    Travel Diaries: African Safari (Part A)
    Apr 26 2026

    A different kind of Howie Games episode.

    An honest, straight-up travel diary through South Africa and the wild landscapes of Namibia, packed with stories, lessons, travel hacks, and a few hard-earned mistakes along the way. From planning the trip to navigating a place of real consequence, it’s all laid bare.

    How to fly, where to stay, what to see... with some VERY special guests, this one’s as personal as it gets... and at its core, it’s about inspiring you to get out there and try something a little different.

    Let me know what you think!

    Peace and love, and happy and safe travels!

    266: Koby Stevens (Part B)
    Apr 22 2026

    A story of dreams, nightmares, anguish and redemption...

    Koby Stevens played 91 AFL games spanning the West Coast Eagles, Western Bulldogs and St Kilda... his career came to a premature end after a 15th concussion.

    The way he details the moment his childhood dreams were ripped from him, and the fear of an invisible injury for a professional athlete is admirable, inspiring and bloody scary, all in one.

    His drive to re-find his own purpose, uncover his brain injury, commit to his rehabilitation and recovery is as moving as anything we have heard on the show. Not to mention his passion of story telling and film making...

    This story will change and save lives. You don't always need a Premiership or a Gold Medal to show how powerful you are.

    Thanks Kobe.
