The McLaren Team has lost their minds and we are wondering whether Max is actually the 3rd Papaya Driver. Paralympic swimming superstar Rowan Crothers joins us to talk about the upcoming social media ban PLUS Georgie revisits her softball spirital home and Libby is in her happy place after the 3rd week of the Sportish Swimming Club.

Sporties, while we might be signing off for the summer break there's still SO MANY great chats you can catch up with back in the feed AND you can keep track of us and sport and life over on our Instagram, @beingsportish.

Wishing all the Sporties the merriest of Christmases and a happy new year. We can't wait to share with you our new season of Sportish in 2026!

We don't know how to feel about the hot hot mess that is the Sky Sports Halo TikTok account - definitely giving "pink it and shrink it vibes" but is everyone also just a bit angry?

Plus we went for a 2km swim last Friday and have now we've decided that you guys should join us!

Kids in water polo are playing in multiple teams, multiple age groups and multiple locations in one weekend - is it too much? We don't much much about water polo, but we certainly know someone who does! This week we welcome to the Sportish studio the coach of the Australian Women's Water Polo Team (The Stingers) and Olympian, Bec Rippon.

Big thanks to Bec and to our Sporties for sending through questions - we love them! If you've got a kids sports issue you'd like us to discuss, email us at hello@sportish.com.au or message us via Instagram @beingsportish.

While we were on holidays Brisbane became the Australian epicentre of sport and Libby is suggesting that it all started with a swimming gold medal back 16 years ago? Stay with us. Meanwhile, it feels like McLaren's Papaya rules have got a little out of hand and we are very concerned that it's distracting to Oscar (a bit of ssshhh please for our Driver's Championship contender)! And after last week's Four Corners deep dive into gambling in Australia, Georgie discusses how betting language unexpectedly surfaced in her own home. Come take a listen!

A mystery set in a little coastal town surf club, We Saw What You Started is MEANT to be for teens but actually, Georgie found herself sneaking off from her family to read the next chapter. This story absolutely takes a look a life through the lens of sport. Come catch up with us and learn a bit about reading in the meantime...
