The Grandstanders in 'freestyle' form this week as Craig and Jane involve us in the planning of their show - on air!
Kicking us off, real-life snapshots that we can all relate to. Craig confesses that he regretfully told a fib this week. The conversation which started off innocently, slowly grew out of hand - do you sometimes get caught up in the moment and wish you can take your words back? Jane shares annecdotally on the positive power of friendship and the negative impact of destructive words.....
Continuing with the new segment Tips for a Healthier Home, we explore the possible hazzards lurking in the lounge and living room! Whilst the lounge may not strike us as one of the dirtier rooms in the house, it is more bacteria-filled than we think. Listen for tips and learn to say goodbye to the dangerous resistant bacterias which may be housing quietly on shared gadgets.
Special guest, Melbourne Vixen netball player, Bianca Chatfield joins us to talk the newer concept of the game: Fast Net. Find out what it is and how it stacks up as the netball version of Cricket's Twenty20! Also, insightful thoughts from Bianca on what she wish she knew - quality rather than quantity training.
Jane investigates another superfood - of the bean variety - that she discovered by chance! Fast facts on this superfood and how you can incorporate it in your family's diet to enhance nutritional intake and overall health. Finally, suggestions for healthy snacks....something you can have for those moments when it's not quite dinner time yet!

The Grandstanders Podcast - 5th November 2011
This weekend on the Grandstanders - a special treat as top athlete Scott Wintle joins us... he was a top athelete before, and still is... after becoming a paraplegic! Into waterskiing and basketball, Scott has broken world records and taken world titles - all without the use of his legs.
We ask Scott about the accident one night on his backpacking trip to Europe, and we find out how as a paraplegic he is actually able to waterski: there's a special piece of equipment that makes it all possible. Hear the details in this weekend's podcast!
Also this weekend: we continue our superfoods series. After learning about quinoa and chai seeds, this week we look at an ancient grain that is great for those who are gluten intolerant! And a wholefoods cook calls in with her perspective. Find out which foods you should be making part of your diet!
A new weekly series kicks off this week as we explore how to create a healthy home - a home free of germs. Have you ever... cleaned your showerhead? Thought not. Find out why you should - plus other things you may not have thought about cleaning around the house.
Someone from Jane's professional past has got in contact, wanting to get to know her a little more... personally. But the now happily married Jane doesn't know how to let him down nicely - and needs your help.
And... Jane was involved in a near road rage incident this week, which turned into a very embarrasing situation in a stranger's garden!
We talk Ian Thorpe, Kelly Slater, Kim Kardashian and Liz & Shane. And that about rounds out another packed Grandstanders show - listen or download the podcast here!
