This week Brian and Harrison intro the show by covering all the major topics in their lives and within the AFL, including; the Geelong concussion situation, the AFL coach merry-go-round, the culture storm surrounding the WNBA, and plenty more. Their guest this week is one of Australia's most versatile sports commentators, Jack Heverin. Jack has built a career across just about every corner of sport, calling everything from AFL and cricket to the NBL, international basketball and major sporting events. Unlike many commentators who come through the playing ranks, Jack's journey started in community radio, producing and journalism, and he's worked his way up to become one of the most respected play-by-play voices in the country. The boys chat about Jack's journey from Langwarren on the Mornington Peninsula to the big stage, what it takes to make it in sports media, what makes a great commentator, the difference between radio and TV, which sports are hardest to call, and where sports broadcasting is heading next. Having spent plenty of time together on MMM, the pair have some great on-air chemistry, with Jack sharing what it's actually like working alongside BT, what happens when the microphones are off, and some of the more outrageous moments from the commentary box. Always the consummate professional, Jack is a team-player, is passionate about his line of work and is truly one of the good guys of Australian sports media. We thank Jack for his time.

Owen Foxwell's basketball journey has already been unlike almost anyone entering college basketball. After spending the last four years playing professionally in Australia's National Basketball League, one of the top pro leagues in the world, Foxwell steadily developed into a high-level guard while posting career-best numbers this past season. Originally committed to Louisiana State University, Foxwell ultimately reopened his recruitment before committing to University of Wisconsin, giving the Badgers one of the most unique and experienced additions in college basketball.Foxwell's move to the NCAA has sparked major conversation across the basketball world, particularly surrounding his eligibility. Because of his professional background in the NBL and the fact that he went through the NBA Draft process last year when he became draft eligible, many questioned whether he would still be able to play college basketball. His path has created broader discussions around international players, professional experience, and how eligibility rules continue evolving in today's game.Despite all the attention and uncertainty surrounding the transition, Foxwell is confident his professional experience will allow him to adapt to college basketball almost seamlessly. Having already competed against grown professionals for multiple years, he enters Wisconsin with a level of maturity, physicality, and understanding of the game that few incoming players possess. With high expectations surrounding both Foxwell and the Badgers, his transition from the NBL to the Big Ten will be one of the most intriguing storylines in college basketball next season.
