The Howie Games

#TheHowieGames | Dan Ricciardo is one of Australia's most recognised athletes. Beginning on a go kart in Perth, his incredible journey has taken him to the top step of the Formula One podium from Montreal to Monaco. But dan's greatest achievement to date may be that fact he has stayed grounded, warm and approachable whilst living life in the crazy F1 bubble. This isn't a chat about contracts and rumours. It is dan on music, early adventures in Italy, doubts, proving yourself, behind the scenes of a life in F1, the perfect overtake and plenty more. Enjoy and stay safe crew. ------ Follow The Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/ Follow The Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames Find Howie on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MarkHoward03/ Follow Howie on Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/markhoward03/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

#TheHowieGames | Kurt Fearnley is a phenomenal athlete. A Paralympic legend who, when racing, was defined by his iron will and absolute refusal to give up. Ever.

#TheHowieGames | This week, a man who wrote himself into one of the most famous pages of Australian sporting history. Prior to November 16, 2005, John Aloisi was known as a wonderful footballer, who had succeeded in Europe and represented the Socceroos with great distinction. After that magical Sydney night, John Aloisi became forever known as the bloke that broke the drought and took Australia back to the world cup finals. Goosebumps galore in this one.

#TheHowieGames | Garrett McNamara surfs enormous waves. The biggest ever surfed. Huge mountains of water that defy belief. In some ways this episode covers the themes that this show revolves around. Hard work, commitment, preparation and truly doing what you really want to do with your life. But with the G Man, the messages are delivered in a very, very different manner. Garret has lived a life far from ordinary. This isn’t just a podcast about surfing, it’s the story of a kid who grew up in very unusual circumstances. This is a look at life lived on the wild side.

#TheHowieGames | Karrie Webb is viewed by many as Australia’s greatest ever golfer. With 7 Major victories and over 70 Tour wins, she is a dominant force. Not one to typically like talking about herself, in this episode Karrie explains how she went from a small North Queensland town to the top of the golfing world and the effect it had on her, both positive and negative. There are a few tears, lots of laughs and a fascinating look into the life of an athlete we don’t know a great deal about considering her standing in the game.

#TheHowieGames | This week, one of the most frequently requested guests we get from you good people out there, "Mr Cricket" himself, Mike Hussey. The underlining theme of this chat is what drove Mike to achieve such wonderful success. The answer may well surprise you, as Huss was driven, in many respects, by self-doubt. The way he used what many would see as a huge negative and somehow turned it into an even bigger positive, it's a pretty unique approach. It certainly worked.

#TheHowieGames | Grant Hackett is a triple Olympic gold medalist, a giant of the pool. In my view, he is also the most focused, determined, driven athlete this podcast has ever featured. Grant’s views on races that he didn’t win, which are brutal, highlight why he was so good. For those wanting to know what type of sacrifices are required to truly be the best, this is the episode for you. These days Grant is in a great place. A successful businessman, a doting dad, relaxed family man and all round good bloke.

#TheHowieGames | Fawad Ahmed is a wonderful man with a remarkable story. Born in Pakistan, he always dreamed of playing cricket for his country of birth. That story was never to be, with Fawad leaving his homeland fearing for his life. Arriving in Australia Fawad had his cricket dream… but precious little else. Seeking asylum, Fawad went through all manner of highs and lows, including a 10 month period where he went from playing cricket for Hoppers Crossing, a suburban team in Melbourne’s west, to playing for Australia!

#TheHowieGames | This week’s episode features Scott McLaughlin, the hottest thing in V8 supercars. In his 7th full time season in the category, he has hordes of devoted fans who love his aggressive nature on the track and approachable nature off it. This bloke is the real deal with trophies galore to prove it. But for all his wins, it’s actually a loss in 2017 that has truly shaped Scott’s career and the man himself. Scotty takes this podcast into areas where it’s only been once before, with Cate Campbell, in describing the desolation and embarrassment, Scott’s words, not mine, that an athlete feels when they lose something everyone expected them to win. He then takes the show into unchartered areas with a fascinating explanation of what he did to rebuild his psyche and turn himself back into a winner. It’s raw, captivating and motivating.

#TheHowieGames | This week’s episode is the perfect example of all the good stuff in life. Going out on a limb, having a crack and defying the odds. It features a fantastic fellow by the name of Phil Anderson. Phil is a trailblazer in Australian cycling. The first non-European to wear the yellow jersey in the Tour de France, victories in some of the biggest classics in the caper, a couple of Commonwealth Games gold medals and so much more. But the real joy in this episode for me is Phil’s ability to tell some incredible stories, about a time when sport wasn’t so professionally packaged, monitored and scientific. Phil’s was a wonderfully outrageous time of pre-race steaks, mid-race Coca Colas, no helmets, a lot of risk, long distance phone calls and fluoro! Real last man standing stuff.

In this episode, which was recorded in front of a live audience (a first for the Howie Games), Sam talks about life as a BMX star, his accident and how he has physically and mentally recovered from such a terrible event. Sam is joined in this episode by his wife Alise, also an Olympic Silver medallist.

He was part of 5, including being the flag bearer at the Sydney games Throw in a couple of NBL championships, an NBA crown (which he has differing views on), 7 NBL MVPs and he sits very comfortably in the Australian basketball hall of fame, Sport Australia hall of fame, and the FIBA hall of fame. But, equal to all that, Andrew Gaze is one of the nicest men in Australian sport. He always has time for everyone and as you are about to hear, has a wicked sense of humour.

#TheHowieGames | Joe and Renae Ingles are a remarkable couple for all sorts of reasons. There’s not much this episode doesn’t cover - Joe’s basketball journey from Adelaide, to Tel Aviv and then eventually Utah. From being without a job, to with Renae’s help and backing, becoming an NBA gun on an enormous contract. Plus we cover Renae’s netball career - from heartbreak to jubilation. But the most beautiful part of this story revolves around Joe and Renae’s twins, Jacob and Milla. In the last year, Jacob was diagnosed with autism. It’s through the telling of Jacob’s story that you will gain the greatest insight into who Renae and Joe really are. You will discover what this couple really represents, about their love for their family, about how autism can be tackled and about what Joe and Renae are doing to help others in a similar situation.
