After a bit of time off searching for jobs, the BPB poddy is back and rolling, and this time Connor and Blair were joined late last year by former AFLW player and a star within the AFL/AFLW media landscape, Kate McCarthy! ⚡️🎙️
Kate’s footy journey is anything but ordinary—she didn’t start playing until she was 21, but that didn’t stop her from making it to the top level with the Brisbane Lions🦁, also playing for the Saints and Hawks. On top of that, she’s overcome some serious challenges, including having a pacemaker put in as a kid, proving that nothing could keep her off the field. Now, she’s making waves in the media world, breaking down the game for fans across the country. 🏉📺
It was great chatting about her growing up in Queensland, unique pathway into footy, her move into media, and, of course, her love for the mighty Lions and their recent flag. You won’t want to miss this one! A huge thanks to Kate for jumping on and chatting with us. 🤝

The boys are back for Episode 92 of the poddy and welcome a huge special guest, Tom O'Neill-Thorne. 🎙
Tom grew up in Darwin and was confined to his wheelchair from the age of two with a congenital condition. But he didn't let that define him or stop him from being like any other kid his age. He tried his hand at a range of different sports before finding a love for basketball. 🏀
He grew up with aspirations of being an olympian, and now reflects on his career three paralympic appearances later. He also has a plethora of achievements and records to his name. We chat about travelling the world, training with Aus team at 12 years of age, being one of the youngest paralympians and find out his dream dinner guest.
