    Really interesting and honest chat with Australian Netball legend Caitlin Bassett. Due to serious knee injuries, the former Australian captain finds herself in an unwanted and unique position, currently without a super netball contract despite still being a member of the Australian squad. In this emotional chat we talk the possibility of retirement, the difficulties of realising her 18-year professional career could be over and the difficult trail of self discovery she is currently on. That plus all the highlights from her glittering career, her concerns for the future of Australian Netball and its development of young players, her love of animals and her hopes for the future!! That plus plenty more!

    S2 Episode 10 - Harry Garside
    Dec 1 2021
    A new era for the Refuse to Lose Podcast. Filming our first episode in the Kayo podcast studios. We couldn't have picked a better person to do it with. Harry Garside's story is incredible. He's Australia's first Olympic medallist in boxing for 33 years .... taking Bronze in Tokyo after actually missing Olympic selection on 5 previous occasions. But this man smashes just about every stereotype you have about boxers. He does ballet training, loves performing arts & high school musical, paints his nails is comfortable wearing dresses ... and he does it all to challenge how masculinity is viewed not only in combat sports but society as a whole. He is such a critical thinker and a man of outstanding moral integrity who pushes himself and other young people to achieve their best. A MUST LISTEN! Hope you all enjoy it!

    Tyrell Sloan's story is a wild one. His parents struggled with drug and and alcohol abuse, therefore he was raised by his grandmother from two months old, who was also on welfare. He is one of the nicest and most driven young men you'll ever meet! Wisdom beyond his 19 years. A great story for all to hear! We hope you enjoy!
