It's just Robbo and Davo in studio, sipping whisky, chatting about the Dees. Next week we have guests and muso's in.

Robbo and Davo review the NT. Chat candidly about the game against Freo, the reaction from supporters, they dive into some interesting stats and then focus on the Pies.

Robbo and Davo catch up with David Neitz, Travis Johnstone, and Jan Daniher join the pod for a quick chat before we got pelted with rain.

Robbo and Davo reflect on the season to date, the win against the cats, a round of Yeah Na's ... should all players get the premiership medal or just those that play on the day?

And Brett Wood, super talented musician, joins the boys to play some of his original tracks. If you do nothing else, listen to that!

Robbo and Davo reflect on the season, share their top 5 Yeah Na's, but we really only got into 3 because the conversation GOT DEEP FAST. Thanks to those that join us live each week, share our little podcast so we can afford to keep getting Whisky from the great folks at Nonesuch Distillery.

Why is Robbo sending photos of his .....

Robbo and Davo host Guy Bluey McKenna, AFL half of fame, West Coast champion, Former Gold Coast Coach. The guys chat about his coaching career, the challenges of managing a VERY young team and talent.

Former Melbourne Captain Brad Green joins the podcast to chat to Robbo and Davo about his position on the board, his days playing with Robbo at the Dees, coaching at Carlton, and his days post footy. Kicking off with 40 blocks picking up bags of ice because the ice machine broke, is just another one of those stories that only past players can recall and dig up. Would never happen today.

We touch on the tragic passing of his wife, but most importantly what it took to remain positive, and to father his children. Such a fantastic person, this conversation is far too short, and we highly recommend you tune in and share it with friends.

Russell Robertson and David Neitz host a special pre-game podcast episode live from Brewmanity. The boys reflect on the season so far, tell tales of seasons past, and forecast the future. A special night for the Dees, playing Port in Adelaide, and a special night for the podcast as we hit our first live from the pub. Typically unscripted, it's the only podcast with live fan engagement. Thanks to our only sponsor Nonesuch, the finest Tasmanian Whisky (and gin!).

Stephen Tingay joins Robbo and Dave to discuss his career, life before, during and after football. The importance of physical and mental wellbeing, and some classic stories.
