An Anzac Day Special. Howie is joined by Fox Footy host, Sarah Jones, to remember her Pop, Jack Jones - who appeared on the podcast in 2016, for episode 6. It remains one of Howie's favourites. The late Jack Jones played in 7 Grand Finals for the Essendon Bombers, which included 3 Premierships. Before he stepped out for the Bombers, he went to war with the 24th Infantry Battalion in New Guinea and Bougainville. His memory and recall of these times was as breathtaking as it was incredible. He had no time to fear what was happening around him, because he was committed to looking after his mates first. And that about sums him up, you have to hear his story. Lest We Forget.

Warm. Happy. Thoughtful. And, an Aussie rock sensation. That is Mark Seymour. Even better, his ability to sing in front of thousands, is only rivalled by his ability to tell his story. From humble beginnings in a small country town called Beaufort, to insights into Bruce Springsteen and so much more. Go deep with this Aussie legend. The former front man of Hunters and Collectors is still making music, and he is still absolutely brilliant at it. The Boxer is Mark Seymour’s 11th solo studio album, and the fifth to be credited to Mark Seymour & The Undertow. It is out April 19. Pre-purchase the album, or buy tickets to see Mark Seymour and the Undertow live at www.markseymour.com.au *** Follow the Howie Games on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehowiegamespod/ Follow the Howie Games on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehowiegames See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
