Gilmore. 102 00:05:27.092 --> 00:05:28.453 What's your favourite movie of all time? 103 00:05:28.708 --> 00:05:29.548 Probably The Hangover. 104 00:05:30.208 --> 00:05:31.309 There's some classic ones there. 105 00:05:31.349 --> 00:05:35.090 Just some of the, actually I had one of them on last night just in the background while I was doing other things. 106 00:05:35.170 --> 00:05:42.112 And yeah, some of those old classic movies, some of the fun, that Zach Galifianakis, he's all time, Alan as he's called on the show. 107 00:05:42.132 --> 00:05:47.753 Just some of his one-liners, some of his hair flutters and his satchel and these other things. 108 00:05:47.854 --> 00:05:49.674 It's yeah, top movie. 109 00:05:49.874 --> 00:05:51.615 Hey guys, you ready to let the dogs out? 110 00:05:51.975 --> 00:05:52.175 What? 111 00:05:52.255 --> 00:05:52.595 Do what? 112 00:05:53.818 --> 00:05:56.583 Let the dogs out, you know, like, who let the dogs out? 113 00:05:56.763 --> 00:05:57.604 Who, who? 114 00:05:57.965 --> 00:05:58.827 Who brought this guy along? 115 00:05:59.107 --> 00:06:01.391 Yes, Alan, we are ready to let the dogs out. 116 00:06:01.712 --> 00:06:02.413 Music. 117 00:06:02.433 --> 00:06:03.595 What are you into musically? 118 00:06:03.947 --> 00:06:05.508 Oh, it really depends on the environment. 119 00:06:05.528 --> 00:06:09.370 You know, if I'm training, it might be a bit like techno, upbeat type stuff. 120 00:06:10.591 --> 00:06:14.253 Otherwise, if it's more about like reflecting and thoughts, it might be a bit more country. 121 00:06:14.434 --> 00:06:21.718 But to be honest, every time I'm dropping my girls at school, three girls, the little fellas at home, there's some K-pop stuff. 122 00:06:21.898 --> 00:06:23.079 It's Taylor Swift. 123 00:06:23.379 --> 00:06:24.120 Yeah, it's... 124 00:06:24.922 --> 00:06:26.683 The Wiggles, Peppa Pig kind of things. 125 00:06:26.723 --> 00:06:35.390 Yeah, it's all the girly sing-along things, which I don't mind because I love hearing them singing in the car away home or away to school and they're just happy and fully invested in it. 126 00:06:35.410 --> 00:06:38.372 And, yeah, to be honest, I've probably become a fan of some of those songs as well. 127 00:06:39.013 --> 00:06:51.182 You will have met a lot of people in your rugby league journey of what we would call well-known or celebrity nature, someone reasonably well-known that you've met, Darbs, that's made a positive impression on you. 128 00:06:51.578 --> 00:06:53.059 Well, I would have to say Wayne, I guess. 129 00:06:53.099 --> 00:06:54.380 I could probably say that a lot. 130 00:06:54.420 --> 00:07:01.464 But for what he did for me, not only in the regular league field, but more importantly off the field, and that's been through my mental health journey. 131 00:07:01.504 --> 00:07:10.129 It's through becoming a father for the first time, from retiring from sports to what I'm doing after sport, even into doing a bit of coaching these days. 132

00:07:10.370 --> 00:07:17.174 He's given me so much wisdom and advice that he's been really impactful for me for a lot of reasons for a long period of time. 133 00:07:17.788 --> 00:07:20.110 Can you flick him a text and ask him to come on the podcast with me? 134 00:07:20.130 --> 00:07:20.491 I'll do it. 135 00:07:20.611 --> 00:07:21.932 I'll have to do it, yeah. 136 00:07:22.833 --> 00:07:25.435 Make sure you send me his response as well. 137 00:07:25.455 --> 00:07:25.836 Yeah, yeah. 138 00:07:25.876 --> 00:07:28.618 Favourite holiday destination for you and Kayla and the kids? 139 00:07:29.619 --> 00:07:31.421 We've been to Hawaii a few times. 140 00:07:32.342 --> 00:07:32.522 Yeah. 141 00:07:33.003 --> 00:07:33.783 Yeah, the girls love it. 142 00:07:33.803 --> 00:07:37.847 It's just a good mix of, you know, walking along the strip in Waikiki with all the shops and... 143 00:07:38.948 --> 00:07:47.676 restaurants and things and obviously you've got the beach on your doorstep there as well and there's a zoo there and there's an aquarium and there's a water park and yeah, there's a lot of things to do. 144 00:07:47.716 --> 00:07:49.237 So yeah, we really enjoy Hawaii. 145 00:07:49.618 --> 00:07:52.200 Bucket list destination, somewhere you haven't been that you'd like to go? 146 00:07:53.010 --> 00:07:54.191 Well, I've been to LA before. 147 00:07:54.211 --> 00:08:01.660 I probably have to say LA again, only because I can't think of it off the top of my head, but I really enjoyed that when I watched the Lakers play. 148 00:08:01.680 --> 00:08:04.424 It was LeBron's first game for the Lakers in 2018. 149 00:08:04.544 --> 00:08:05.605 Oh, wow. 150 00:08:05.625 --> 00:08:06.426 Which was pretty cool. 151 00:08:06.686 --> 00:08:08.388 Yeah, they played the Raptors, I think. 152 00:08:09.349 --> 00:08:11.152 My wife, Kayla, she really enjoyed that experience. 153 00:08:11.172 --> 00:08:11.612 It's just the... 154 00:08:12.533 --> 00:08:22.240 the music and the, and the upbeat and the crowd so close in basketball, we are more of an NFL fan, but we've been to a San Fran game, uh, in NFL and it's just, you know, it's further away. 155 00:08:22.280 --> 00:08:23.321 The game takes longer. 156 00:08:23.341 --> 00:08:24.641 There's less hype and music. 157 00:08:24.681 --> 00:08:26.803 So, um, and we weren't there long enough. 158 00:08:26.823 --> 00:08:33.067 So to go and experience some of the restaurants and, um, downtown and other parts of LA, I think I'd probably just love to go back there again. 159 00:08:33.087 --> 00:08:34.788 Do you listen to podcasts? 160 00:08:35.009 --> 00:08:35.449 Yeah, I do. 161 00:08:35.509 --> 00:08:35.709 Yep. 162 00:08:35.769 --> 00:08:35.969 Yep. 163 00:08:36.310 --> 00:08:38.191 Give me a recommendation of one to listen to. 164 00:08:39.229 --> 00:08:42.117 One I've listened to the most probably, it's called The Daily Motivation. 165 00:08:42.137 --> 00:08:44.203 I think his name's Lewis Howes. 166 00:08:44.223 --> 00:08:46.349 He's an ex-athlete over in the US. 167 00:08:47.313 --> 00:08:51.355 And the reason I like that is because a lot of it's just like he does a lot of like eight to ten minute snippets. 168 00:08:52.195 --> 00:08:55.157 So you obviously don't have to, you know, it's a 40 minute podcast. 169 00:08:55.217 --> 00:09:01.059 And if you drive 10 minutes to work or however you listen to them, you don't have to break it up into three or four little sittings. 170 00:09:01.079 --> 00:09:01.920 He does little breakups. 171 00:09:01.940 --> 00:09:08.703 But the best part about that because of the, you know, the well-being and I guess growth mindset and the things I like to surround myself with, he does a lot of stuff in the… 172 00:09:09.463 --> 00:09:13.987 In those fields, it gets influential people on that, you know, Jay Shetty's a life coach that's been on there. 173 00:09:14.027 --> 00:09:15.408 He gets Tony Robbins on there. 174 00:09:15.448 --> 00:09:23.194 It gets people that, you know, psychologists that speak about happiness or relationships or man's search for meaning and culture. 175 00:09:23.235 --> 00:09:28.259 He gets all the financial education, you know, so brain health, gut health, you know, diet. 176 00:09:28.279 --> 00:09:32.142 So just gets all these different topics and people on there that talk about those things. 177 00:09:32.583 --> 00:09:39.334 important realms, I guess, and you can listen to those and pick the topic you kind of want and get some really good information and understanding on them, which is cool. 178 00:09:39.675 --> 00:09:40.176 What's it called? 179 00:09:40.556 --> 00:09:41.638 The Daily Motivation. 180 00:09:41.778 --> 00:09:41.999 Right. 181 00:09:42.119 --> 00:09:42.860 I'll check that one out. 182 00:09:42.920 --> 00:09:43.882 Last couple for you. 183 00:09:44.948 --> 00:09:47.649 What, if anything, scares you? 184 00:09:47.989 --> 00:09:59.894 Oh, spiders, snakes, being claustrophobic in a tight space, anything impacting my young family, my children obviously is a big one. 185 00:10:01.434 --> 00:10:05.496 Yeah, probably social media for them as they grow and develop, especially my girls. 186 00:10:05.516 --> 00:10:05.696 Yep. 187 00:10:05.776 --> 00:10:15.233 Yeah, there's a few things, but not so much scared, just more making sure I'm really prepared and trying to surround themselves with good ways to, you know, get themselves through that is probably the best way to put it. 188 00:10:16.032 --> 00:10:18.093 Obviously a gun rugby league player. 189 00:10:18.694 --> 00:10:23.497 Tell us something else, Darbs, that we wouldn't know about that you actually rate yourself at. 190 00:10:23.717 --> 00:10:28.080 Like I am also, I'm good at rugby league but I'm also good at it. 191 00:10:28.140 --> 00:10:30.821 I was all right at athletics as a kid but probably tennis. 192 00:10:31.101 --> 00:10:33.343 I did a bit of tennis at school. 193 00:10:33.923 --> 00:10:37.946 So whenever there's a tennis comp on with staff at footy training or whether it's just... 194 00:10:38.506 --> 00:10:41.088 My daughter's doing it now, so she keeps saying she wants to have a game with me. 195 00:10:41.108 --> 00:10:43.629 Yeah, I rate myself for a little bit of tennis. 196 00:10:43.649 --> 00:10:50.973 I get a decent serve when it goes in, and then I can definitely hold a rally and get myself around the court, which is probably an attribute of mine as well. 197 00:10:51.574 --> 00:10:55.636 Your full episode comes out next week, but this is the most important question I have for you, Darbs. 198 00:10:55.676 --> 00:11:04.682 This defines you as a father, as a husband, as a Queenslander, as an NRL premiership player, as a man doing fantastic work in the community. 199 00:11:05.526 --> 00:11:06.387 Are you ready for this one?
