177: Cam Smith (Part A)

He is a modern Australian icon – the mullet, the laid back attitude, the love of fishing, a froffy and coffee, the Queenslander spirit AND he just happens to be one of the world’s best golfers. The 2022 Open Champion is just a boy from Wantima Country Club who has made it big. And we are talking BIG, with his new deal to LIV Golf. Cam is real, open and honest and chats through it all.  From the first time he beat his Dad at his home course (Des was a handy golfer by the way) and the nerves he still feels on the first tee.  He is a humble superstar and we can’t thank him enough for giving up some of his time from his home in Florida.  Cam Smith deserves absolutely everything that comes his way.

She lifted her team to a Bronze Medal with a best on court performance. Lauren Jackson’s next chapter is as amazing as it gets. Anything is possible. If you want more of Lauren, her first appearance on the Howie Games was Episode 99.

Competitive as they come, but kind and caring as well. Mitchell Starc is not your typical fast bowler, and although he does steam in and give short treatment and delivers a fierce stare from time to time, off the ground he is one of the warmest professional athletes you could ever come across.  He is an interested, delightful and gentle human being... and a jokester as well.  Starcy is the personification of the old adage, good things come to good people. And after almost becoming the world's tallest wicketkeeper... he has gone on to achieve some amazing things for his country. Enjoy crew!

169: Mitchell Starc (Player Profile)

Crats joins Howie for a backwards Player Profile, but one thing is for sure, the Aussie paceman has come a very long way since his first job (sorry crew, you are going to have to listen to find out where he started). There is plenty packed into this one, including Mitchell Starc's Top 5 Hardest Batsmen to bowl to - which controversially includes a team mate.  The Australian cricket teams golf commissioner could end up on a professional golf tour when he is done. But, he has a few wickets to take for Australia yet.  Keep enjoying the journey, Starcy!

He shares his journey, his life lessons and the mindset needed to make him great. And of course, we had heaps of fun a long the way.

154: Lisa Curry (Part A)

"I was a pee-wee compared to them"  Lisa Curry is a very, very strong person. She’s had to be. When she was competing, when living her life under the public gaze, when running businesses, and tragically, when dealing with the loss of one of her children.  From literally being thrown in the deep end, to competing against the East Germans, Commonwealth Games domination, a behind-the-scenes look at some iconic Olympic Games, muesli bars, and family, this is in depth look at the life of a great Australian.  Lisa has just released a fascinating book, Lisa: A Memoir - 60 years of life, love & loss. It's well and truly worth a read.  Check it out here - https://www.harpercollins.com.au/9781460714454/lisa/  ❤️

153: Thanasi Kokkinakis (Part A)

"You think you have big balls now?"  Thanasi Kokkinakis is the type of athlete that I love. He plays to entertain, to have fun, and to give it his all. He nails that fine line between putting on a show, whilst still doing his utmost to win.  This is an episode that views life through the lens of a 26-year-old. From a behind-the-scenes look at life on the ATP Tour and his win with mate Nick Kyrgios at the Australian Open, to injury, dedication, and living life to the fullest. This is good gear! ❤️

151: Usman Khawaja (Part A)

"I'm trying to be grateful for everything"  Usman Khawaja is one of the coolest cats in Australian sport.  He is a beautiful man. Humble yet confident, caring yet strong, calm yet passionate.  As a parent, he is the type of role model I would like my kids to follow because Uzzie just gets it.  From his faith, to racism, to having his heart broken by selectors and returning to his native Pakistan (and dominating!), Usman has a great story to tell.  Usman is grateful for all the love he has in his life. We are grateful he came on for a chat. ❤️
