The Dom Harvey Podcast

On saturday August 13 2022, Arch Jelley turns 100!  This podcast was first released back in April when Arch (the lifelong coach of NZs greatest ever middle distance runner, John Walker) was still 99.If you missed this episode, you are in for a treat.  Arch's memory and story telling is brilliant.  Its not every day you get to sit down for a conversation witrh a New Zealander who has lived through a depression, a world war, a global pandemic and everything else in between.  Oh, and he achieved some cool s**t along the way!Dom   Hosted on Acast.

She is one of the most fierce cricketers in the world, a tough big hitter...and now a Commonwealth Games medalist.In this bite sized clip, taken from our podcast conversation, Sophie Devine talks in depth for the first time about her mental breakdown that saw her unable to play the game she loves for a period of time.  This is raw, open, courageous and incredibly vulnerable and I can't thank Sophie enough for being so candid.  I hope you guys like this and get something good from it.Dom Hosted on Acast.

Sophie Devine is pretty much NZ sporting royalty (She will squirm big time at that sentence!).She’s played hockey for NZ and she is currently the captain of the White Ferns cricket team.  She made her first class debut at 14 and has been in the national side since she was 17 (she’s 32 now).She’s a bloody laugh and I loved our chat.  She was 100% open and honest about a terrifying breakdown she experienced that saw her walk away from the game she loves until she felt ready to return.  We also talk about living with diabetes, her really-reaaly long distance relationship, playing in all boys teams as a kid and loads more. Theres a fair bit of cricket chat in here.  But shes such a good story teller that it is all pretty good stuff.Follow Sophie on IG:  @Sophd77This podcast has been brought to you by Arepa.It’s a high performance brain drink made right here in Aoteroa with blackcurrent and bark (definitely can't taste the bark though....its yum as).If you go to Drinkarepa.com you can use the discount code DOM20 for a 20% discount (August 2022).  Hosted on Acast.

You name it, Tyla Nathan-Wong has won it with the NZ Sevens team.  World cups.  Olmpic gold and silver.  Commonwealth gold, and a bronze from Birmingham earlier in the week.But before being a famousrugby player, she was famous as a baby.  In this short clip taken from the full conversation, we talk about that entire experience of being an Anne Geddes baby.If you have no idea who Anne Geddes is, google her name and click on some of her images.  Her work was real famous in the 90's.  Hosted on Acast.

Sam Tanner will be racing at the Commonwealth Games in Birmingham tonight (4/8/2022).He ran his first sub 4-minute mile when he was just out of school and he has been getting faster ever since.  He is the NZ record holder for 1500m- 3.34.Warning:  This is heavy on run chat- just warning the listeners who aren’t big fans of that content. But there is also lots of good non-run stuff in here, I really enjoyed his company.  Sam is a super high energy guy and talks the way he runs- fast!Follow him on IG:  Samueltanner_And thanks for getting the podcast, especially if you have messaged me or given it a good rating or review.  I really appreicate the input.  So thanks.Dom.  Hosted on Acast.

At 28 Tyla has won silver and gold Olympic medals, a Commonwealth games gold, 2 rugby sevens world cup titles AND she has twice been named NZ sevens player of the year.  She was also a model for legendary photographer Anne Geddes as a baby, something we chat about in this conversation.I loved this podcast so much.  Tyla is such an easy conversationalist and a real open book.  I really hope you guys like this one as well.Cheers,  Dom   Hosted on Acast.

Disclaimer.  This is a repeat episode that was first shared back in March.  I’m reposting it because on the day of the reppost Hayden was been in Birmingham for the 2022 commonwealth games.We discuss how he won and then almost lost his Olympic medal, losing his dad in a plane crash as a young boy, the romantic gesture to his girlfriend while she was in MIQ and much much more. He's got years ahead of him but he is already an absolute weapon in the sport.  If its your first time hearing it, I hope you enjoy it and get to learn more about this young Kiwi champion.  Hosted on Acast.

On the day this episode released, Andrea had just competed in the Birmingham Commonwealth Games.  At the age of 40 and with a toddler, it may be the last time we ever see this triathlon legend wearing the black lycra.We talk about her incredible career spanning almost 2 decades, how she stayed fit during her recent pregnancy, giving birth WHILE nursing a broken arm, the time she finished a triathalon after breaking her collarbone, the sudden death of her partner in France a few years back and much more.Shes pretty shy and modest so talking about herself is not something that comes easy to Andrea.  With that in mind, I really appreciate her making the time to sit down to chat.Hope you guys enjoy it.    Hosted on Acast.
