Hump Day with Swanny & Friends

Big show today with some Maths Science to crunch shortly. But first things first. We get an update on the Tom Brady roast, which both Dane and Ralphy have now seen. Plenty of thoughts including repeating an explicit (yet typical roast) joke about Gisele Bündchen, Toms ex-wife.Dane has now seen Baby Reindeer and thought it was okay, and episode 4 wasn't as bad as Ralphy made out. In fact he says it turned him on and he 'rubbed one out' while he watched it. Afterwards he went down the online rabbit hole and read all about it. That said, Dane says it's no 'Tastebuds with Dane Swan' which he describes as 'Electric TV'.Into Maths Science, Dane and Ralphy kick around Thursday night footy, they love it, and will miss it when it's gone. Ralphy has a theory on what the AFL are doing. He also says that he's concerned that the Kangaroos may not survive the introduction of a Tasmanian team. Dane and Ralphy think that playing Richmond at the moment is the equivalent of a bye, and Dane says that whilst Ross Lyon is underperforming with St Kilda, no coach could get much out of the list they have.Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge.

Guest friend today is Jason Richardson and after Ralphy's horror last week at watching episode 4 of Baby Reindeer, as you'd expect on a footy focused podcast we kick off with Ralphy asking Richo about Baby Reindeer. He hasn't seen it, and Ralphy recommends against it.But what Richo is planning to see, and Dane has, is the Tom Brady roast. We kick round what Aussies would be up for being roasted, and who would not be. Dane mentions that he has seen a spit roast, but that sounds suspiciously like something else. We may be wrong.Dane believes whilst Scott Pendlebury is generally clean as a whistle and that it may be hard to roast him, he thinks Pendles has something dark and devious about him. And he reveals that in 15-years of playing footy with him he never once saw Pendles' dick, which he reckons is suss.What reality show would Dane like to go on? Once requiring not much effort. He says that if he was to go on Dancing With the Stars, he'd want a fee of a million bucks and that his partner would insist he danced with a bloke.Richo talks about the brutality of the stopwatch and how he enjoyed that about his sporting career, and we talk 'fat club' at Hawthorn. We get a Swan FC update, Dane is off to Queensland this weekend to have a kick.And as you'd expect, the Hall of Fame comes up again. Dane still flat. To add to it, Richo hasn't bothered watching Dane's new TV show....possibly because he's on a different show at the same time, but it sounds excusey.Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge.

With Sam having had her beautiful baby, but being a lazy-arse and not coming back yet, we've roped in Jason Richardson to help us with a bit of Maths Science today.Before we get to that though, we bang on about a bit of shit for a while. Dane reckons that Bucks definitely put him up as trade bait at some point. And Dane doubles down and says despite the draw, Carlton are always Collingwood's 'little bitch'. And he tells a story about playing on the road, and staying out the night before a game until 7am playing poker at the Casino.On a more serious note. Dane is 'flat' because Sam has named her baby Harley and not Dane. Ordinary. And looking at some feedback, Ralphy cops a whack for recommending Baby Reindeer, and Dane hasn't done his homework and watched it yet.Then onto Maths Science!Is Ralphy going to cash in his Freo bet? And what team does Dane reckon are on their last chance for him before he writes them off for the year?Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge.

Back with some more Maths Science to pick the lines and some of the boys best bets of the week, but before we get to that, Ralphy has read a Robbo article that he wants Dane's opinion on. Giving Brayshaw and BT a bit of a whack...always fun.Is Dane going to the Carlton v Collingwood game this week, and can he tip with his head or his heart on this one? Or neither.

A cracking guest friend today, the highly respect Dr Peter Larkins joins us and we find out how he got his start in the media, and the extraordinary scenario he found himself in with The Duck at Waverley Park in his very first game!The Doc tells us a couple of the most significant injuries he's ever seen. He tells us about getting chewed out by Geoff Walsh over how he reported one players return form injury.The Doc has a new book out, it's called 'The Healthy Hundred' and it's about how to age well. He tells us about some of the stuff in the book. You can get it pretty much anywhere, bookstores, online - but the easiest place to get it is from the Docs website - drpeterlarkins.com. As the bloke in the hat used to say, do yourself a favour.Ralphy nearly derails the pod with a joke about blokes getting colonoscopies which amuses him and Dane no end....the Doc far more professional than to engage with that sort of lowbrow humour. But the Doc doesn't miss a drive-by on Billy Brownless! We're talking about getting kids active, and Dane reveals that the only reason he started playing footy when he was a kid is because online porn wasn't around. Just imagine. And Ralphy tells a story about Israeli fighter pilots. This whole pod really has gone to shit today!But thankfully the Doc gets us back on track and there are heaps of great bits of advice about ageing well, what to do, and how to start if you're coming from a low base. Heaps of info in the pod, and the book is well worth sussing out.Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge.

AFL Maths Science is back this week for Round 7, and before we get to it Dane expresses his displeasure with Josh Rachele 'fucking' his multi last week. And he reckons everyone needs to calm the farm on Harley Reid saying that while he may well be a great player, he's not even in the Top 5 of the West Coast 2024 Best and Fairest count yet.We have some domestic chat. Dane is in trouble at home. Taylor reckons he is shithouse at cleaning and washing, whilst Dane reckons she makes it more complex than it needs to be.And in your questions, we find out what the two teams are that Dane would have liked to have played for if he hadn't been drafted by the Pies.Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge.

Kate McCarthy, former AFLW player and current Triple M Footy commentator is our guest friend today, and Swanny wants to know what the hell he has to do to get a gig with Triple M as he reckons everyone except him has one.He explains Swan FC to Kate. She is suitably impressed (or is she?) and suggests a slogan - Swan FC, Any Where, Any Time, Any Price. Kate explains why she came to Melbourne and how she got into footy commentary. Can you believe in the media centre at Marvel, there are still no female bathrooms? Kate's sick of dealing with the male bathrooms after BT, JB, et al have taken a dump and she's decided to take over one bathroom with a homemade sign.Kate brings up Swanny's hatred of sand. And he then adds wind to the list. We talk AFLW. Kate reckons the AFL got it wrong and expanded too quickly. Ralphy disagrees. We talk about players not going back with the flight of the ball, Swanny tells a story about a pre-season match with the Saints where he didn't and copped a gob full from Brendan Goddard. Did Swanny care? What do you think...Swanny and Kate agree that they were not good with pre-season training, and Swanny reveals his theory on why he came back from the break as a player in less than ideal condition. Which leads to talking 'bakes', and Swanny reckons Malthouse was the king of the bake, and says that there is no way he (Malthouse) could coach today, not with his style. Dane wonders why he got yelled at by Malthouse, but he never saw Pendles cop a spray. And he makes the comment that great offensive players can't be great defensive players, saying it is impossible.And he sneaks in a shameless plug for his new cooking show on 7mate, starts this Saturday arvo at 1.30pm. If that isn't primetime we don't know what is.Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge.

Round 6 of the AFL Season and Swanny & Ralphy are guessing lines, giving tips, ripping the piss and generally being unprofessional. Swanny talks about Nathan Murphy's loss for the Pies, and explains how the AFLPA payment system works for players who are forced to retire due to injury, how much do they get? Swanny runs through it.In the line guessing, Swanny pumps up The Cats saying 'Geelong are a remarkable team'. And talks about his fave time slot to play in, with a whack for someone on the way through saying 'Luke Hodge has no idea'....bam !And Ralphy claims that he can beat Usain Bolt in a 100 metre race if he's given a 95 metre headstart. We're not entirely convinced. Our money is on Usain.Follow us, share the pod with a mate, and support us if you feel the urge.
