It’s officially offseason time so that means the start of a new season for us. Season 3 tips off with firstly, a catchup revealing Jack’s offseason focuses and Darren dipping his toes into F45 and hiring a business coach, then we move into NBL free agency moves and dive into our thoughts about player movement and what we like (and don’t) about some key signings.
-
It’s been an absolute wild ride for Jack these last couple of weeks. From winning the Championship with his beloved JackJumpers to capping it off with a Grand Final MVP he basically spoke into existence, the “wow we might actually win this” moment, matching tattoos, the famous Scott Roth photo with an axe in hand… there’s a whole heap of great things to talk about here and we did just that.

What a wild week it was after that insane shot Jack made to give his JackJumpers a 2-1 advance in the Championship Series.As Jack puts his focus on game 4, Darren talks about the madness that ensued after the game winner, the photo's he got, the overwhelming attention that has been coming Jack's way and lastly, this one isn't done. Melbourne will come into Tasmania ready to roll.

With Tasmania down 0-1 in the championship series, we chat about how game 1 went in our eyes including Jack mentioning that sometimes in such intense games those 2 hours can turn into a big blur. Rivalries between family members , that ‘little island’ comment, getting away from basketball and Darren being told he is absolutely punching above his weight.
-
Jack's prepping for game 1 of the Championship Series but Darren couldn't get himself and jumped back on the mic to get stuck into it before game 1 happens. Melbourne, Tasmania, best of 5 for the 'chip - this one will be good.

Both Playoff series are heading to a deciding game 3 so what more could we want? Jack's on the road to Perth so Darren is taking you through another great in-person game in Tassie as well as dropping 3 elite winning players in the Melbourne Illawarra series.

It’s that time of the season we all love, Finals. Players, fans, all of us. It’s a pressure cooker out there and it’s glorious. But yes of course emotions are high and yes, Jack talks going “Draymond Green on them” about his run in with friend, Lachie Olbrich so don’t you worry about that. Tassie are rolling, Perth are waiting for them, let’s get stuck into it all.

Ahh what a time it is, Finals time. Darren is making the trip down to Tasmania to watch Jack and the JackJumpers go at it against the Hawks, there’s high vibes in the air as hosting a podcast together is a wholesome topic, plus Jack reveals way too much about his pre game routine.
-
We are both coming off the back of the NBL Awards Night and what better way to summarise it then to hop on a recording together. Jack from the players side, Darren from the NBL media side, it was fun for both parties and there was definitely lots to talk about so we did just that.
-
How good were the JJ’s fans in Melbourne, though? Jack and especially Darren felt the love there. We get stuck into the Awards before MVP night next Monday, 2 legends of the game say goodbye and those Hawks are up and about in a big way.
-
Oh yes that wonderful flex from Jack over the weekend is discussed, Darren has a new breakfast discovery and we dive into the Play-In Tournament including Jack motivating himself this week by asking the question, “are we real or are we not?”.
-
If you can’t hype up your co-host then what’s the point? With Jack out of action due to a tooth infection Darren takes the opportunity to hype the great man up, specifically his consistency all season and his chances at a First or Second All-NBL team. Some Makuach Maluach love, why DJ Vasiljevic re-signed with Adelaide and a few more bits and bobs.
-
What’s up with Phoenix? Which player has the ‘sexiest’ game? It’s the business end of the season and with the ladder looking so tight we remind everyone that every point does indeed matter so now is not the time to be running down the clock. Let’s talk about it all.
-
It’s Darren, the microphone and no that’s it actually. An early game for the JackJumpers this round means that Jack is on the road but the show rolls on don’t worry. It’s an intimate one-on-one episode as Darren chops it up with himself about the NBL and WNBL including what the go with the Sydney Kings is, a personal favourite having his best game as a pro and who the WNBL championship favourites are right now.

It’s the time to set new goals, 2024 is here so that is what everyone typically goes to. But it’s a fun process to reflect on last year as well as look ahead to this year. We both run through goals for 2024 with the aim to hold each other accountable for them. Fitness, friendships, reading, app development, weddings - 2024 is going to be a big one.
-
It’s a big old Christmas mood in the online studio as we talk about everything that we’ve both been up to over the past few days including Jack’s Christmas Day game, lots of food, gaming, family time and what it’s actually like being an athlete around this time of year.
-
We told you this time of year was a busy one so this week Jack is flying solo. Darren’s somewhere else getting in the festive spirit but Jack is feeling festive himself, singing Christmas carols for you and talking about prepping for the JackJumpers Christmas Day game. That, realising how quickly time flies and that maybe your “gaming on the move” days are over and we (both) show some love for Corey ‘Homicide’ Williams and Drm. Merry Christmas all.
-
It’s beginning to look a lot like… NBL teams separating themselves from the pack. Yes it’s almost Christmas time but Jack talks about how now is the time that teams typically separate themselves from others and really put themselves in a good spot. The McCarron training incident, Goulding’s flurry against Brisbane and off court it’s a good time to simply appreciate family and those wholesome moments we get with them.
-
Jack celebrates more on an alley-oop then he did with a game winner, we throw a ton of love towards Alex Starling and the way he plays, how we’re filling up cups with nature walks and coffee catch-ups - this is episode 15!

A personalised wedding song, a new brand formed, Darren takes a leaf out of Jack’s writing book and spreads some love to the WNBL… it may have been a week off in the NBL but there’s lots happening regardless. Some sport, some life things, let’s stuck get into it yeah? Thanks for listening all.
