#7 Mitch Starc and Nathan Lyon
Growing up in the Victorian countryside, Dylan James Buckley dreamed of two things... Being the host of Australia’s favourite sporting podcast and smacking Daniel Vettori over the fence for six.

Do they feel the weight of expectation from this cricket-obsessed country? What do they really eat during the tea break? The Bucka Boy takes a peg at the stumps and nails it. Howzat?!

#5 Tom Mitchell
He’s the AFL’s “it” player… A dominant All Australian midfielder who is hot favourite to take home the 2018 Brownlow Medal. Surely a man blessed with this much talent lives a life that bears no resemblance to the ho-hum, menial existence of schlubs like you and me, right? WRONG. Tom Mitchell laughs, cries and enjoys a footlong just as much as any other 20-something Australian. He also fell in love with a girl at a house party in 2008 while a Gabriella Cilmi song was playing. Intrigued? Hit play.

You probably wouldn’t know that as he’s really humble. Never fear… You can count on Dylan James Buckley to extract this national treasure’s important life story from his shy country lips.

AFL superstar Josh Kelly opens up to Dylan about his newfound interest in genealogy, his difficulty in coming to terms with the sale of his childhood holiday house and why being Sydney’s most eligible bachelor isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Powerful stuff.
