Damo squares up at Bill over his news breaking; Hawthorn's Jarman Impey joins us after the Hawks win over Essendon; JB puts the tough questions to AFL CEO Andrew Dillon; and the Quiz descends into chaos.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Howie, Chief, Browny, and Damo kick things off with their most notable headlines from the week - including an awful Premiership defense, and dog stealing. Browny asks the boys about a situation he encountered on a plane, and Chief gives everyone a Geography quiz - which ends up being VERY one-sided. Super-Producer Herbie takes the team through the perils of modern dating, then they chat about Dylan Moore and Connor MacDonald's Scissor Lift adventure in Arizona - plus a look back at another US misadventure involving Chief. Browny wants everyone to be less angry, Chief rips out some more famous movie monologues, the team share who they'd like for a backyard gig, and Browny seeks to educate about Australia's most common chronic disease in men. Kane Cornes has taken a little swipe at two Huddle members, Hawthorn's Will Day joins the boys as he goes through his injury rehab, Browny has a Top 5 commentator/host cockups, and the boys preview the mouthwatering games on this weekend.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Christian O'Connell dives into the latest controversy surrounding two AFL stars who've been making headlines for all the wrong reasons. He shares his thoughts on the media frenzy surrounding their antics, comparing it to the infamous Ned Kelly stories of the past. Christian reflects on how things have changed, and how this kind of behavior wouldn't have even made the news back in his day. He also discusses the consequences the players are facing and how the public's reaction has been over the top. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Billy kicks off a shambolic show with the All Sports Report, as an NBA record is almost broken. Channel 7 Chief Footy Reporter Mitch Cleary is in studio for the first of his weekly appearances with the latest footy news - including potential changes to the AFL's Drug Policy, and Hawthorn's Scissor Lift drama. Zane and Mitch battle it out in the Hump Day Quiz, and we want you to help Billy with his jokes. Mick Molloy calls in to preview tonight's episode of Front Bar, then it's the Wacky World of William - with a HR warning for JB. Billy goes one-on-one with Hawthorn champion Jack Gunston, then finishes the show with a joke about a precariously placed golf ball.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Richmond’s big Round 1 clash with arch-rival Carlton is the hot topic of conversation on the latest episode of the Talking Tigers podcast.

We are officially 4 days out from Essendon's Round 1 clash with Hawthorn, under lights at the MCG on March 13 and between now and then, we're doing something a little bit different. Leading into the 2025 Season, we counted down our Top 100 Essendon players since 1980. In 2026, we're kicking off a daily countdown to Round 1, 2026 but instead of just ticking off days on a calendar, we're counting them down through Essendon's guernsey numbers. Who wore it first. Who wore it most. Which Premiership players pulled it on. Brownlow winners, club legends, cult heroes, and sometimes the obscure one-gamer that still forms part of the story.   By the time we get to Number 1, we'll be on the eve of Round 1 — and we'll have walked through more than a century of Essendon history, one jumper at a time. Guernsey Number 4 - a number that quietly carries Brownlow medals, Premierships, leadership and legacy. We'll be back tomorrow for Day 3 and Guernsey Number 3. _______________________ Links: Don The Stat Website | The Official Home of Don The Stat  Don The Stat Patreon Don The Stat on Facebook  Don The Stat on Instagram  Follow Us on X / Twitter Jono / Ian

Exclusive interviews to analysis, match recaps to podcasts, the Insiders have you covered.“If we get the development right, we should be even better in '27, '28 and '29.”- Rob McCartney Our first ever live panel show at the Kennedy Community Centre was one of those nights that reminded us how special the Hawks Insiders community is. From guided tours of the facilities to special guests (including some unexpected ones in the crowd!), the Hawks really rolled out the brown and gold carpet for us.For those who couldn't make it along — or if you just want to relive the night — we're publishing the full panel interview with Hawthorn Executive General Manager of Football Rob McCartney and Box Hill head coach (and Hawthorn development coach) Dave Mirra as a pod.Rob gave a few clues about the next wave of players pushing for their Hawthorn debut and the famous Rule 529; while Miz offered a fascinating insight into how the Box Hill–Hawthorn pipeline actually works behind the scenes.

GWS Giants player Connor Idun joined us ahead of Saturday's season opener against Hawthorn and revealed he doesn't listen to ACDC or pump-up music before games—instead he listens to "sad songs" like Olivia Rodrigo's "Deja Vu" and Lewis Capaldi to get in the zone because he's more of a calm operator. He also explained his number 39 comes from matching the alphabet to numbers where I (his last name initial) equals 39, and designed a new cap with Harry Himmelberg dropping in May.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Join the FREE Astro-Herbalism Mini-Course that's happening right now: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/astro-herbalism-mini-course/ In medical astrology, the Sun represents the gravitational center of the psyche and of the body. Just as the planets orbit the Sun, so too does our physiology organize itself around a central core of vitality, expressed through the heart, the circulation of blood, and the distribution of warmth throughout our organism.  When the solar principle is strong, we see resilience, clarity, steady immunity, and a sense of inner coherence. When it is weak, patterns of fatigue, coldness, poor circulation, and psychoemotional instability may emerge. In this episode, I'll explore four medicinal plants that are powerful expressions of the solar archetype. Through the lenses of heart, warmth, vitality, and spirit, we'll examine how Hawthorn, Angelica, Ashwagandha, and St. John's Wort restore the solar force within us, bridging alchemical philosophy with grounded clinical application. Here's what you'll learn: The deeper alchemical and medical astrology meaning of the Sun as the center of the psyche and the body The Sun's rulership of the heart, cardiovascular system, and core vitality How solar vitality influences immune strength and resilience Why Hawthorn is a primary cardiovascular trophorestorative and Shen stabilizer How Angelica restores warmth, circulation, and digestive fire in cold, deficient patterns How Ashwagandha builds steady, calm vitality rather than overstimulation How St. John's Wort protects and uplifts the psychoemotional "solar spirit," including its liver and nervous system connections   ———————————— CONNECT WITH SAJAH AND WHITNEY ———————————— To get free in depth mini-courses and videos, visit our blog at:  http://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com   Get daily inspiration and plant wisdom on our Facebook and Instagram channels: http://www.facebook.com/EvolutionaryHerbalism https://www.instagram.com/evolutionary_herbalism/   Be sure to subscribe to our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyP63opAmcpIAQg1M9ShNSQ   Get a free 5-week course when you buy a copy of the book, Evolutionary Herbalism: https://www.evolutionaryherbalism.com/evolutionary-herbalism-book/   Shop our herbal products:  https://naturasophiaspagyrics.com/   ———————————— ABOUT THE PLANT PATH ———————————— The Plant Path is a window into the world of herbal medicine.

From clinical to spiritual perspectives, we don't just focus on what herbs are "good for," but rather who they are as intelligent beings, and how we can work with them to heal us physically and consciously evolve.   ———————————— ABOUT SAJAH ———————————— Sajah Popham is the author of Evolutionary Herbalism and the founder of the School of Evolutionary Herbalism, where he trains herbalists in a holistic system of plant medicine that encompasses clinical Western herbalism, medical astrology, Ayurveda, and spagyric alchemy. His mission is to develop a comprehensive approach that balances the science and spirituality of plant medicine, focusing on using plants to heal and rejuvenate the body, clarify the mind, open the heart, and support the development of the soul. This is only achieved through understanding and working with the chemical, energetic, and spiritual properties of the plants. His teachings embody a heartfelt respect, honor and reverence for the vast intelligence of plants in a way that empowers us to look deeper into the nature of our medicines and ourselves. He lives on a homestead in the foothills of Mt. Baker Washington with his wife Whitney where he teaches, consults clients, and prepares spagyric herbal medicines.    ———————————— WANT TO FEATURE US ON YOUR PODCAST? ———————————— If you'd like to interview Sajah or Whitney to be on your podcast, click here to fill out an interview request form.

Brownlow winners, club legends, cult heroes, and sometimes the obscure one-gamer that still forms part of the story.   By the time we get to Number 1, we'll be on the eve of Round 1 — and we'll have walked through more than a century of Essendon history, one jumper at a time. Guernsey Number 10 stands as one of the most powerful symbols in Essendon history. We'll be back tomorrow for Day 9 and Guernsey Number 9. _______________________ Links: Don The Stat Website | The Official Home of Don The Stat  Don The Stat Patreon Don The Stat on Facebook  Don The Stat on Instagram  Follow Us on X / Twitter Jono / Ian

Have you ever wished you had thorns? Have you ever felt like you needed to protect your heart, your space, your peace of mind, or your time from a world that asks too much of you – or takes without asking? You're not alone. This is what thorn medicine can bring you.Thorns aren't weapons, they're defenses. They don't seek an animal or human out with the intent to cause harm, they hold space and define boundaries. Touch me here, says the rose, but not there. Admire my flowers, says the motherwort, but don't you dare clutch my seeds. We can learn from this.We can take the medicine of thorns into ourselves. We can do this literally, not only (oh, “only”!) metaphorically or symbolically. Most all thorny herbs, and particularly the thorns themselves, carry a key herbal action: astringency. This is an action which literally pulls things together, and holds things together.Each plant's thorn is different, serving its own purpose. Hawthorn's long, widely spaced thorns evolved to counter the hungers of the giant sloth, and they retain that shape long after the lumbering herbivore went extinct: they are the living memory of a predator past. Ocotillo's inexhaustible rows of spines render it no more easy a prey than the cactus who share its landscape. Thistle spikes out from every possible surface, asserting itself in all directions as its firework flowers reach for the sky. Which thorns are yours?Pull yourself together. Hold your boundaries. Make a safe space.Then, within that thorn-walled refuge, your flowers will unfold.Thorn medicine is only one form of support herbs can offer our emotions. Our Neurological & Emotional Health course is a user's guide to your nerves, your emotions, and the herbs who can lift you, hold you, brace you, and sustain you. We teach holistic herbal strategies for addressing both neurological & psychological health issues. It includes a lengthy discussion of herbal pain management strategies, too!Like all our offerings, this is a self-paced online video course, which comes with free access to twice-weekly live Q&A sessions, lifetime access to current & future course material, twice-weekly live Q&A sessions with us, open discussion threads integrated in each lesson, an active student community, study guides, quizzes & capstone assignments, and more!If you have a moment, it would help us a lot if you could subscribe, rate, & review our podcast wherever you listen. This helps others find us more easily. Thank you!!Our theme music is “Wings” by Nicolai Heidlas.Support the showYou can find all of our online herbalism courses at online.commonwealthherbs.com!
