#418: James Wade, Gary Anderson, World Grand Prix Preview

The Weekly Dartscast

Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a new episode of your go-to darts podcast ahead of the World Grand Prix!

The boys start this week's show with a look back at the Swiss Darts Trophy and discuss personal best runs for Luke Woodhouse (final) and Cor Dekker (semi-finals), before giving their thoughts on Dave Chisnall (World Grand Prix) and reigning European champion Ritchie Edhouse (European Championship) missing out on upcoming major events.

Gary Anderson (21:03) sits down with Alex at the Unicorn 2026 launch to discuss his long and successful partnership with Unicorn, having joined the brand in 2011, as well as his life outside of darts and his passions for fishing and classic cars, his first five years owning his own fishery, and looks ahead to his 25th World Championship campaign across all codes in December and his bid to add another PDC major to his collection.

Alex and Burton continue the show with their preview for the World Grand Prix, which starts in Leicester on Monday. The boys pick out their favourite first-round ties and then make their predictions for who they think will be lifting the trophy a week on Sunday.

James Wade (46:05) also joins Alex at the Unicorn 2026 launch to discuss being a part of Team Unicorn for more than 20 years, having joined the brand in 2004, as well his recent deep runs in the major events, including the finals of the UK Open and World Matchplay, how darts has changed in the 20 years since he first joined the PDC tour and we ask what has been his favourite walk-on song he's used over the years!
