S9 E35 - LIVE SHOW: List Cloggers, Cartoons and a Grand Final

The Sounding Board

It's our special live show from the Main Stage at the AFL Footy Festival on Grand Final eve! Hutchy and Damo recorded the show in front of the live crowd in front of the backdrop of the MCG, and what a special location for a massive edition of the show. After the week we had in media with three of Footy Classified's hosts moving to Channel 7 in 2025 – including Hutchy – the boys dive into how it all played out, how everyone reacted, and what happens going forward.

Thank you to the AFL for allowing The Sounding Board to do a live show from the Footy Festival, and to Pot Plant Productions for their technical assistance.
