70 | Holiday Stories, Platinum Pennant Finals Preview & A Big Announcement
🎙️ Episode 70 - Holiday Stories, Platinum Pennant Finals Preview & A Big Announcement
Episode 70 is packed with everything happening on and off the green.
Simon’s back from Bali (thankfully avoiding Bali Belly), with a surprise catch-up with former World Champion Mike Nagy and a sneak peek at a developing bowls club overseas.
From there, we dive straight into the action:
- Results from Champion of Champions events
- The $100K Everest wrap-up
- Big performances in the UK and Victoria
- A rising 15-year-old star making headlines
Then it’s all eyes on the Platinum Pennant Finals — with a full breakdown, predictions, and why Raymond Terrace might just be too strong at home.
We also unpack a controversial story out of Queensland involving a bowls club sale — and what it means for the future of clubs as businesses.
And to top it all off…
Simon drops a huge personal announcement 👀
