    Artist Series 28: Mark Seymour (Part A)

    Artist Series 28: Mark Seymour (Part A)

    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

    208: Meg Lanning (Player Profile)

    Meg Lanning has more World Cup Trophies than Ricky Ponting. 

    She captained Australia to two ODI World Cups and five T20 International World Cups, and that is not even the best bit. 

    As an athlete, she is as competitive as they come. A cricketer, all class. As a person, she is a beauty. 

    But, can she handle the Howie Games Player Profile? Of course she can! 

    Just like watching her represent her country, her full episode is unmissable.

Bruce McAvaney

Hey Howie

I re-listened to your Bruce interview. He is the best broadcaster in the last 50 years.

The Howie asking questions of episode thirty something isn’t near as good as the latest episodes.

Can you do Brice again and dive in as deep into as you now do.

He’s the best there ever was, lets hear with Howie 2021 asking questions.

Background noise is distracting

Sounds like he’s cleaning the kitchen and making sandwiches. Hearing the wife and dog is odd. Super distracting from otherwise awesome content.

baffled battler ,

Best thing I’ve listened to since Clarke’s took two wickets in the last over at the school

I think it’s brilliant. Love the stories have listened to most twice. Just be careful with the jarrod Lyle episode. Found myself driving along the i80 in California balling my eyes out. Good stuff howie.
