S2E13 - Australia's Out, Europe's In & Archie Is Already in Trouble

The Shepmates Show

Show Notes

Australia's World Cup dream is officially over... and we recorded this episode just minutes after the final whistle.

We unpack the Socceroos' heartbreaking exit, the Oscar-worthy flopping that drove us insane, and ask one question: is there a more pressure-filled moment in sport than taking a World Cup penalty?

Then things take a turn as Archie prepares to leave for Europe, accidentally lands himself in the international doghouse.

Plus Harry Kane reminds everyone why captains matter, Miles makes another outrageous claim about his set-shot kicking, and we somehow end up debating whether the 100m final is more intimidating than a penalty shootout. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

It's the Season 2 finale and it might be one of our best yet, so maybe we shouldn't have a break. Maybe we shouldn't.

Back to back guests, and this week we took the show to the MCG. Sunny day, birds chirping, trucks reversing, and the bloke who draws the Grand Final poster. Mark Knight joins us in the MCG gardens. Chief editorial cartoonist at the Herald Sun, a drawing every single day, and the man behind every premiership poster since 2009.

The boys are back and the bedroom has a new chair.. because this week we have our first ever in-house guest, and we thought we'd start small. Brian Taylor joins us in the studio. One of the great voices of Australian footy, two decades on Seven and Triple M, and a bloke who owes the boys an apology after the Legends Game. He delivers it. Then he peels back the curtain on the whole thing: how it took him ten years to find his voice, the one line from his boss that gave him permission to go big, why he can tell inside five minutes whether he's on, and the call he's proudest of.

The boys are back in the studio and Melbourne is humming.. finals are here, the NFL has rolled into town and the Sunday Footy Show has apparently started listening to the pod.
