The Sporting Probe with Roy & HG Catchup Podcast - Triple M Network - Roy Slaven and HG Nelson

Probesters, so many questions are answered in this week’s rip-snorting episode – here’s a taste to whet your appetite:

Why was Elton John looking like a stunned mullet at the Logies and how did Rampaging Roy Slaven and HG Nelson save him?

Now that the Gold Coast has stolen TV’s night of nights, is Queensland the cultural centre of Australia?

Why is driving a F1 race car like sex to Daniel Ricciardo (warning: parental guidance suggested.)

Why does Roy dislike the media focusing on the one tiny blemish on a beautifully cooked lasagna (warning: involves discussion of snot.)

What are the signs that Dermott Brereton might be a mad?

Plus find out how the major motion picture about Esme, of Rhode Island, USA, is developing and why Roy and HG think banning trainers dragging horses behind utes is nannyism gone mad (hint: What’s good for Rooting King is good for racing.)

What a week, Probesters, patriots, pilgrims and punters – a week where too much sport was barely enough with almost too many issues to thrash through but thrash Roy and HG did and successfully, too:

Issues include, How long did Roy Slaven’s testimonial dinner last and how much money did the night raise? (Okay, so $105 doesn’t sound like much but wait till you hear what that would buy back in the day.)

Now that Manny Pacquaio has postponed his rematch with Jeff “The Fighting Primary School Teacher” Horn who should step in to fill the bill (hint: think of a boxer who recently earned 300 million dollars.)

Speaking of Floyd Mayweather, could Winx beat him? (hint: Roy and HG have the rules for the match sorted.)

And speaking of horses, When and why was Roy tempted to punch Rooting King in the schnozz?

Saddle up, sports fans, for the ride of your life as The Sporting Probe podcast comes from the outside to win by a nose.

In a life-changing moment, podcast listener Esme emailed [email protected] and now her life is being turned in to a blockbuster Aussie feature film. How did this happen? You’ll be amazed by this inspirational tale.

Also inspiring is how Roy and HG propose plugging Australia’s Olympic funding gap (hint: pokies will be installed in all public transport.)

Even more inspiring is the true story of why a horse raced with two jockeys and how they argued for the whole race.

And if that isn’t enough, discover Roy and HG’s inspired plan to increase crowds at sporting events (hint: pay fans to turn up) and how smart fans will make big bucks (hint: bring 40 or more kids to the game.)

Feeling inspired? You will after listening to this episode of The Sporting Life (hint: it’s inspirational.)

Probesters, patriots and punters – will we learn from history or is Russian dictator Stalin’s Great Purge about to be repeated as the AFL attempts to rid football of muck-raking ringholes?

And, will this lead to Sam Newman ‘disappearing’ leaving despairing fans holding vigils in Melbourne’s Fed Square?

This week Rampaging Roy Slaven and HG Nelson fearlessly tackle this red-hot issue plus ask:

What makes a grub great and how can an educated crowd influence an umpire to award free kicks (hint: knowledge of where ref’s car is parked helps.)

Then there’s why underpants are the hidden issue men won’t talk about and the tragic topic that had HG blubbing (hint: dual passport holders in Australian sport.

There’s more – lots more – so dive in and enjoy. Cheers.

This week Rampaging Roy Slaven and HG Nelson called on all Australians to join a national conversation on many fronts, all of which may only be resolved by a postal vote.

For example, Who is the AFL’s Golden Grub of the Year and, Why are we losing a golden generation of grubs?

Then there’s, What has been influencing business decisions made by Australian CEOs? (Hint: substances the Devil uses to tempt Rugby League players.)

Or, Who should take charge to save Australian soccer becoming a farce (hint: think of the return of a disgraced FIFA administrator.)

And, Why is the cost of families attending sporting venues more expensive than electricity?

Plus you’ll discover the secret ingredient of all good, “almost authentic” Chinese spring rolls and why all cricketers will soon be wearing pads and gloves while fielding. Enjoy.

A note of caution – there is some devil talk in this week’s episode of The Sporting Probe but if you’re brave enough you will find Roy and HG unpacking the Manny “The Pacman’ Pacquiao v Jeff ‘The Fighting Primary School Teacher’ Horn bout to exclusively reveal the involvement of Immigration Minister Peter Dutton, Jeff’s secret 10 point plan to win and how to lose weight fast on the boxer’s diet.

Plus find out why the Wallabies have a new defense coach (clue: they’re not keen on attack) and how they get Matt the Cravat onto the Masterchef set these days (clue: it involves removing the roof.)

This week the ‘two boofheads on the burble’ begin by fine tuning questions for Australia’s new citizenship test, (Example: “What’s the difference between a boxhead, a pinhead and a dickhead?”) before moving on to reveal the three words that depress all Australians, (the first two words are, ‘Rugby,’ and, ‘Union.’)
