Shooters!

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!
