Itās 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.

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.

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.

Itās that time of the season we all love, Finals. Players, fans, all of us. Itās a pressure cooker out there and itās glorious.

Tassie are rolling, Perth are waiting for them, letās get stuck into it all.

Feb 27, 2024ā¢36 minā¢Season 2Ep. 26
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.
Feb 21, 2024ā¢36 minā¢Season 2Ep. 25
How good were the JJās fans in Melbourne, though? Jack and especially Darren felt the love there. We get stuck into the Awards before MVP night next Monday, 2 legends of the game say goodbye and those Hawks are up and about in a big way.

If you canāt hype up your co-host then whatās the point? With Jack out of action due to a tooth infection Darren takes the opportunity to hype the great man up, specifically his consistency all season and his chances at a First or Second All-NBL team. Some Makuach Maluach love, why DJ Vasiljevic re-signed with Adelaide and a few more bits and bobs.
Jan 31, 2024ā¢14 minā¢Season 2Ep. 22
Whatās up with Phoenix? Which player has the āsexiestā game? Itās the business end of the season and with the ladder looking so tight we remind everyone that every point does indeed matter so now is not the time to be running down the clock. Letās talk about it all.

Itās Darren, the microphone and no thatās it actually. An early game for the JackJumpers this round means that Jack is on the road but the show rolls on donāt worry. Itās an intimate one-on-one episode as Darren chops it up with himself about the NBL and WNBL including what the go with the Sydney Kings is, a personal favourite having his best game as a pro and who the WNBL championship favourites are right now.

Itās the time to set new goals, 2024 is here so that is what everyone typically goes to. But itās a fun process to reflect on last year as well as look ahead to this year. We both run through goals for 2024 with the aim to hold each other accountable for them. Fitness, friendships, reading, app development, weddings - 2024 is going to be a big one.

Darrenās somewhere else getting in the festive spirit but Jack is feeling festive himself, singing Christmas carols for you and talking about prepping for the JackJumpers Christmas Day game. That, realising how quickly time flies and that maybe your āgaming on the moveā days are over and we (both) show some love for Corey āHomicideā Williams and Drm. Merry Christmas all.

Itās beginning to look a lot like⦠NBL teams separating themselves from the pack. Yes itās almost Christmas time but Jack talks about how now is the time that teams typically separate themselves from others and really put themselves in a good spot. The McCarron training incident, Gouldingās flurry against Brisbane and off court itās a good time to simply appreciate family and those wholesome moments we get with them.
Dec 13, 2023ā¢37 minā¢Season 2Ep. 16
Jack celebrates more on an alley-oop then he did with a game winner, we throw a ton of love towards Alex Starling and the way he plays, how weāre filling up cups with nature walks and coffee catch-ups - this is episode 15!

After Jackās game winner in Cairns you know how we had to open up the episode. It was a big mood on and off the court and even Jack admits to watching it back lots of times and enjoying the moment from different perspectives. That, Darren plugging NBL products, some photographers shout outs and we look ahead to the week off in the NBL.
Nov 22, 2023ā¢39 minā¢Season 2Ep. 13
After the Illawarra Hawks let go of their head coach we talk holding coaches and players accountable, holding ourselves accountable as podcasters (maybe not AS important) and have you ever heard of a pro baller playing in their own game and then an hour later being a photographer on the sideline to another? Pretty cool stuff from Taylah Simmons in the WNBL.
Nov 15, 2023ā¢34 minā¢Season 2Ep. 12
One of the best games Darren has been to live in a wild Melbourne vs Perth finish, the Jackies get back in the win column and we've got a cheeky plug for Jack's website and weekly newsletter so get around that as well. Thanks for listening, as always.

Just when you think you have things worked out, opinions formed... something changes. Unexpected winning streaks, losing streaks, that's what makes it fun. Brisbane are hot, United are hotter, we're grateful for our 30's, weight coach, recovery - this is episode 10 of season 2.
Nov 01, 2023ā¢37 minā¢Season 2Ep. 10
Round 4 in the NBL season is done already? As per usual the season is flying but we are loving it. DJ Vasiljevic injected some new life into Adelaide, as did Jo Lual-Acuil Jr (even though Melbourne don't need it) did for United and so did big Alan 'Sauce' Williams to the Phoenix. All that, as well as Cayla George in the WNBA grabbing our attention.
