Thrilled to bits to have Ellie Cole as our Guest Sportish host for this week! We chat Brisbane Paralympics, why time slows down when you're exercising and Ellie's new kids book, Felix and his Fantastic Friends (it's truly excellent). 

You can find Ellie's book at Kmart, Target, Big W and most major book retailers. And you can follow her on Instagram at @elliecoleswim

Libby's away this week so we're bringing you a Smallish Sportish chat with the co-captain of the Women's Queensland Reds, Jemma Bemrose. Don't know much about rugby? Doesn't matter. What you might be interested to learn is about the amazing focus on the women's game by clubs like the Reds and the impact of the sport's biggest name, female player Ilonah Maher, on the funding and the fans of the game. Tune in!

A poor rower got THIS CLOSE to the Queensland coast before having to be rescued by the navy and we figure out how we're feeling about the audio surfaced by Rosie Malone last week about women's sport.

Now that you're all up to date on all things competitions, we want to take you back to December 2024 when a huge swell came through a triggered the Eddie AND possibly the biggest wave ever surfed. We cover off on everything at the Australian Sports Commission Media Awards and incredible photo plus we've branched out and watched some new documentaries - one was outstanding and the other was ditched within the first 15 minutes.

Is it ok that a drug suspension aligns perfectly with a gap in grand slams? We sort out who is driving for what team in F1 (and checking everyone has their licenses - we would have assumed this was crucial but apparently not?). AND Netflix has cancelled Unchained and we ask WHY?! (with a side of Lance Armstrong).
