He has represented Australia on the world stage as a player and as coach. There are World Cups, Olympics, Asian Cups. And there are even Maradona and Messi stories. 

But above all, there is passion and pride for his country. 

Graham Arnold joins Howie to chat about his wide ranging journey in world football. And the stories, have to be heard to be believed. 

After finishing the main podcast, Graham was also kind enough to sit back down with Howie to explain why he stepped away from the main Socceroos coaching role. 

There is so much to admire and love about Graham Arnold. We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed getting to know this great human being.
