Dyl & Friends
Dylan invites interesting and notable guests to share their stories in a humorous and lighthearted chat, with plenty of banter mixed in as well. It’s like a hug from an old mate, it’s incredibly warm, positive, and comforting. He touches on career and life highs and lows, taps into mindset and psyche and ultimately uncovers what makes his guests happy and successful. You don’t need to know the guests before listening, Dyl will have you thinking they’re your best mates when the 60 or so minutes is up. *Description provided by Dylan Buckley's mum.

Billy Gowers: AFL, VFL, Barber, Kabaddi, NFL Punter!? | #281
This week on Dyl & Friends we have my good friend Billy Gowers.
From school footy to being drafted by Carlton, leading the Western Bulldogs in goals, getting delisted (twice), then flipping the script entirely — Billy’s story is anything but typical.
Billy has signed to play college football for the University of Hawaii, chasing a dream to play in the NFL. We chat about how the opportunity came about, the mindset it’s taken to jump into something completely new, and the excitement (and chaos) of starting fresh on the other side of the world.

Bobby Hill: Resilience, A Norm Smith & Finding Home at the Pies | #280
Yessss fam welcome back to Dyl & Friends.
Today I'm joined by one of the most exciting players in the game - Collingwood premiership star and Norm Smith medallist, Bobby Hill.
From growing up in Northam, WA, to making the big move east with the Giants, Bobby’s journey hasn’t been all smooth sailing. We dive into his early days, the challenges he faced - including his courageous battle with testicular cancer - and how he found a fresh start and a flag at the Pies.
Bobby’s story is one of resilience, growth, and pure talent. We chat about everything from Grand Final week memories to life off the field.
An absolute legend with a ripping story - hope you enjoy this one as much as I did ily xx

I had the absolute privilege of sitting down with the legendary Trevor Hendy – not just one of Australia’s greatest Ironmen, but a bloke with a truly powerful perspective on life, mindset, and personal growth.Today, we get into it all. We go a little bit weird and dive deep on spirituality, how that plays into performance, and how Trev has shifted his mindset over the years – not just to win races, but to find true purpose in life.We also touched on health tips and tricks Trev swears by, routines and rituals that keep him grounded, and he even shared his famous whale story; an absolutely wild moment that speaks to something bigger going on out there.This episode is for anyone looking to tap into something deeper, improve upon their mindset, and understand what it really means to be your best – not just in sport, but in life.Follow Trev on InstagramCheck out Trev's WebsiteIf you want to support the show, please click follow or subscribe wherever you are listening.
