Alex Moss and Burton DeWitt are back with a 400th episode special!

PDC world number one Luke Humphries (1:19) sits down with Alex during last week's Premier League media day in Leeds to reflect on the last 18 months since becoming world champion. Luke looks back at his PDC World Championship final win against Luke Littler, adding to his major tally with more landmark wins, including the World Matchplay and World Masters, as well as discussing how he has coped with the fame and his role as an ambassador for the game.

The boys start this week's milestone editions of the podcast by looking back on the big stories that have happened during the last 100 episodes. Alex and Burton also pick out some of their favourite guests on the show from the first 400 episodes.

PDC president Barry Hearn (37:22) joins Burton for a wide-ranging chat on all things darts. Barry delves into the PDC's recent prize money increase announcement, the organisation's new five-year deal with Sky Sports, as well as his recent conversation with Turki Al-Sheikh about bringing darts to Saudi Arabia. Barry also outlines his future plans for North America and his hopes to add a number of events to the calendar in the US and Canada in 2026.

Alex and Burton then give their review of the ProTour action in Germany this week, which saw Krzysztof Ratajski and Ross Smith both open their title accounts for the season.

PDC head of media Dave Allen (1:18:27) chats with Alex at last week's Premier League media day about his 20+ years working for the darts leader. Dave discusses how his move to join the PDC's media team first came about in 2004, and how the media landscape has changed over the last two decades, including the introduction of social media and the increase in media interest. Dave also picks out some of his most memorable moments working for the PDC and his favourite places visited during his time covering events on the tour.

The boys finish off the 400th episode special with a dip into the mailbag to answer your listener questions.
