23. Guest Friend - Gary Ayres
01:01:46||Season 8, Ep. 23Guest, Friend... Gary AyresWith Swanny off on very important business (most likely crafting the perfect last-minute excuse from the porcelain throne), we brought in footy royalty to hold court—five-time premiership Hawk, former Geelong coach, and all-round legend Gary Ayres. In this epic chat, Ayresy dives deep into the locker room stories, coaching lessons, and footy wisdom only decades in the game can deliver. He pays heartfelt tribute to the late, great Allan Jeans, reflects on coaching the enigmatic Billy Brownless, and shares his unique perspective on playing alongside the freakish talent that was Gary Ablett Sr. Add in mentions of Hawks icons like Dunstall, Dipierdomenico, Langford, Mu, and Platten—and you’ve got an episode that truly earns its spot in the Swanny & Friends hall of fame.Follow & support us elsewherePodcast : @swannyandfriendsDane: @danes84Samantha @samantharichesRalphy: Year Round CarnivalThe Kennedy Community Center: https://www.hawthornfc.com.au/club/kennedycommunitycentre

42:55||Season 8, Ep. 21This week on Swanny & Friends, we had a very special guest lined up… or so we thought. While their seat remained suspiciously vacant, the show went on in full flight—non-heroin, of course. From oddly specific sock protocols and AFL supporter tier lists to Easter hunts and monster truck plans, it’s the usual mix of life, laughs, and a sprinkle of chaos. Turns out, sometimes, some of the best banter happens when it’s just Swanny and us, as his friends.Follow & support us elsewherePodcast : @swannyandfriendsDane: @danes84Samantha @samantharichesRalphy: Year Round Carnival20. Math Science meets Salmon Facials
42:59||Season 8, Ep. 20This week, the gang gathers 'round (online!) for Round 5 of the AFL—and things get weird quick. Sam’s rocking eye masks, Ralphy’s tipping like a psychic, and Dane’s torn between team loyalty and betting logic. From salmon sperm skincare to elevator placement theory and a definitive list of AFL “stars vs superstars” on the horizon—this one’s got it all. Plus, the crew makes their best (and possibly worst) calls for Gather Round in Adelaide.Happy listening and fluttering (responsibly, of course)Follow & support us elsewherePodcast : @swannyandfriendsDane: @danes84Samantha @samantharichesRalphy: Year Round CarnivalGamblers Helpline: 1800 858 85819.

52:48||Season 8, Ep. 17Well as Samantha returns to form after a few weeks of "sleep rehab", she even brought a segment to the table...about time she started doing something around here! Dane also asked the questions - "What is wrong with Melbourne?" and what is this "Sexy Siren Song Freo are singing" because well they are no good but some how fool us all into thinking other wise. We also covered just how much of a tight arse some of Dane's team mates, coaches and friends are and how some sponsors were just made to take advantage of!
