Manage episode 509765543 series 3687426
In this episode we are joined by broadcaster and sports presenter Matt Baseley for a finals footy special recorded at The Pyrmont Point Hotel. With schooies in hand, Matt and Dave (or Lenno, if you haven't heard the first of many nicknames appear yet) dive into the biggest pub conversations right now:
- Pub nostalgia & novelty beers – BeezNeez, Carlton Lime, and the weird beers that defined our youth.
- Footy finals across codes – AFL at the MCG, NRL under lights vs arvo kickoffs, and whether the Wallabies are finally back. Matt shares what it’s like being their on-field host and why this team might just spark a new golden era.
- Pub Quiz – Can Matt handle David’s footy-themed trivia? Play along at home.
