The Unlaced Podcast with Jake Barker-Daish

Paul Taylor is Ex-military, Neuroscientist, Physiologist and Nutritionist that believes we are the most depressed, addicted, obese and medicated in human history yet civilisation is the most advanced it has ever been. Paul believes we all need to take a "tough winters training' as he frames it help us prepare for the inevitable difficulties in life to help us deal with stress in our lives easier. In this episode Paul details why exercise, hot therapy, cold therapy and nutrition can assist with the gremlin in your mind and life to keep you moving forward despite the "shit sandwich' life has given you. This was one of the most helpful podcasts we have ever done, and I cannot recommend this one to anyone who is eager to learn about the brain, perform and overcome obstacles with success.

Mac Andrew is fast becoming a superstar and a massive name in the AFL after only 41 games in the league and still at the age of only 20 years old. This episode we break down Mac's ability to play both ends of the field and with one of the biggest contracts in AFL history, Mac shares why he is focused on winning a premiership with the culture building on the Gold Coast. It hasn't been an easy road for Mac and his family who fled South Sudan to Egypt where Mac was born before coming to Australia with such a big family. Without doubt, Mac's story is nothing short of amazing and inspirational at the fact that he has the world at his feet and has already become a role model for his community which is a proud moment. This podcast we break down the season that was, Mac's game winner against Essendon and why working with Damien Hardwick is getting the best out of Mac Andrew's ability.

Adam Cooney joins us for one of the funnier shows of the year as we discuss the career of the only #1 draft pick to win a Brownlow medal in the AFL's history. Western Bulldogs took the talented 18-year-old from West Adelaide in 2003 who had a burst of speed and an eye for goal and would go on to play 250 games in the AFL including a short period at Essendon. The storytelling of Adam Cooney shines through as we discuss legends of the Western Bulldogs, the Rodney Eade hair sprays, 2008 - 2012 performances along with riding the wave of the Essendon doping saga. So many great aspects to this episode that all footy fans will absolutely love for instance Adam Cooney may have played a role in Brendan Fevola's Brownlow shenanigans all those years ago. Hope you all enjoy the episode and don't forget to subscribe.

Clayton Oliver joins the show for what is a rare interview and conversation. This episode I felt showcased a guy that has been one of the elite midfielders in the competition from his inception in the AFL and has experienced it all from the good, bad and indifferent. Clayton has had nine years in the competition and for six of those seasons he has averaged 30 disposals a game, won four best 'n' fairest awards at Melbourne, three All Australian selections and a Premiership across his tenure. In this episode we shine a light on Clayton being a human being dealing with extreme pressure's, his upbringing and his time in the AFL that no doubt has provided a generational midfield for the Melbourne footy club. We hope this interview shines a light on the person we don't always get to see via mainstream media. Through adversity I do admire Clayton for the fact he never gives up, works hard and gives his best for his footy club when fit and healthy. We hope you enjoy this episode and don't forget to subscribe and review our show if you're new here.

Thankyou for turning up!

Jack ‘Pharjack’ Jenkins is back on the show and fresh after his dominant performance at UFC 305 in Perth. Let’s just Jack has had a big 12 months, after an upset defeat in Sydney this man went back to the gym in silence and sharpened every tool he had. This episode highlights Jack mentality, his fight IQ and also my 48 hour challenge attempting to do everything Jack did in his fight camp. Pharjack did an eighteen-week fight camp in preparation for this fight across 3 x 6-week blocks. It was relentless, tough but this man glided through it with a performance that followed. So much for all to learn in this about not shying away from hard work and adversity. Don't forget to subscribe and leave us a review :) This was episode was just unreal!!

Jamarra Ugle-Hagan's story needs to be heard and this was opened on this podcast like it has never been before. Coming from an upbringing within the Gunditjmara land an indigenous mission, his story will leave you wondering, it will leave you in awe and it heightens the achievement of going pick #1 in the AFL draft in the 2020 draft. Jamarra is having his best season to date in the AFL with the Bulldogs right in the mix of this finals series with their upcoming clash with Hawthorn in the finals. We break Jamarra's growth in the last four seasons which his upbringing show's why he is always doing the extra bits to get ahead and taking nothing for granted.

I'd argue that Dan McStay's last 12 months have been the hardest out of any individual AFL Footballer in terms of setbacks. Dan did his MCL right before Collingwood's Grand Final win forcing him to miss the big dance along with an ACL rupture day 2 of this year's pre season. This is why this episode was truly remarkable when you listen to Dan's attitude and mindset, it's no wonder why he came back early and looked like he never left. We break down in this episode his trade from Brisbane which after 8 seasons was no small decision along with the experience, he has with playing with some of the best midfielders of the modern game. Dan speaks through the coaching styles of Chris Fagan and Craig McRae which was just incredible insight to two of the best in the game.

Brodie Holland is a former AFL player for both Collingwood and Fremantle Football Club. Brodie has a really smart footy brain which I loved picking apart throughout this episode particularly around the areas of the game that have changed from the early 2000s up until now. We dived into the unpredictable AFL season 2024 which Brodie breaks down a few of the top teams along with his beloved Collingwood. It is hard to argue that Brodie played in an era in the AFL where some of the greatest midfields had existed which prompted so much discussion about his experiences where he just fell short of a Grand Final win. He chased the best players every week and was challenged with becoming the fittest player at Collingwood. Brodie's insights and breakdowns throughout this episode are just super interesting and he holds just a great outlook on footy.

Jack Higgins may be smaller in stature, but he tends to play footy like he is the tallest man on the field with his confidence and work ethic. It's no surprise he is in the AFL kicking goals in multiples and returning from what was a life-threatening brain injury throughout his Richmond career. The character in the man is what stood out to me with his dedication from a young kid all the way up until now with his training regime and mental strength development. One of the great characters we have in the AFL that had me in stitches throughout the show and has a vast sporting knowledge which he uses for fuel to get him ready for gameday. Jack's someone you love as soon as you meet them and that's when I knew this was special person. I hope you enjoy the episode as much as I did!

Luke Dyson known as Dyson Ink on social media has achieved so much virality across his craft as a tattooist. Most people see the incredible skill and art across his realism tattoos, but I see a guy that is dedicated to his business and knows how to market his product. Luke Dyson is one of those guys you go to when you need life advice cause its likely he has been through either the same thing or he just knows what to say all the time. Omnia Tattoo is the proud studio Luke has built which simply put has the best vibe to it when you walk in, however, this was no overnight success. Working through different periods in LA and Miami after honing his craft in Melbourne., Luke was able to work with trendsetters in the tattoo game that opened the door to working and rubbing shoulders with various celebrities and hip hop artist.

He is intuitive to his surroundings and his measure with his delivery has seen his social media following explode over the last couple of years. Viral content consistently is not easy and the journey of Rachid is nothing but hard work given he entered the space back in 2011 before taking almost an eight year break from content. The man is back now bigger than ever, and we speak through his journey, ambitions and gain valuable lessons into taking life into your own hands.

Peter 'Pistol' Hooley has an incredibly powerful basketball story that provides real insight into majority of athlete's endeavour's to the top of their field. This podcast isn't just for the Basketball fan as the show entails working through challenges, setbacks and how to push through to see the good in everything. Pistol won an NBL championship with Melbourne United and was what I like to call him a 'College legend' as you will hear some incredible stories in the show. In between those two points it's fair to say Peter Hooley had to fight for everything he got which makes him really admirable but also gives this shower for everyone's learning. We also review the NBA season that was and the NBA Finals that saw the Boston Celtic's triumph. It was so much and fun very detailed around what fighting what you want can look like.

This is an episode filled with EURO 2024 mayhem with some bold predictions and insights on a tournament that could be anyone's. Kat Sasso joins me again where we go through each group to look at qualification, who we think are dark horses for the tournament and our players to watch which could light up the EURO 2024 stage in Germany. We also cover the end of the European domestic season at club level which highlights trophy winners, manager changes and Man City's 115 financial fair play charges against them. This was fun, energetic and of course we brought some bold predictions to the table given this tournament always throws some shocks and twists throughout. We hope you enjoy it :)

Tayo Ricci's wild ride of social media has been nothing short of amazing over the past 2 years. He has developed over 15 million followers across all his social channels by his version of looking into human psychology and what the brain is drawn to for viral clips. No doubt a master of his trade but the level of intelligence Tayo exemplifies within this episode highlights his success and his level headed approach. His content people would argue is funny, superficial and a constant show of his Zeus like body figure but I feel this podcast uncovers why you should never judge a book by its cover and continue to understand that to get to the top in anything will always come back to hard work. This dedicated young man gave our platform one of the most interesting intellectual conversations we have had on the show and I thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. We hope you enjoy the episode also :)

Zinedine Machach has lit the A-League on fire for Melbourne Victory this season as they embark on another Grand Final appearance. Tony Popovic’s backing for Zizou was what has been pivotal to the Marseille born star’s fancy foot work, creativity and goals which has made him arguably one of the most impactful signings across the A-League. His humility, talent and laid back character highlight why he was signed by Serie A giants Napoli under Mauricio Sarri where he contstantly experienced loan moves across different clubs in Europe which made it difficult for him to settle. He now has him home in Melbourne Victory where his football is doing all the talking!! I hope you enjoy the episode :)

Steven Baker was as fierce, tough and truly loved by his own as much as any AFL player over the last 25 years. He has such an incredible story of getting into the an AFL set up which was a longshot to missing his first training session with the Saints after a night out with Barry Hall and Aussie Jones. People forget Steven Baker won a Best n Fairest at the Saints and played over 200 games including three Grand Finals. Stevie really personifies the effort factor in life to keep pushing forward and finding ways to be successful which I felt was the true message in this show. A hilarious bloke that is as honest and raw as they come which made this such a wonderful episode. Hope you enjoy :)

Taylor Adams epitomises a fierce midfielder in the AFL that leaves no stone unturned when it comes to preparation and performance. His incredible career has spanned across three clubs including the Giants, Collingwood and now the famed Sydney Swans. In this episode Tay breaks down why and how the Collingwood moved which had a few exclusives around the discussions had internally before the move to Sydney eventuated. There is no doubt the Swans have taken Taylor in with open arms as he breaks down some of the absolute superstars within their team and few high quality players that took him by surprise when joining the club. A runner up in the Norm Smith medal, Collingwood Best 'n' Fairest and an All Australian to his name. This was one of our best footy fans and I know you guys will absolutely love this episode.

Trigger Warning - Suicide Is Spoke Of In This Episode.

This might be the most moving episode and open conversation we have ever had on this show. Lauren McDonough shares her story of battling with mental illness and her attempt at suicide which she was incredibly lucky to escape. Her outlook on the mental health system in Australia was incredibly insightful as she talks through a taboo topic which this episode tries to normalise as suicide has touched many in society one way or another. We breakdown the difference between working through mental health and the difference with people living with mental illness.

This episode was one of the hardest but most valuable interviews I have ever conducted on this platform and understandably this may not be a conversation for everyone but if you do know anyone out there that needs to hear this do share it on. We hope you can gain something out of this just like I did.

Terry Antonis was already a star in Australian Football at the age of 10 winning a competition with Adidas and getting the chance to train with David Beckham. Becks went on to say he had not seen talent in a kid so young for a long time which made headlines in Australia. Terry trained everyday with his dad and it wasn't easy for a kid with so much spotlight and pressure on him but that ended building such a strong resilience within. Terry joined Everton as a kid where he built a brotherhood with Tim Cahill before coming back to the AIS and joining Sydney FC at 16. A wonderkid that has forged a career throughout the A-League and across big clubs like Suwon Bluewings and Panathinaikos. This guy is one of my best mates in football that I am still close with to this day, it was such a fun and powerful episode!

Ash Williams Is introducing his new comedy show across Melbourne called Dinner's Getting Cold which is running across the 13th and 20th. Ash in not just a stand up comedian but he is the type of guy to be funny when it seems like he isn't even trying. In this episode, Ash shares some stories from his time in LA which had me in stitches from topless waitering, to being tickled for money along with the hustle and bustle of breaking into the comedy industry. This man is well and truly entrenched into comedy in Australia and his hilarious nature and outlook on life made this an episode to remember as we talked through everything and nothing. I hope you enjoy the show and don't forget to subscribe or leave a review if you are yet to :)

Hayden Crozier has just announced his retirement from the AFL after playing 140 games across both Fremantle and the Western Bulldogs through its entirety. Croz goes through in this episode the brutal nature of the AFL and how he had to transform his body by adding weight to it just to stand a chance of playing a game in his early years. Some of the players Hayden has played with in his career are special and we detail the levels of Nat Fyfe, Matthew Pavlich and Marcus Bontempelli just to name a few. Having worked with both Ross Lyon and Luke Beveridge, Hayden's insights on high level performance and the rigors of the game come through in this episode on a level we haven't experienced before. This was a truly fun episode with a character well loved by all his team mates on any team that he has played on. I really enjoyed shooting this one which held many laughs within the show.

Tom Boyd's career has been well heralded for some years becoming the number #1 draft pick in the AFL in 2013 to only walk away from the game after 5 years and 61 games across both GWS and the Bulldogs. Despite experiencing one of the most incredible finals runs to win a Premiership with the Bulldogs, Tom's body and mind was always in a continuous battle to whether Footy was the right place for him. This episode was enlightening to the fact at how media had details wrong about Tom's exit to the game which through this discussion showed courage and also an awareness for a bigger purpose in life. This man I found super intelligent and someone that I consider to only know excellence which says a lot about Tom Boyd and his story. I really hope you enjoyed this one as much as I did :)

John Van Wisse is one of Australia's greatest ever triathletes, with an incredible CV of achievements to name a couple: World Record Holder for the Enduroman Arch to Arch event(run, bike and swim from London to Paris), the fastest Australian to swim the English Channel, a winner of the New Zealand Half Ironman and has won the New York - Manhattan Island Marathon 3x. The lengths to which John Van Wisse has taken his body over the last 25 years is inhumane, something I was really interested in talking to him about was his mentality to challenge, hardship and further understand what is his why to drive him so far. People may know David Goggins, but believe me you need to know John Van Wisse and his inspiring outlook on life.

One thing that is evident in Tommy is his mindset and positivity which I am sure in this episode you can see why he is able to translate skill sets into different fields and be successful instantly.

Alex Woodward's journey is one of the most unique and inspiring a person can come across. After being drafted to Hawthorn in the AFL in 2011 at pick 53, Alex had the world at his feet. What Alex would go on to endure over the next 7 years is beyond words. After rupturing his ACL 5 times following being drafted and managing only a handful of AFL games, Alex made the choice to retire at the age of 27. You'd think such terrifying outcomes could break a person, but not Alex. I think it's safe to say these incredibly harsh experiences have made Alex one of the most inspiring, resilient and admirable characters that we can all learn from. We hope you enjoy listening to his powerful story!

The Unlaced Podcast is a platform to help humanise athletes and shine a light on the inevitable transition all athletes face when their careers as professional athletes comes to an end. A driving purpose for this outlet is to enable athletes to understand what the common hurdles are with transitioning out of their chosen sports into a more common way of life. Building awareness around the importance of athlete education, mental health, finding alternative interests outside of physical professional performance and building a mindset that can find stimulus outside of their desired sporting careers. Oh and of course we have a whole lot of fun in the process!

HP Boyz with HP Onit and HP YJ join me for their first interview in over 3 years. This was our first artist group ever on the show and we got to hear a few exclusives from the group. HP Boyz represent the South East of Melbourne more specifically Hampton Park where the boys provide insight into the harsh realities of the environment. In this episode we go through so much of the HP Boyz history from released music, group changes, One Four Documentary and the Drill Rap scene. An episode I am so grateful for that we could get the boys on. It has been a hell of 2023 and what a finish to the year with an episode for you all with two of the biggest rap artists in the country. I hope you enjoy :)

Jack Hanley is beyond an inspiration and I did all I could to get this man on the show to get the juice off him which I think we delivered. The Crazy Running Man as he is known just achieved a feat that stretches the brain with running 50km a day for 50 days. Why I admire Jack, is he came on the show and shared the darkness he went through struggling addiction with alcohol, drugs and gambling from 2013 through to 2020 and made an example of how he wanted to change to live a better life. Jack's dedication to ultra events are tied to a mental health charity called Out of The Blue which has raised over $55k in the last 3 months. This is a podcast for everyone that is seeking a way to get better in life, to act on change and surpass your limits of exercise. I hope you legends enjoy this one :)

Tom Mitchell joins for one of the shows of the year as we dive into the trade of the year which saw Tommy win the Premiership at his new home Collingwood. We go into why Tom Mitchell was born to play AFL and where he gets his unwavering work ethic and focus from. The recruitment war that took place in 2011 for the draft pick of Mitchell is a story that has not been shared like this before and I found absolutely mind blowing. We also break down why Alistair Clarkson got the best footy out of Mitchell which led to the 2nd place in the Brownlow in 2017 and the 2018 Brownlow win. This was an incredible episode about one of the great footy players in the comp for the last 10 years. So many nuggets to take from this I hope you enjoy :)

Mason Wood has had a rollercoaster journey across his AFL career but his level headed approach and invaluable perspective on tough moments is why he is hitting the top of his game at the Saints at 30 years old. We go through his journey at North Melbourne which after 50 games Mason shed's light on that he had more scans on his body than AFL Games which is crazy. He hit highs at North but found a new home in the St.Kilda footy club where he is playing a role bigger than an on-field player which doesn't always attract the limelight. His most consistent form and games per season is at an all time high and is no doubt a key player for the club going forward. Absolutely loved this chat and found it very helpful to learn off Mason's mindset through the good and the bad.

Azam Abdallah, Aamir Abdallah and Huss Idris known as 'the truth' brought the drama and controversy around all the key topics in world football at the moment. The Galacticoz podcast is famous for the family banter shared in a lounge room that would make you mistake a conversation for an argument and has become one of my favourite shows to watch. With that, this episode brought great entertainment and football knowledge which I absolute love bringing to our podcast. I hope you enjoy the show!! :)

Steele Sidebottom joins the show this week to break down the Grand Final that was and talk more broadly about his journey into the Pies and why Steele will never take any minute for granted playing the game he loves. I love everything about Rusty, such a good bloke that is honest about his craft as we go through all of his epic journey at the Collingwood Football Club. This was an episode I have been wanting for a long time and I think it really delivered as Rusty and I laugh, smile and re-live one of the most admirable careers in the game.

I'd like to think this episode brings out a story in Adam Treloar which has not been publicly shared to the level it deserves. Adam Treloar is from one of the roughest neighbourhoods in Melbourne and grew up in a manner less fortunate as others. It's remarkable to watch Adam Treloar go about his business on a footy field and how he carries himself off the field through all the challenge he has encompassed pre-AFL and during his tenure in the system. Loved by all three clubs he has played for across GWS, Collingwood and currently the Western Bulldogs which says a lot about his footy ability and him as a person. I hope you enjoy the show :)

The boys from Marmalade Australia define anything is possible. When you equate a couple of blokes who play division 12 footy who then blow up on TikTok and bring chocolate milk back into fashion with a high level sense of humour I knew this was going to make for a great episode. Joel Eyles, Riley Srey and Will Taylor join me on the show to talk about their recent rise to stardom which encompasses their quirky nature which I truly loved. These boys have AFL running through their veins and their brand has been marketed to the mass audience of footy fanatics that don't play AFL in the most humorous way possible. Definitely a great episode which involved a lot of laughter and deep footy chat. I hope you enjoy the episode!! :).

The mandem shows are back and I am so pumped about it. These are some of my favourite shows when I get to bring some of my best mates on the podcast and share how hilarious they all are.

This is Ljubo Milicevic's first interview in seven years and we were honoured to be the platform to bring forward his story after such time. Ljubo is well known for his professional football career and achieveing heights in the game not many Australian's can say. Playing for the Socceroos throughout 2005-2007 in the golden generation, captaining his European club in the Champions League at only 25 and becoming what some would say as a polarising character in the game. Ljubo is truly an amazing human being and speaks candidly about suffering from depression post football, his transition to the other side of life and embracing what the future brings for him. I felt this was such an enjoyable show to be a part of with Ljubo's sense of humor and outlook on life as something to strive for.

Isaac John (Ice) and Jordan Simi are one of the funniest combinations we have ever had on the show. Ice is known for co-founding You Know The Rules (YKTR) which has incredible quality clothing, sports content and cultural content that he has been pushing out and has built one of the biggest followings in Australia/New Zealand. Jordan Simi who has worked for Ice at YKTR has an incredibly high comedy IQ and the real gift of the gab with grabbing a rooms attention and making you laugh. Both of these guys are empowering people to be around and I really love the ambition they both share across content creation and life.

An episode that pulls on your heartstrings but leaves you inspired and having the utmost of admiration for former NRL player, Keegan Hipgrave, Keegan had to be medically retired after a series of concussion injuries across his 49 games in the NRL for both the Gold Coast Titans and Parramatta Eels. Gut-wrenching news for any athlete to fathom who has given their all to make it to the top, however, Keegan's positivity and mindset stand out in this episode as something powerful beyond measure. A truly encapsulating episode that really puts things into perspective across sport and life. Keegan is now a mental health advocate and gives his time to people with disabilities to help brighten up their lives. I hope you enjoy the show :)

Jack Jenkins is rising in the UFC after 2 fights and 2 wins as we head into the Sydney UFC card in September. Jack just beat a really trick opponent in Jamall Emmers at a UFC Fight Night in Jacksonville which has now given momentum to our Australian star leading into his next confirmed fight at UFC Sydney. Jack and I have had a crazy few weeks hanging out with the Nelk Boys which we dive into along with discussing his stardom in the UFC and how Jack is chasing his dream of being a UFC World Champion. I think this guy could be a cultural icon soon and the best part about Jack is his humility and genuine love for combat sports. I hope you enjoy the show :)

A podcast that encompassed probably more of a celebration for the incredible last 12 months of achievement for my great friend, Jamie Maclaren. If you didn't know, Jamie just broke the A-League goal scoring record as he now sits on 143 goals one above previous record holder Besart Berisha. The last season of football has shown the ups and downs in the game for Jamie, experiencing challenge off field, going to his second World Cup with the Socceroos, breaking the goal record and losing to Central Coast in the Grand Final. One of the great podcasts as Jamie and I dive into the incredible ride he has been on for the last 12 months. I hope you enjoy the show :)

100 episodes guys we did it! thankyou so much for your continued support and loyalty to the show. We decided to flip the script for the 100th show with an idea that spurred back around the time of the 20th episode from my friend Sebastian Gotch who wanted to interview me. This was something I had never felt comfortable on opening up about it due to still healing from the passed in regard to my soccer journey. However, I felt it was time as this platform was growing to share why I started this show, why I am so interested in athletes and to give more context to me, your host! I hope that you enjoy this episode and again thankyou for your continuous support it means the world. Don't forget to give the show a rating and hit subscribe if you're new here :)

Beau McCreery is nearing 50 games for the famous Collingwood Football Cub after being drafted back in 2020. Beau's story is fascinating after missing out on his draft year and almost giving up on the possibility of AFL and move into a more permanent career as a carpenter. Despite changes all around the club in his first year to Beau's admission the environment, coach and playing group couldn't be any better for a young bloke beginning his career in the AFL. Collingwood are flying and so is Beau who is loving his footy at the moment and throughout the episode Beau touches on his journey to the AFL, takes us inside the four walls of the Pies and the admiration he shares for so many of his team mates skill levels. I love Beau's nature and the separation he gives himself from footy outside of his training schedule which I think helps him to continue to play in the best team in the competition.

Josh Bruce exemplifies resilience across the AFL after fighting through trades to two different clubs and various serious injury setbacks including an ACL tear in 2021 which led to missing the Grand Final. In this episode I was incredibly grateful how raw and honest Josh was opening up about his highs and lows in the game including receiving death threats only a couple of weeks ago from weak individuals, it took a brave man to share what he did. Josh is player of versatility that can kick a bag of 8 and play a key defensive role when needed for the Western Bulldogs. At the age of 31, Josh has found a level head and manages through scrutiny and expectation with a more light hearted view. An incredible episode that gives real insight to the real athlete and the rigor of professional sport.

Alex 'Poatan' Pereira is currently a top 10 pound for pound fighter in the UFC and is the former Middleweight Champion of the World who has now moved up into the Light Heavyweight division. A story nothing short of amazing with a harsh upbringing in the favelas of Brasil which saw Alex take a decision to step into kickboxing to look to build himself a better life path and avoid taking a wrong turn. Without doubt 'Poatan' (known as stone hands) has had a dominant career in the combat game accomplishing an incredible record in the professional kickboxing game beating the likes of Israel Adesanya before moving over to the UFC in 2021. It didn't take long for Alex to shock the world by winning the World Middleweight Championship knocking out a familiar rival in Israel Adesanya in the championship rounds. One of the highlights of our show so far as we discuss Alex's rise to the top in MMA, understanding World Champion mentality and how the focus is now on becoming the World Light Heavyweight Champion in the UFC. Hell of a show and thankyou Plinio Cruz for supporting translation throughout the episode.

Todd Murphy's rise in the Cricketing world is nothing short of remarkable after an impressive 12 months across all formats of cricket that led to selection for Australia's test tour in India. Todd was raised in Moama in New South Wales and currently bowls left arm off spin for the Victorian Bushrangers along with the Sydney Sixers in the BBL. Getting the call up to the Australian Cricket team caught Todd initially by surprise but his performance's over in India against one of the best batting line ups in the world showed only that he belonged on the international stage. Taking 7 wickets in his first test and dismissing Virat Kohli were a few notable highlights across the series. A fascinating insight into the Australian Cricket dressing room, Todd's cricketing background and the upcoming Ashes tour are all things we cover in the episode.

You can't not admire a guy with Nic Newman's journey into the AFL. Everything outside of the traditional pathway into the system, Nic definitely had to rely on self-belief and hope that an opportunity into the AFL world would open up after going undrafted. Sydney picked Nic in the rookie draft in 2015 which brough forward a lot of learning along with his first opportunity to make a mark on the league. After 4 years at the Swans, the man has never looked back since finding a permanent home to Carlton whereby plying his trade in a stacked position on the half back flank. Nic has been able to find consistency and influence in one of the up-and-coming footy teams in the comp under the captaincy of Patrick Cripps and coach Michael Voss. A great episode if you're falling short of your goals and are pursuing something that takes challenge. Hope you enjoy :) - Dont forget to follow,subscribe and like the show.

Harry Grant is only 25 years old which is hard to believe given the accomplishments and the character displayed by the Melbourne Storm Hooker.  Harry has now played 50 games in the NRL and already has an Origin Series win along with a World Cup medal to his name. In some regards its hard to believe how quickly success has found Harry, however, if you look at his journey from his childhood in Yeppoon all the way up until his Queensland Cup days its no surprise with the amount of resilience needed across Harry's journey that he is reaping the rewards. Harry's humour is infectious throughout this episode as we go back through his upbringing in Yeppoon and talk about his rise to the top which has been nothing short of smooth sailing.

It is fair to say that Bruno Fornaroli has been one of the most impactful A-League imports in our history. From his goalscoring, creativity and dominance since his arrival in 2015, Bruno has been a classic south american striker lifting fans off their seats. From Salto in Uruguay, which is renowned for the production of Edinson Cavani and Luis Suarez, Bruno has managed to flourish since landing on our shores and becoming the oldest Socceroo at the age of 34 which in itself is a remarkable achievement. A very humourous, focused and classy guy. I really enjoyed this conversation with one of our league's best who feels rejuvenated since joining Melbourne Victory.  Don't forget to leave a review, like and subscribe to the show :)

Q as they call him is known for his ferocious and explosive speed on the footy field but I cannot lie, what I like the most is his humble, generous and polite nature. Coming from humble beginnings in a large family and his dad from Ghana in Africa, Isaac has had to earn everything he has received across his career. Isaac has stabilised himself in one of the best performing starting 22's in the AFL at Collingwood. A huge future for a player and character every team would love to have.

Miles and Archie Shepherd make up the duo of the infamous Shepmates which took over the internet at the end of 2021. I found this episode  so motivating, inspiring and hilarious as these two boys have no fear and love to say yes to open new doors.The epitome of anything is possible as the duo recreate sporting moments with theatrics from the commentary box which has Australia and beyond in stitches. The boys from the peninsula have big goals and have been having engagements with legends like Shane Warne, Adam Gilchrist and Harry Kewell which they can't even believe.
