This week Brian and Harrison kick things off with some general chit chat; BT gives us an update on his lookout project, they talking about the new Collingwood FC President, the boys gives their takes on the new NBA All Star game format and plenty more. Next, the lads are joined by trailblazing Australian cyclist, Phil Anderson. Phil is one of the most important figures in the globalisation of cycling, he was the first non-European to wear the yellow jersey and the first Australian to win a stage at the Tour de France, he and American, Greg Lemond were the pioneers promoting cycling outside of Europe. The chat covers; Phil's illustrious career, his move from Kew to Paris as a 19yo to peruse his love of cycling, some cracking stories from his time with some of the biggest cycling teams and personalities in the world (particularly, Bernard Hinault & Lance Armstrong), the controversies of doping in his day. They also chatted about Phil's love of the bush, where and what he's riding today and plenty more. Phil is a ripper bloke, super humble, hard-working and is an iconic figure within the Australian cycling community. We are grateful for his time.

This week Brian and Harrison kick things off with some general chatter; BT walks us through a couple of the projects he has going on at home, he shares a kidney stone story (which combines with a story of poor parenting) and Brian also shares 'the hardest thing he has ever done'. Next, the boys are joined by Australian Rules football legend and one of the most celebrated players in the game, Simon Black. 3x AFL Premierships, a Brownlow, a Norm Smith and countless other 'trinkets', there's next to nothing he hasn't done in the game. Put simply, this man of one of the greats, not just as an athlete but more so as a a man. He's humble, hardworking and was gifted with incredible skill. Always the loyal team man, he valued group achievements over the many individual accolades he received. Simon is a client of NC Management (Harrison's work), so the boys know Simon well and were able to squeeze some of the best juice out of this conversation. Hope you enjoy!
