    01/06/2026 | 55 mins.
    This week Brian and Harrison intro the show by covering all the major topics in their lives and within the AFL, including: the passing of Neale Daniher, the Brad Scott / James Hird Essendon saga, the Enhanced Games the cave rescue in Loas, and plenty more.

    Their guest this week is Australian Diamonds captain, and international netball superstar, Liz Watson.

    One of the biggest names in world netball, Liz takes the boys inside the world of elite sport, covering everything from captaining the Diamonds and performing on the biggest stages, to the preparation, pressure, and standards required to stay at the top.

    The conversation explores the growth of women’s sport in Australia, the increasing professionalism of netball, and what the future holds for the next generation of athletes. Liz also shares her journey to the elite level, the sacrifices along the way, and what continues to drive her after achieving so much in the game.

    As always, BT finds a way to compare everything back to footy, leading to plenty of laughs and some great banter along the way. A conversation with one of Australian sport's most admired athletes, and someone who represents her sport with absolute class.

    #125 Seth O'Donnell - Elite Australian middle-distance runner

    25/05/2026 | 56 mins.
    This week Brian and Harrison intro the show by covering all the major topics in their lives and within the AFL, including: Scott Pendlebury’s record break game, Brian's advice for young travellers, celebrating 1 million podcast downloads, and plenty more.

    Their guest this week is elite Australian middle-distance runner Seth O’Donnell. A proud Hawthorn Football Club supporter, Seth settles straight into the banter with BT as they bounce between footy, running, and everything in between.

    The boys chat about Seth’s remarkable rise into elite athletics, despite coming to the sport later than most of his competitors. He shares how he went from a talented runner to competing at the highest level, what drives him to keep improving, and why personal achievement means more to him than medals, rankings, or recognition.

    They also dive into the exciting future of Australian track and field, the new generation of athletes coming through, and what it takes to perform in one of the most physically demanding sports on the planet. Seth gives an insight into his training, recovery, and high-performance mindset, while also balancing life and work as a physiotherapist.

    #124 Mike Amor - Veteran journalist & foreign correspondent

    18/05/2026 | 1h 15 mins.
    This week Brian and Harrison intro the show by covering all the major topics in their lives and within the AFL, including: BTs big weekend calling games in 4x different states, his experience at the prestigious Cathedral Gold Course, the Scott Pendlebury 433 games milestone, a very honest AFL club mid-year review, the Federal Budget, the Dan Andrews statue, and plenty more.

    Their guest this week is veteran journalist and foreign correspondent, Mike Amor, a fascinating look behind the curtain of global news.

    After decades covering some of the biggest stories in the world as Channel Seven’s US Bureau Chief, Mike shares what it was really like reporting from the front line of history. From 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina, to mass shootings, natural disasters, and conflict zones across the globe.

    The boys chat about the adrenaline, pressure, and unpredictability that comes with life as a foreign correspondent, along with the personal sacrifice involved, time away from family, working in dangerous environments, and the emotional toll of witnessing tragedy up close.

    Mike also reflects on writing his book 'News Cowboys', sharing some incredible behind-the-scenes stories from a career that’s taken him all over the world before eventually returning home to Australia as a lead anchor on 7News Melbourne.

    Insightful, entertaining, full of perspective and plenty of fun, this is a brilliant chat with one of Australia’s most experienced newsmen.

    One of the most fun and energetic chats we’ve had. Bec brings the energy, calls it as she sees it, and keeps BT honest at every turn. There something in this one for everyone.
