About this listen

A very reflective Dale Thomas sat down this week to catch up old times with Clokey and Jim while Vedran suns his budgy smuggler lines in QLD. Daisy's achievements are almost too long to list; he found his way from the paddocks of Drouin in rural Victoria, to owning the MCG as a universally loved character, and becoming a premiership player at Collingwood in 2010 before embarking on a successful career in media.

We asked Daisy if we could go past the surface a little in this episode and his response was instant and emphatic. He was honest, and at times vulnerable reflecting on his journey, touching on his upbringing, how lucky he's been to have had certain mentors along the way, and his approach to addressing both his own mental health, and leading the charge in encouraging others to speak up and seek help.

It was a bloody good yarn, we also made him call a Horseless Peruvian Jockey Race, so as usual, we went everywhere.

Enjoy the episode and be sure to leave a review!
