I thought I would let you know that I had to fly from London to Frankfurt and then back again for work and I was able to listen to the whole of the last podcast on the commute. There and back. Thanks for being my wingmen.

Are you concerned about the 2023 Bye Curse?

All teams this season coming off the Bye have lost the next week with the exception of the Saints who played the Swans who were also coming off the Bye.

I was going to post that i have to cut the questions off there because I have almost as many pages of notes as I did for last weeks show but how could I not include this one. Thanks for taking us with you on your commute.

 

I was glued to the Pod right to the end.  That has to be worth ️.  Thanks as always guys!

PS.  Maybe I was drowsy towards the end, because I’m sure I heard Binman select the Cats.  I was dreaming, wasn’t I?  😄😄

I actually was drowsy towards the end. Paying for the long one this morning.

Had no idea about the Demonland player of the year award process. Always just assumed for some reason that all our votes were totalled and the 6 to 1 was given based on the top 6 totals haha.

I'll be spending two hours on a train tomorrow, i'm almost annoyed its not a 3 hour ride so I could fit the pod all in this one trip.

1.5x speed is yr friend

i'm actually a 2x speed fiend if i've got headphones in...


I just finished the podcast at normal speed @Demonland it was great content - I didn’t have a solid block of time where I could listen to it in one sitting, so i broke it up into a few sittings. It was excellent coverage of the other contenders and their runs home.

I like to use the squiggle ladder predictor every few weeks, just to gauge how some teams might rise or fall with the uneven “fixture”.

Yeah I'm a separate chunk listener, I'll give 1.5 speed a go but I do hate the effect it has on your ears when you go back to normal speed.

Thank you.

I too break up any longer form podcasts that I listen to into chunks whilst taking my daily walks or communtes to and from work.

Try 1.25. It should save some time.

Can you imagine the time you'd need to spend editing if you had to cut it down? Usually need to allow twice the length of the recording at very least!

I have no editing skills and I'm too invested to know what to cut out. Time is also a factor and as we do the show on the Monday or sometimes the Tuesday it would delay the release and by then it's already old news. Perhaps if we did the show over the weekend but even then the time that that would take out of my weekend would be a factor.

The Pies win and the Mid Season Review were always going to be longer. Hopefully we can return to 1 and 1/2 hours in the next few weeks.

I would keep it exactly as is. Sometimes when you edit a show like this down you lose a lot of the energy and natural conversation which is what I listen to it for. You can also start obsessing on what to edit and get picky on every little um and ah, it's a real rabbit hole. You also stream it live so it's good to hear it as it was if you miss it. 

The show is like good talkback radio and there aren't any other MFC pods like it so I don't mind if the time is longer on some eps. There's plenty of short and punchy edited podcasts out there, this one has a real niche. The 3 of you also speak very well considering the show is done in one take.

I’m going to give this a try simply because you and Binman already talk quite quickly, so I might get a laugh from the sound of “Amphetamine Andy” and “Buzzing Binman”.

Lol. I've tried to slow down my "reading" of the match wrap up and the questions from listeners to account for this.

One of the podcasts I listen to is regularly  2 & 1/2 to 3 hours plus and I listen at 1.25 and sometimes 1.5 speed.

1.25 is listenable but if you have a fast talker 1.5 can be a bit hard. 2x speed is just crazy.

Come to a music festival with me and you might meet buzzing binman.

If you listen to our 2hr & 58m Mid-Season Review at 1.25x speed it will run for 2 hrs & 24 mins and save you 35 mins & 36secs.

If you listen at 1.5x speed it will run for 1 hr & 58 mins and save you 59 mins & 20 secs.

If you listen at 2x speed it will run for 1 hr & 29 mins and save you 1 hr & 29 mins. Obviously.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
