| 10/18/26 |  Brendon Goddard: Saints heartbreak, Essendon turmoil & Warnie’s golf bets | Brendon Goddard was the No.1 pick set to join Carlton, until the Blues lost their draft picks and he landed at St Kilda. He became one of the Saints’ most important players, played in the crushing 2009 and 2010 Grand Finals losses, then became the first AFL free agent when he left for Essendon... just months before the infamous supplements saga began. Now a coach back at St Kilda, Goddard joins Dyl & Friends to talk about his intensity, expectations and demanding standards, and how he learned to give feedback. He also covers the phone call that told him he wouldn’t be a Blue, the driving range call that sealed his move to Essendon, turning up to the Saints’ footy trip as a Bomber, and the heartbreak of two Grand Finals. In the final stretch, he shares his golf stories with Shane Warne: the wig, the wads of cash and the Cathedral Cup tribute.

| 10/11/26 |  Travis Cloke: the pressure that broke him & his AFL career at just 30 | Travis Cloke won a premiership with Collingwood and became one of the AFL's most recognisable key forwards. But after controversially leaving the Magpies for the Western Bulldogs in 2016, his career came to an end out of nowhere… at just age 30. Big Trav joins Dyl to talk about the pressure and anxiety that shaped his career, why he struggled to enjoy his success at the biggest club in the land, and how the expectations he placed on himself ultimately took their toll. Trav opens up about losing his sense of identity outside the game, the circumstances surrounding the end of his career, and what he wishes he could tell his younger self. They talk his father-son connection to Collingwood, the five-year deal Richmond offered him, and the sliding-doors decision that saw him choose the Magpies to play alongside his brothers. Trav reflects on playing under Mick Malthouse, the challenges of his final years at Collingwood, and the moment he was dropped for Mason Cox after helping develop him as a player. Now working in player development, Travis talks about the importance of honest conversations, helping young athletes navigate the mental side of football, and why he wants the next generation to enjoy the journey more than he did.

| 10/4/26 |  Aussie rising star Claudia Hollingsworth on THAT race with Jess Hull & why she's changing events for LA 2028 | Claudia Hollingsworth went to the Olympics at just 19. The Australian middle-distance runner joins Dyl to talk about her first Olympic experience, the mental challenges she wasn't prepared for, and why she's now making the difficult switch from the 800m to the 1500m as she builds towards LA 2028. Claudia opens up about the brutal competition within Australian athletics, the controversy surrounding that race with Jess Hull, being disqualified and then reinstated, and eventually sharing a Commonwealth Games podium with Hull and Abbey Caldwell. They also get into the realities of being a professional individual athlete, from sponsorship and money to building a personal brand, as well as Olympic Village life, meeting Simone Biles, training around Europe and why Claudia believes “pressure is a privilege”.

Fresh off the release of ABC's Lies In Lismore and the success of Conspiracy Cabal, Richard joins Dyl to explain what happens when criminal investigations go wrong, why some murders remain unsolved for decades, and whether Australia's most notorious serial killer, Ivan Milat, may have been responsible for more deaths than the seven backpacker murders he was convicted of. The conversation then takes a turn into some of the world's most enduring conspiracy theories and mysteries, including the JFK assassination, UFOs and UAPs, the moon landing, COVID vaccine conspiracies, ancient civilisations, the pyramids and whether we're really alone in the universe.

| 9/20/26 |  How a Melbourne kid survived 10 years in the NFL | Adam Gotsis | Adam Gotsis spent a decade in the NFL... one of the toughest achievements in professional sport. Drafted by the Denver Broncos in 2016, the Melbourne product built a 10-year career across the Broncos, Jaguars, Colts and Buccaneers, surviving the constant cycle of training camps, roster cuts, injuries and one-week contracts that end most careers long before they begin. Adam joins Dyl to explain what life in the NFL is really like: the pressure of fighting for a roster spot, how contracts and signing bonuses actually work, the reality of being cut, the teammates and quarterbacks who stood out, and the mental health challenges that came with living in one of the world's most ruthless sporting environments. A rare insight into the NFL from an Australian who lived it for 10 seasons.

| 9/13/26 |  Brett Ratten: from flag favourites to sacked in just 19 weeks + Judd, St Kilda & remembering Cooper | Brett Ratten is one of the most respected figures in Australian football. From playing over 250 games for Carlton to coaching the Blues, St Kilda and serving as a key architect behind Hawthorn's dynasty, Ratts has seen every side of the AFL. In this episode, Brett opens up about one of the most talked-about moments of his career: Carlton's decision to sack him in 2012 after starting the season as flag favourites. He takes us inside the boardroom pressure, the injuries that derailed the season, the conversation that ended his tenure, and the lessons he learned from one of the toughest periods of his life. We also dive into his relationship with Chris Judd, coaching Dylan Buckley, the Carlton teams of the late 2000s and early 2010s, the talent of players like Chris Yarran, Bryce Gibbs and Matthew Kreuzer, his time at Hawthorn alongside Alastair Clarkson, and what makes great leaders, coaches and teams.

| 7/5/26 |  Meet my psychiatrist: what he's taught me about anxiety, identity & healthy living | Dr Ranjit Menon | This week I'm joined by my psychiatrist, Dr Ranjit Menon. We've been working together for the past three years, so I wanted to sit down and ask him everything he's taught me about anxiety, identity and what it actually means to live a healthy life. We start with my own mental health journey before diving into the questions I think so many of us have. Why do we experience anxiety? Should we identify with a diagnosis? Why are more people struggling? And what are the simple habits that make the biggest difference to our health and wellbeing? Whether you've been through therapy yourself or you're just trying to better understand your own mind, I think there's something in this conversation for everyone. We talk: What my psychiatrist has learned about me over the past three years Why anxiety isn't something we should try to eliminate The difference between anxiety and an anxiety disorder Why your diagnosis should never become your identity How elite sport approaches mental health and high performance The four pillars of a healthy life Why doing hard things builds resilience The difference between being selfish and being self-centred Why reading is one of the most underrated tools for improving your mind How small daily habits help protect your mental health over time The one thing Ranjit believes every person should prioritise for better health If this episode resonates with you, share it with someone who might need to hear it.
