  • This is When We Grow Up, the podcast where we ask where we’ve been, to know where we’re going.

    With Nicho working to recover from injury and Marlee about to get stuck into work with the NRLW season starting, this will be the last episode of When We Grow Up for a little bit.

    Nicho talks about his recovery, and dealing with boredom, and Marlee fills us in on her recent overseas trip for the premiere of her documentary. We also both give our predictions for the upcoming NRLW season, and we get a cameo from one of the most talked about members of the WWGU family!

    With Marlee away in Paris premiering her documentary (!), Nicho is joined by guest host and Cronulla Sharks teammate, Kade Dykes.

    Kade talks about dealing with long term injuries so early in his NRL career, cops a grilling from Nicho, and plays a round of 'Perfect Partners' with his girlfriend Andie Robinson (Sharks NRLW player).

    This week we're joined by Nicho's teammate, and Cronulla Sharks cult hero and try scoring machine Tom Hazelton!

    Tom talks about his long and winding journey to the NRL, the unbelievable support he's received along the way from his family, and the moment he considered giving it all up to help them.

    Lots of wholesome stuff this ep. Marlee expresses her delight about the sold out crowds for this year's Womens Origin series, and Nicho talks about becoming a senior player and leader at the Sharks.

    Things turn sour when producer Lachie tries to cause arguments between Marlee and Nicho, but they come out unscathed (or do they??).

    Ahead of Beanie for Brain Cancer Round this week in the NRL, we are so lucky to be joined by the man that makes it happen every single year.

    A 2-time Premiership winner with the Newcastle Knights, Mark has become an even more inspirational figure with the work he has done off the field since retiring. After being diagnosed with Brain Cancer in 2013, he quickly established the Mark Hughes Foundation, with hopes of finding a cure for the disease.

    With Nicho preparing for State of Origin, we've invited great mate and professional Netballer Jamie-Lee Price into the studio. Jamie is also the daughter of Queensland Rugby League legend Steve Price, so of course we pit Marlee and Jamie head to head in Origin-themed trivia.

    Many new updates in today's episode. Nicho reveals he's now a gamer, and Marlee reveals she was a high school rap battle prodigy. Nicho's also enjoying learning how to cook, but not enjoying Brax's sloppy number 2s.

  • He inspired the nation when he decided to run across the country and today, Nedd Brockmann inspired hosts Marlee Silva and Nicho Hynes as he joined them on the couch for this very special episode of When We Grow Up.

    There’s so much wisdom that comes out every time Nedd opens his mouth, he exemplifies what we want to achieve and share through WWGU and we couldn’t be more grateful for Nedd’s time!

    We know you’ll love this chat as much as we did.

    And pre-order Nedd’s book ‘Showing Up’ which will be available in October

    We’re only a couple of weeks out from Father’s Day and hosts Nicho Hynes and Marlee Silva thought there wouldn’t be a more fitting time to sit down with Rocket Rod Silva - Marlee’s Dad.

    Rocket played 14 years in the NRL for the Roosters and Bulldogs. In this chat he shares about the journey to get there from housing commission in Western Sydney, overcoming racism and the roller coaster of being a professional athlete, particularly after losing his sister and father in a 12 week period at the height of his career.

    Today hosts Marlee Silva and Nicho Hynes have an emotional, inspiring and vital conversation with Sue-Ellan Vasiliou. This proud mum of 3 is a picture of strength. She, alongside her husband, set up Little Legs Foundation, a charity dedicated to funding much needed research into childhood brain cancer, after the loss of their beautiful daughter Alegra at just 6 years old.

    This one will definitely be a tough listen, it was tough for us to have the conversation, but Alegra's story deserves to be heard and there's so much hope in the research Little Legs has been able to fund so far. Check out the work Little Legs is doing via their Instagram or their website: https://www.llf.org.au/ @littlelegsfoundation

    Huge thank you to Sue-Ellan for sharing with us in her first ever podcast interview.
