The Dad & Son Podcast is a sports and banter podcast hosted by Jack Devlin and his dad Simon, where generations collide over sport, life, and whatever else comes up in the studio.
Each episode dives into the biggest stories from the NBL, NBA, AFL and NFL, with Jack bringing the fresh takes and fearless opinions, while Dad adds a little experience (and occasionally tries to keep the show on track).
But it's not just about sport. The show also explores life in general — from school, family and growing up, to whatever random topics happen to pop up during a conversation between a dad and his son.
Recorded in Little Team Dev Studios in Mount Claremont, the podcast started as a fun idea during lockdown when Jack was just 7 years old, and has grown into a unique father-son show filled with sports debates, bold predictions, special guests, and plenty of classic Dad & Son banter.
Sometimes Jack leads the conversation.
Sometimes Dad thinks he's in charge.
Either way, it's proof that the best conversations often happen between Dad and Son.

Triple M's Coasty is here - The $1,100 Cricket Ball, The Bears Are Coming, Jack can Actually Run and Jump, Milo in a Wine a Glass, What's a production Meeting
Triple M's Coasty is here - The $1,100 Cricket Ball Triple M's COASTY IS HERE… AND JACK'S ALREADY $1,100 IN THE HOLE. Triple M's Coasty joins Jack and Simon in the studio and quickly discovers just how professional the Dad & Son Podcast really is. Jack's brand-new school MacBook has had an unfortunate encounter with a cricket ball, leaving Simon with an $1,100 repair bill and Jack with a story that somehow involves a barking dog, elite hand-eye coordination and absolutely no responsibility whatsoever. 🏉 FINALS FEVER! Freo are gearing up for a massive qualifying final, five Dockers are All-Australians and Simon is daring to believe. Jack's worried about Brisbane, Coasty brings the odds and nobody wants to jinx anything. 🏉 THE BEARS ARE COMING. Coasty attempts to educate the boys on the NRL and Perth's new team — before Simon decides to call his "good mate" from rugby league live on air. It doesn't go well. 🏀 WILDCATS ARE LOADING. The new NBL season is around the corner, the boys talk preseason form and Coasty discovers there's a 16-year-old basketball prospect standing around 7'6". His advice? "What's to develop? You're tall enough. Get him out there." 🏃♂️ JACK CAN ACTUALLY RUN. He clocks the fastest Year 7 100m time at school and then casually ties for first in the high jump despite never having done it before. Simon is significantly more excited about this than Jack. Plus: Coasty's Getting to Know You, Milo in a wine glass, drop bears, petrol fumes, Die Hard vs Home Alone, Bryce Cotton's jersey potentially going up in flames and a proposed new Advent hoodie: "I Can't Catch a Cricket Ball." And finally, on the Dad & Son Podcast, Jack is asked what's special about this Sunday… He has no idea. Happy Father's Day, Simon. 😂 🎙️ The Dad & Son Podcast — Dream it. Believe it. Achieve it.

The Glow Up DaSP 2.0 Teenage Dirtbag, Flagmantle, LeBron, Jack Gets Detention and He Has a New Clothing Brand
THE BOYS ARE BACK. And apparently, DaSP has had a glow up. 🔥 Six years after Jack and Simon first fired up the microphones, DaSP 2.0 has officially arrived — new look, new sponsors, new producer… same absolute nonsense. Jack's now 13, launching his own clothing brand Advent, and somehow still being questioned by Dad about his maths. Simon's discovered golf and would desperately like everyone to care. Nobody does. Then it's time for sport — and Freo are MINOR PREMIERS. 💜⚓ Simon explains why this Fremantle side feels different, why Andrew Brayshaw might just be "Patient Zero" for the club's culture, and why 100 x 100-metre sprints on Christmas Day is completely unhinged behaviour. Across the Pacific, the 76ers have apparently gone completely nuclear. Jaylen Brown. LeBron. Philly. Simon celebrates Paul George's departure with all the restraint you'd expect. The Buffalo Bills have a new coach, the Wildcats are bringing back Angus Brandt, and Simon is already preparing the sledges for Trevor Gleeson's return. Meanwhile, DaSP welcomes its newest team member: Alfred — the AI house butler who's somehow gone from helping with homework to producing the podcast. Then things take a turn. Jack's school life is going nicely. Basketball program. New mates. Year 7. Oh… and Dad got an email. A basketball incident. A shove. A ripped shirt. Detention. Jack would like to appeal. Simon has reviewed the footage that doesn't exist and determined the contact was HIGH. INTENTIONAL. STRAIGHT TO THE TRIBUNAL. Case closed. 😂 Also this week: * 🍔 Jack gives McDonald's some suspiciously free advertising * 🥩 Black Iron BBQ gets the official DaSP chef's kiss * 👕 Advent gets its DaSP debut * ⛳ Simon attempts to turn DaSP into a golf podcast * 🏆 Freo start dreaming about their first flag * 🏀 Philly suddenly becomes a January holiday destination * 🇺🇸 Jack discovers America's portion sizes and immediately wants a Big Gulp * 🏈 The Bills enter the Joe Brady era * 🐱 The Wildcats welcome back Angus Brandt * 🤖 Alfred joins Team DaSP * 🚨 Carlton provides genuine breaking news mid-podcast * 🏫 Jack fronts the DaSP Tribunal * 📣 And approximately half of Jack's school gets a shout-out
