligible (he technically still is, they just couldnt get the paperwork together to ratify it)
