College Diaries: Episode 5 - The Woody
We're going deep inside Ohio State’s legendary football facility – The Woody – with the best tour guide possible... Joe McGuire takes us beyond the field and into the heart of what fuels one of the most powerful programs in college sport. From early morning coffees to post-practice wraps, burgers, brisket and an ice cream machine, Joe gives us a personal tour through the incredible world of elite-level catering, nutrition, and recovery. This is where calories count, routines matter, and even the waffle machine plays its role. We step inside the longest corridor in college football, walk past trophy cabinets, film rooms – even the golf simulator, and LeBron James-supplied basketballs. A must-listen insight into the size, scale, and soul of the Ohio State Buckeyes. *** College Diaries release schedule. Subscribe to the Howie Games feed so you don’t miss an episode!

244: The Grade Cricketer (Part B)
This is content you didn't know you needed! It's time to properly meet the brilliant minds behind The Grade Cricketer – Ian Higgins and Sam Perry.

It’s comedy, it’s commentary, it’s insight, it’s quality banter… and it’s genius. You’ll hear how it all started, what keeps the show running, and how two very sharp, articulate and deeply passionate cricket tragics found themselves at the centre of the cricket universe. We've got more cricket lists than the ICC is ready for. Oh – and plenty of outrageous Grade cricket tales thrown in for good measure. This was seriously fun!
