Same nuffies. Slightly more experienced. Marginally more professional.

Jack and Bec are back for Season 2 of Amateur Hour, officially one season wiser and armed with just enough podcast experience to be dangerous. After surviving their debut year, the duo kick off 2026 with two big life updates (yes, actual announcements… not just new footy boots).

This episode sets the tone for what’s ahead, with a new game plan locked in: episodes dropping on the third Thursday of every month. Structured? Slightly. Still chaotic? Absolutely.

They also unveil some fresh segments for Season 2:

• Headline Stoppers – the biggest sporting yarns from the past month, dissected the Amateur Hour way.
• Third Person In – a cheeky nod to the NRL’s “Third Man In” rule. Each month, a special guest joins the show for their two minutes of fame, delivering an opinion-piece style memo on something they're passionate about in the world of AFL or NRL.
• Predictions – Jack and Bec jump headfirst into bold monthly calls. But this episode? It’s full crystal-ball territory for 2026 — and Bec, in particular, has come out swinging.
• Tell Me Something I Haven’t Thought About Lately – the nostalgia corner, where the pair dig up sporting moments you forgot you even knew.

The big question: can they dodge the dreaded second-season syndrome and keep their podcast form trending upward? Or will they spray it out on the full?

There’s only one way to find out. Tune in now.
