Hump Day with Swanny & Friends

Hump Day with Swanny & Friends

Dane Swan is talking footy and irrelevant life issues. Mainly the latter. Host "Racetrack" Ralphy Horowitz is joined by Samantha Riches as Dane’s two regular friends talking irregular gibberish and generally just ripping the piss.

Is it worth the lollipop?

Fresh off Grand Final week, Swanny, Samantha and Ralph check in before heading west for charity gigs, Kalgoorlie cups, and the usual chaos. There’s talk of kids learning the pain of losing early, the questionable economics of taking six-year-olds to the ‘G, and the genius parenting hack of “if they don’t know it exists, you don’t have to pay for it.” Add in a dose of Royal Melbourne Show nostalgia, post-mo...

We had a bit of time up our sleeve wondering if Strauchanie was going to turn up - He was a late out so we amused our selves as we always do with a bit of shed talk.

Dr Samantha made an appearance but mainly, it was footy chat. Footy gone, footy to come. Glorious Football.

This week has it all, the usual take the piss out of Sam, coupled with some footy chat, some listener questions and at the end, if you're still there through Ralphy's mind numbing contribution, some Maths Science. Dont say you weren't warned.

Triple M sports broadcaster Jess Webster jumps behind the mic this week to join Swanny & Friends – and brings a touch of professionalism we’re not used to. We chat about her journey from the Northern Territory to the heart of AFL media, her Queensland roots, and the fact her beloved Brisbane Lions are still alive in the finals. Jess opens up about press box pressures, grand final week mayhem, and how an AAMI Clanger moment made...

Maths Science: Finals Week 1

It’s Finals footy and the chaos is real – especially inside Dane Swan’s phone. This week, we unpack Swanny’s refusal to save numbers (yes, even yours), his treadmill top-speed claims that would make Usain Bolt blush, and how to decipher a contact list full of nicknames and guesswork. Plus, your classic Maths Science: best bets, blowout predictions, and Swanny refusing to wear a suit – again. We preview ...

The Return of the Librarian – Lord Heath Shaw

He’s back—and louder than ever. The one and only Heath Shaw returns to the studio for an unfiltered, no-notes catch-up with Samantha, Dane and Ralph. From calling out vanilla media takes to reminiscing about footy feuds, fly kicks, and flag wins, Lord Heath is in vintage form. There’s a sprinkling of Giants nostalgia, a few cheeky jabs at the Pies’ current list, and just enough locker ro...

It’s a midweek bonus ep and the crew dive into your listener questions! Swanny talks charity games, legends footy and where his faith sits with the Pies heading into finals, while Ralph ponders angry coaches and obscure nicknames. Sam cops a few fashion critiques (and fires back), and the team weigh in on draft age debates and the Rankine suspension. A bit of footy, a bit of nonsense – classic hump day Swanny & Friends.

Round 24.5 is here (yes, really) and the crew are back to make sense of it all. From the “bonus” midweek Gold Coast clash to finals spots on the line, we’ve got Carlton v Essendon, Collingwood v Melbourne, and the Dogs fighting for their September. Ralph’s battling the form guide, Tay’s already dreading a Gold Coast road trip, and Sam’s hanging on every Bulldogs stat. Footy, odds, weather checks, and a few laughs along the way – cl...

Bonus Episode because we stared recording and then our guest rocked up & we thought you'd like to hear from the Tsunami survivor - She's back and well you be the judge whether she's happy about it or not.

Maths Science today, and at this stage of the season with teams resting players sometimes in preparation for finals, other teams who are out of the running, coaches under pressure, and of course 9 teams trying to fit into 8 spots - there's plenty on the line.


We look at the lines, the margins, the totals, and Dane and Ralphy give their best bets.

Bit of random chat to kick off the show about Sams honeymoon, and surviving the tsunami, and Dane is excited* (*he may not be) about going to the Monster Trucks this weekend.


But after that we get to the big news of the week, the departure of Simon Goodwin from the Demons. Dane wants to know if Ralphy had any inside word it was coming. Who could the new coach be, we kick around the options. Dane refuses to rule out applying for ...

This week, Jobe Watson is back, Samantha is not. Rude frankly.


Dane, Jobe and Ralphy discuss when players start booking the end of season trips, the Bombers are already onto it, and Dane reveals that towards the end of the season there are more players doing weights to get the body 'beach ready'.


Jobe reveals the very well known footy name who wore a Peppa Pig outfit to his kids birthday party recently.

Aaaannnd, we're back. Well two of the gang of three anyway. Today is Maths Science where we try to rinse the bookies and pick some solid bets, or in Dane's case, pump up the legs of his multi that he need to perform.

Is it for the love of the game?

This week, Dane, Samantha and Ralph tackle the age-old question: are the players still driven by pure love of the game, or has it all become about cash, contracts, and side hustles? (We know Dane's reply) Between Ross Lyon’s mysterious holiday timing, Clarko’s ongoing soap opera, and the growing trend of players citing mental health breaks "to avoid scrutiny", there’s no shortage of hot takes. We also...
