Hump Day with Swanny & Friends

Girl Dad Dane

Season 6, Ep. 1

With Samantha selfishly prioritising helping provide for her family and letting it get in the road of our podcast, the lads at Bulldogs Studios hosted us.

Dane spoke of the joys of being a new Dad of wonderful twin girls, and the amazing coincidence of him choosing to join the workforce in 2023.

Ralphy opened up about the anguish of being tagged into a dumb tweet which prompted Dane not to apologise.

The audio is woeful but what more do you expect from us without Samantha, We’re back!

  • 8. Guest Friend - Jack Watts

    45:09
    Hear how Jack's Mum walked in on Nic Naitanuii and while we didnt think we'd take that turn, we were relieved we did when some of the other topics covered were, well...not appropriate to be written in show notes!Other topics that were discussed in the episode that we can mention here were Jack's take on what is like to be so shit at something you are supposed to be so good at and how he is not just male meat...thankfully he cleared up he wasn't interested in sleeping with any of us from the get go. Jack discussed some of the greats he played with and how he went from number 1 draft pick who lost sleep over pre season to not having seen more than a handful of games live, since. Enjoy this candid funny chat with a guy who's voice is meant for radio.Follow and support us elsewherePodcast : @swannyandfriendsDane: @danes84Samantha @samantharichesRalphy: racetrackralphy.com.auGuest Friend: Jack Watts @jrwattts__Skwosh club: https://www.skwosh.com.au/ @skwoshclubPodcast @theoverlyexcitedpodcast_Support us in the Merch store: Shop here :)Gambling hotline: 1800 858 858

We discovered the Perfect Job for Eddie and discussed whatever that Helmut tap was?There really is nothing we wont chat about...except whatever it was that was sent in and Ralphy censored from us...Must of been something juicy!...and its all thanks to you the people. Thanks for sending them in, we look forward to the next batch next week.Follow and support us elsewherePodcast : @swannyandfriendsDane: @danes84Samantha @samantharichesRalphy: racetrackralphy.com.auSupport us in the Merch store: Shop here :)Gambling hotline: 1800 858 858

  • 3. How sincere do you think that apology was?

    54:35
    Look there was another name we really wanted to call this episode (And you'll find out inside) but we value the fact that somehow we are still on air and wanted to stay that way for a little bit longer so here it is, enjoy it while it lasts.The phrase "I don't know what that means?" was thrown around a lot and Dane's brain was pickled 2 mins in.We chimed in on the Sam Kerr debate and discussed who handled it better, her or Heath Shaw?Unpack the Jimmy Webster/ Jye Simpkin incident with a Clarko apology in there too & got to some cracking "Listener questions"You're welcomeFollow and support us elsewherePodcast : @swannyandfriendsDane: @danes84Samantha @samantharichesRalphy: racetrackralphy.com.auSupport us in the Merch store: Shop here :)
