Shaquille O'Neal is the biggest guest we have ever sat down with. Both physically enormous as well as a figurative phenomenon. Shaq is simply a world wide megastar. The 216cm former basketballer recently returned to Australia for the first time since 1993 and took the country by storm. And rightfully so. He is a four-time NBA Champion, an Olympic Gold medallist, an NBA Hall of Famer, a business man, a movie star, a DJ and a family man and was kind enough to step through it all and more during two sit down interviews. He shares his journey, his life lessons and the mindset needed to make him great. And of course, we had heaps of fun a long the way. ------------ Follow the Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/ Follow the Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

James Hird is back telling stories, laughing and loving footy and family. The former number 5 for the Bombers was kind enough to take a couple of hours out of his life to talk about his love for Essendon, what went wrong as coach, what he learnt, his future aspirations, business and family. One thing is for sure, the most decorated footballer in the history of the Essendon Football Club has needed more courage off the field to get back to normality than he required on the field. He is open and honest and inspiring.

He was born in Texas, but landed in Melbourne and never looked back. He is one of the most remarkable stories the AFL has ever seen. The American Pie has wowed the jam packed MCG on the biggest of occasions, and he is grateful for every second of it.

Aussie. That’s right, the Big Tex is an Australian Citizen. He is even making waves on his new Podcast, the Mason Cox Show. Tune in, as we go around the world with Mason Cox.

Jamie Kah was absolutely flying. Heading into the 2021 Spring Racing Carnival, the South Australian was the world’s top-ranked female jockey and had recently become the first jockey to ride 100 winners in a Melbourne Metropolitan racing season. Then it all came to a grinding halt. This is the first time Jamie has spoken publicly since she was very publicly suspended from racing because of a covid breach during Victoria’s lockdown in September 2021. We all make mistakes and Jamie owns hers. But as you will hear, she is so much more than a tabloid headline. One of the most dedicated athletes in the country, this is the story of a woman who has turned a lifelong love of horses into an immensely successful career.
