That gets underway on 7th February and you can listen to that across BBC Sounds, 5 Sports Extra and the BBC Sport app and website.
Well, there's so much to go out from that interview, isn't there, with Harry Brooke.
I wonder what you made of it there listening.
He seems to be saying all the right things, but, Stefan, do you think he understands the weight of what's happened here and now what needs to happen?
Straightforward question this, I guess.
But is it important that journalists uncover these stories for the team to be kept honest?
Is this not associated very strongly with Brendan McCullum's attitude of remove all pressures, almost treat every game as if it's the exact same as the last one you played and the next one you're going to play?
It's all part of that thinking, isn't it?
Stefan, from Brendan McCullum's point of view, there are two changes possible here, aren't there?
I mean, one is McCullum going.
The other is that McCullum himself changes.
From listening to him, you don't get the impression that that necessarily is going to happen.
But Carl Hopkinson, for example, he's in again.
He's been brought back in as a specialist fielding coach for this Sri Lanka series and the World Cup immediately after that.
We don't know if that was McCullum's call to do so, but...
Do you think that he can adapt after all reflecting on these last few months?
Jonathan, are you at all surprised that Brendan McCullum is still in charge?
How important are these next six or so weeks for him and to the management team?
Stefan, Jonathan has talked about Rob Key in all this.
Is it possible that only one of him or McCullum survives this, given how close they are, perhaps as friends as well as working colleagues?
