 Episode 6 - DEAN BROGAN show notes In this episode we chat to the only man to have won both an NBL Championship (with the Adelaide 36ers) and an AFL Premiership (with the Port Adelaide Power).  Dean is a great guest who just says it how it was, owning up to difficult times in his Pro basketball career and what transpired for him to become a champion AFL ruckman.  Following a very successful sporting career Deans career took a turn in a completely different direction that lead him to finding a passion for leading teams off the sporting field (in this case the corporate world). Dean shares with us his theory on making a successful and fulfilling transition out of the professional sporting realm, whilst still remaining connected.

 Episode 5 - RUSSELL 'Rusty' HINDER show notes Well folks, you're definitely getting a look at the NBL from a very different perspective in this episode. Rusty has a unique way of viewing the world, and is very honest and candid about how he felt at varying points in his career.  Rusty found the transition out of basketball difficult - as many do - but has re discovered purpose, gratitude and happiness with his family once again.  Being a great story teller Rusty has referenced many games and situations here some of which have video footage online. I have linked below what I have been able to find of the topics brought up below: https://youtu.be/FG1gjCgXUnk https://youtu.be/tYlPbwPK6_g Russell Hinder and Clint Reed have a scuffle - YouTube   Make sure to subscribe to our Youtube Channel in support of future episodes.

Episode 4 - STEVE CARFINO show notes Steve was arguably the voice of a generation of NBL Hoops fans covering nearly 30 years of action between his playing career with the Hobart Devils, and the Sydney Kings, and his TV Host/Commentary with Channel 10 and Fox Sports. In this episode you get a lot more that you would expect. Steve is generously vulnerable in his recollection of growing up in a high achieving household, and the emotions that drove him his entire career. Please enjoy this episode and don't forget to like, subscribe and share. Cheers Andrew.
