Where Do We Begin?

151 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 1 year ago -

Unlike most Australians, Harper and Lachie aren't very athletically gifted. Fortunately, though, they're quite good at admiring those who are. And talking. They're quite good at that too.

 

That's why they talk to Australia's most fascinating sportspeople.

 

Sometimes they get deep. Sometimes they don't. But, as their listeners can (probably) confirm, they're always a blast to listen to.

 

Episodes every Monday until they interview the 25 millionth and final talented Australian athlete.
