<p><strong>Winking at Royals & Surviving Cream Pies – with Tony Jones</strong></p><p>It’s hump day and Channel Nine’s Tony Jones joins Swanny, Samantha & Ralphy for a Melbourne Cup Week warm-up filled with racing tales, newsroom chaos, and the time he <em>winked</em> at Princess Di. From dodging Queen invites and surviving Eddie’s boardroom roasts to covering turf tantrums and trackside tripods, nothing’s off-limits. We talk Lou Richards memories, Mick Malthouse blow-ups, and why Billy Slater on horseback nearly stole the show. If you like your sports media with a side of scandal and a dash of self-deprecating truth, this one’s for you.</p><br><p>Follow & support us where you can, hit subscribe and share the pod with a mate.</p><br><p>Podcast : <a href="https://www.instagram.com/swannyandfriends/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@swannyandfriends</a></p><br><p>Dane: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/danes84/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@danes84</a></p><br><p>Samantha <a href="https://www.instagram.com/samanthariches/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@samanthariches</a></p><br><p>Ralphy: <a href="https://open.acast.com/racetrackralphy.com.au" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Race Track Ralphy</a></p><p>Support this show <a target="_blank" rel="payment" href="http://supporter.acast.com/hump-day-with-swanny-and-friends">http://supporter.acast.com/hump-day-with-swanny-and-friends</a>.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
