The Howie Games presents a special new series.

Pendlebury Diaries is built from personal, real time voice notes exchanged between Scott Pendlebury and Mark Howard, tracking the weeks and months leading into his record-breaking AFL game. Early mornings, training, recovery, mindset, family, a fourth Anzac Day Medal as it unfolds and even Collingwood boardroom insights - the stuff that usually stays behind closed doors.

Episode 1 goes inside the mind of Scott Pendlebury as he chases history. From the heartbreak of tearing his calf in the prelim and the “worst tasting beer in history”, to being back in the home gym at 6.30am the Monday after the Lions won the Premiership and already preparing for 2026, Pendles opens up like never before.

There’s honest insight into contract talks, the grind of pre-season, injury setbacks, watching helplessly from home, and the mindset that has driven one of the game’s greatest careers. Raw, reflective and relentlessly driven, this is the setup to the record chase.

It's all building toward one moment: Game 433.

He’s equal parts old-school football romantic and modern-day citizen of the world. So, before the full story. Enjoy the quirks. The interests. The curveballs. The stuff that makes Jackson Irvine, Jackson Irvine.

Settle in… this is Jackson Irvine.

A different kind of Howie Games episode.

An honest, straight-up travel diary through South Africa and the wild landscapes of Namibia, packed with stories, lessons, travel hacks, and a few hard-earned mistakes along the way. From planning the trip to navigating a place of real consequence, it’s all laid bare.

How to fly, where to stay, what to see... with some VERY special guests, this one’s as personal as it gets... and at its core, it’s about inspiring you to get out there and try something a little different.

Let me know what you think!

Peace and love, and happy and safe travels!
