Shooters!

It’s been a hectic month for Jack. Getting married, forcing Darren on the dance floor, missing his honeymoon to train with the Boomers, grinding in that camp and games trying to make the team and finally, the viral video of him and Will Magnay being told that they would be Olympians and have made the Australian Boomers squad.

It’s officially offseason time so that means the start of a new season for us. Season 3 tips off with firstly, a catchup revealing Jack’s offseason focuses and Darren dipping his toes into F45 and hiring a business coach, then we move into NBL free agency moves and dive into our thoughts about player movement and what we like (and don’t) about some key signings.

It’s been an absolute wild ride for Jack these last couple of weeks. From winning the Championship with his beloved JackJumpers to capping it off with a Grand Final MVP he basically spoke into existence, the “wow we might actually win this” moment, matching tattoos, the famous Scott Roth photo with an axe in hand… there’s a whole heap of great things to talk about here and we did just that.

What a wild week it was after that insane shot Jack made to give his JackJumpers a 2-1 advance in the Championship Series.As Jack puts his focus on game 4, Darren talks about the madness that ensued after the game winner, the photo's he got, the overwhelming attention that has been coming Jack's way and lastly, this one isn't done. Melbourne will come into Tasmania ready to roll.

With Tasmania down 0-1 in the championship series, we chat about how game 1 went in our eyes including Jack mentioning that sometimes in such intense games those 2 hours can turn into a big blur. Rivalries between family members , that ‘little island’ comment, getting away from basketball and Darren being told he is absolutely punching above his weight.

Jack's prepping for game 1 of the Championship Series but Darren couldn't get himself and jumped back on the mic to get stuck into it before game 1 happens. Melbourne, Tasmania, best of 5 for the 'chip - this one will be good.

Both Playoff series are heading to a deciding game 3 so what more could we want? Jack's on the road to Perth so Darren is taking you through another great in-person game in Tassie as well as dropping 3 elite winning players in the Melbourne Illawarra series.

It’s that time of the season we all love, Finals. Players, fans, all of us. It’s a pressure cooker out there and it’s glorious. But yes of course emotions are high and yes, Jack talks going “Draymond Green on them” about his run in with friend, Lachie Olbrich so don’t you worry about that. Tassie are rolling, Perth are waiting for them, let’s get stuck into it all.

Ahh what a time it is, Finals time. Darren is making the trip down to Tasmania to watch Jack and the JackJumpers go at it against the Hawks, there’s high vibes in the air as hosting a podcast together is a wholesome topic, plus Jack reveals way too much about his pre game routine.

We are both coming off the back of the NBL Awards Night and what better way to summarise it then to hop on a recording together. Jack from the players side, Darren from the NBL media side, it was fun for both parties and there was definitely lots to talk about so we did just that.
