Legends with Bevo

Bevo caught up recently on Legends with Bevo with larrikin media personality from Triple M Adelaide’s the Rush Hour and one of SA’s finest ever footballers Andrew ‘Jars’ Jarman.  

Jars talks about his illustrious career with North Adelaide and Norwood where he won two premierships and two Magarey Medals, his 110 games at the Adelaide Crows and his journey into playing league footy for the Roosters.  

In typical Jars fashion he also tells a couple of classic stories that will no doubt give you a laugh.

The Adelaide Giants are flying in the South West Division of the Australian Baseball League. Legends with Bevo thought it would be the perfect time to have a chat to one of the stars of the team.  

I was lucky enough to catch up with David Holmberg, a pitcher from the Giants who played in the big league for the Arizona Diamondbacks, Cincinnati Reds and Chicago White Sox.  

We chatted about the Giants' season so far, his funniest team mate, playing in the US big league and why the Giants are the hottest ticket in town.

The bushfires around Australia have been horrific but we have seen the true Aussie spirit come out in so many people not to mention people overseas showing incredible generosity as well.  

In a very special edition of Legends with Bevo, I caught up with the Commander of the SAMFS North, Rob Fraser to hear about the highs and lows of his 33 year career in the SA Metropolitan Fire Service and his experience of fighting the recent Cudlee Creek fires.  

Rob also gives his thoughts on the SA Country Fire Service and the amazing role they play in the community as well as stories of his footy career where he played 68 games for Central Districts Football Club and some of the famous footballers that he played with and against.

Bevo caught up on Legends with Bevo with two-time Glenelg Football Club (SANFL) premiership player Alan Stringer aka Strings, who played 170 games, 145 with the Bays and 25 with North Adelaide.  

In an emotional chat, Strings opens up about his mental health battles and his close relationship with another former SANFL legend, Scott Hodges and a new SANFL initiative called the 9th Team.  

We also chat about what it was like playing under the great Graham Cornes, funniest team mates, toughest opponents, what it was like playing footy with his two brothers at North Adelaide and his thoughts on the Bays breaking a 33 year premiership drought last year.

Bevo had the huge pleasure of chatting with the vice-captain of the Australian test cricket side and skipper of the Adelaide Strikers and Redbacks, Travis Head.  

We chatted about this year’s Ashes series and what it’s like facing Joffra Archer and Stuart Broad, the biggest influences on his career so far, making his test debut against Pakistan in October 2018 and that magical knock back on New Years Eve in 2015 when he single-handedly won the game for the Strikers against the Sydney Sixers.

Bevo caught up recently on Chewing the Fat with SA’s very own swimming champion Kyle Chalmers. Kyle is an Olympic Gold Medalist and a great bloke.

We talked about what it was like winning gold as an 18 year old in the 100m Freestyle at the Rio Olympics 2016, his biggest influence on his career so far, why he chose swimming over footy and his relationship with fellow Australian swimmer, Madi Wilson
