It's Grandstanders installment number 14 million and 62 (if you believe Craig), on the biggest weekend in the sporting calendar. So of course, we talk the grand final (although this show went to air before Geelong's spectacular win!). Not only is it big here in Melbourne, but also around the country and even other parts of the world.
There was also another grand final last week - and Gary Ayres, coach of 2011 VFL premiers Port Melbourne, is our special guest this week. He's a former player too - with 5 premiership games and 2 Norm Smith medals under his belt - and joins us to share his thoughts and philosophies on coaching, learning, development and life in general. Plus whether he'd consider an AFL coaching role if a club came knocking...
Off the fast moving wheels of footy and the first week of the school holidays is over - much chagrin to many parents who often find themselves playing kids' entertainer. But Jane has found the first week very relaxing! Craig hasn't though: when a physiotherapist needed to play with his neck this week (either called a neck adjustment..... or neck cracking depending on your predisposition), Craig found it rather unpleasant. He's a self confessed 'neck-baby'. Or should that be neckcrackophobia?
What process does our processed orange juice go through before it gets to our shelves? You'll be suprised. And once you'll hear it... like Jane, you'll only want orange juice with visble pulp!
Jane's been on a retail therapy trip with mum... but with a difference: previously described as a "human pipe cleaner" by Craig, Jane is one of the only women in Australia who actually wants to fit into a bigger size. Craig carefully masters the art of digging himself out of a near miss with a you-should-never-say-that-to-a-woman comment, but Jane dishes it out too today: sharing a birthday with today's guest, Craig just isn't ageing as gracefully!
And just when you thought you couldn't possibly fit anything else into a 40-minute podcast, we also talk depression in dogs (and how to diagnose it), plus office workstations and whether those new-fad 'standing workstations' really are a good idea. And Masterchef winner Julie Goodwin has hit out at the fat police - Craig weighs in to the debate.

"You should never place any restrictions on how good you can or can't be - and never be satisfied, because there's always a slightly better way of doing it." - today's guest, Gary Ayres
