Dane Swan is talking footy and irrelevant life issues. Mainly the latter.
Host "Racetrack" Ralphy Horowitz is joined by Samantha Riches as Dane’s two regular friends talking irregular gibberish and generally just ripping the piss.

Tacos, Tackles & the Jack Newton Classic Benny Dixon drops in for a chat and quickly proves he’s as sharp off-field as he was on it—just maybe not in the kitchen (old tacos, anyone?). From school drop-offs and Wagon Wheels to draft-day dramas and hitchhiking to training, the Hawthorn cult hero gets candid on footy, fatherhood, and the media hustle. He lifts the lid on coaching influences—including some Clarko classics, some Mick Malthouse moments—and shares stories from the rowdy Jack Newton...
Internet Woes, Juddy Gigs & Footy From Bumf * Nowhere** Dane's off-grid and barely online, Ralph's dodging fashion critiques at functions, and Sam’s still defending her weather predictions (badly). From Ross Lyon sightings to footy and finance with Chris Judd, plus a raucous debate about strapping on hoodies over merch tees—this one’s all over the shop. The gang tackles Round 15 with questionable reception, conditional tips, and a classic Collingwood conspiracy from Dane. Oh, and there's a s...
How Do You Live Your Life? It’s a post-hens haze for Sam, and the question on everyone’s lips is: how does Dane Swan survive this lifestyle weekly? With tequila-fuelled chaos, hair-holding heroes, and karaoke regrets, the gang tackles everything from garters and donut towers to blokes lurking at Electric Lady. Meanwhile, Dane’s breaking footy streaks in Queensland and dodging awkward Hall of Fame invites. Plus, Nick Daicos gets bear-hugged and footy chat veers (barely) into actual analysis. Foll...
Math Science, War Machines & Shaky Lines It’s Round 14 and the crew is back with a vengeance—swapping multis, mocking lines, and doing their absolute best not to get cancelled (again). Dane’s backing the Blues, Sam’s recovering from a big weekend, and Ralph’s just trying to hold the ship steady through Bailey Smith theories, surprise stats, and some surprisingly sound betting logic. Plus, there’s weather forecasts, sauna strategies, and a cheeky plug for Oakley District’s night of nights. Fo...

Guest Friend – Luke Ball This week, Samantha, Dane and Ralph are joined by premiership Pie and former AFLPA president Luke Ball for a cracking episode filled with stories, insights, and a few polite digs. From his early days as a teenage standout at St Kilda, to navigating the politics of a high-profile trade to Collingwood, Bally opens up about footy life, leadership, and what it was like sharing the field (and the locker room) with greats like Robert Harvey, Nick Riewoldt, Scott Pendlebury, Da...

There Was a Sink, a Unicorn & a Whole Lotta Smut Dane’s dialling in from bed in Perth, Sam’s apologising (again) as the lads tiptoe the blurry line between filth and footy, and Ralph’s somehow keeping the ship semi-afloat. From waffle-stomping bathroom dilemmas and dragon book smut to charity gigs, future bets, and junior footy cameos—this one’s got everything you probably didn’t need… and then some. Oh, and there’s footy chat too. Sort of. For the Smut lovers 8& those who are curious: F...
Hungry Unicorns, Hairy Lines & Maths Science Mayhem Round 11 kicks off with Sam apologising for the lads dragging chaos from this week’s other wild episode into what’s meant to be the serious one. Dane’s banging on about unicorns, Ralph’s trying to talk totals, and Sam’s just trying and really struggling to hold the ship steady. There’s full-strength footy debates, suspect line calls, weather updates, and a rare appearance from Maths Science logic. Plus, Dane’s torn between North and Colling...
It’s Round 10 and the gang’s got the calculators out—sort of—as Sir Doug Nicholls Round meets Math Science. Ralph’s flying to Brisbane to witness a potential Dees disaster, Dane’s hot on North and overs, and Sam’s just trying to keep the facial references to a minimum. They’re tipping upsets, revisiting Port's pronunciation, and questioning if Freo’s ever heard of fast ball movement. Plus, the surprise "best bet" of the round might raise a few eyebrows. As always, If you are having a gamble over...
She Took Responsibility... Then Blamed the Umpires This week the crew is scattered across the country but united in chaos. Dane’s torching his multi bets with NHL legs, Ralph’s dodging cancel culture while copping it on Twitter, and Sam’s navigating toddler soccer politics and car-wash diplomacy on Mother’s Day. The crew also digs into Laura Kane’s curious case of full responsibility (with a side of blame), the AFL’s flopping epidemic, and what really deserves a punch in the face. Yes, there’s f...
The Only Thing I’d Threaten Is a Good Time This week, the lads cover everything from NFL quarterbacks and Twistie sandwiches to Ballarat hecklers and Brad Scott’s media flair. Dane unpacks the chaos around media doorstops, Ross Lyon’s surprise holiday backlash, and why sometimes it’s not about footy—it’s about flossing before breakfast. It's the usual unfiltered blend of headlines, hot takes, and hypotheticals you didn’t ask for but are glad you got. Follow & support us elsewhere Podcast : @...
Round 9: Maths Science for 2025 Dane’s tipping confidence is shaky, Ralphie’s backing underdogs, and Sam’s just trying to stay upright around horses. This week’s Maths Science covers everything from Freo’s time-warp game plan to Spud’s Game reflections and a last-minute Mother's Day warning. It’s form guides, footy grief, and a whole lot of "gamble responsibly"—all wrapped in the usual chaos. As always, If you are having a gamble over the weekend, please gamble responsibly. Follow & support ...
Guest, Friend... Michael Roberts Ahead of Spud’s Game, the boys catch up with AFL great and media mainstay Michael Roberts for a heartfelt and hilariously raw walk down memory lane. From the chaos of plugger doorstops to the wild days of live crosses from pubs, Robbo dishes out the gold. But it’s his moving tribute to his mate Danny Frawley—both the fearless leader and the loveable larrikin—that makes this one special. A reminder that behind every great character is a cause worth backing. Footy,...
Round 8: Maths, Science for 2025 Dane’s body made it to the studio—his mind, however, might still be courtside at the NBA. This week, the boys tackle Round 8 with their signature blend of footy logic, listener tangents, weather predictions, and just a hint of edibles. From Freo form woes to questionable scheduling calls, it’s Maths & Science mayhem at its finest. If you are having a gamble over the weekend, please gamble responsibly.

From That Day Forward, I Decided I’d Never Have Another Penis Inside Me Don’t let the title fool you—this one’s more full-strength footy banter than romantic revelation. Dane's back on deck, joined by the usual suspects, diving headfirst into coaching blow-ups, AFL brain fades, local footy bruises, and the ever-growing list of things that now get you suspended for just showing a bit of ticker. As usual, the episode is fuelled by your listener-submitted questions, keeping the lads off-track and o...
Guest, Friend... Gary Ayres With 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...

This 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 elsewhere Podcast...
This 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) ...

Well 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 tak...
A few pick-ems in this weeks draw and whilst Dane may not have known Penguins are birds, he certainly knows his footy. So tune in for a break down of the round ahead and if your'e new here, we like to guess the line for a bit of added fun!
