14.022 - 28.809 Sam Watson

Hello and welcome to the Sounding Board Scorecard for DrinkWise. If you're choosing to drink, choose to DrinkWise. My name's Sam Watson and I've got eight statements for Hutchie and Damo to rate out of ten. No one has ever brought the footy community together like Neil Danaher. Ten. Ten.

0

29.47 - 47.552 Sam Watson

The ABC is directing its Twitter slash ex-followers to alternative social media platform Blue Sky, which at the start of 2026 had less than 40,000 age-verified Australian users. This is a bad move. That almost needs exploring. Seven.

0

48.192 - 48.373 Damian Barrett

Eight.

0

48.593 - 54.42 Sam Watson

Nine. Using AI to smear political opponents sets a dangerous precedent. Ten.

54.46 - 54.54

Ten.

56.68 - 60.486 Sam Watson

10. Bit of audio from Locked In with Cain Corns last week.

60.866 - 72.803 Unknown

This was on my radar, the new Mick Warner, Seb Costello podcast, the Integrity Unit. I listened to this last night. It is going to be the sounding board on steroids.

73.545 - 82.097 Sam Watson

If the Integrity Unit podcast is the sounding board on steroids, they'd want to go better than the athletes at the Enhanced Games. Seven.

Chapter 2: What are the implications of the ABC moving to BlueSky?

94.73 - 100.798 Damian Barrett

Random one. I've never passed on this segment, but I don't... Oh, okay, six.

0

101.74 - 119.24 Sam Watson

There's a good chance the AFL isn't making more mistakes than ever. The media are just picking up on more things. Six. Six. Seven. A bit of audio from Peter Volandes after Andrew Abdo's departure from the NRL.

0

119.26 - 134.213 Peter Volandes

Andrew's going to be extremely hard to replace. There's no two ways about it. He's irreplaceable. I mean, his conscientiousness, his professionalism, his loyalty, his mass intelligence. It's not, you know, we're going to need Superman and Jesus added together.

0

135.034 - 152.554 Sam Watson

Peter Volandes better start sizing himself up for a cape and a halo then. Eight. Nine. If J last one, if J has to DK to JV and she's in BT, just into Alan to get votes. Yeah.

0

152.835 - 161.308 Unknown

And she's in big show to her absolute human side, the on door knock and to knock. I reckon it's, you know, what's that's old school. Go and see the people.

Chapter 3: How does AI influence political discourse and media?

162.031 - 183.219 Unknown

Fair enough. I gave, you know, I give that a zero cause I think it's a, it was a nice tactic. I'll give it six. I'm with you partially. Yep. And Neil, you nodded everyone. Blue Sky, you and I had a crack at the start. We agreed it was a lemon. Uh, the AI is dangerous. Integrity units already on our radar. Dating apps have quite a lot of love. That's what life's all about. It's who you love.

0

183.699 - 193.809 Unknown

You can't be with the one you love. Love the one you're with. The AFL is under more scrutiny than ever. Abdo, we're well documented and I think we're pretty similar today.

0

193.889 - 201.766 Damian Barrett

Yeah. Another little mixed bag of scorecard options to rank. I like the way W's taking this segment.

0

201.786 - 222.233 Unknown

Just gone on my own AI to ask for some recommended nicknames for Damo. Not very good ones, but I'll give you a couple of them. Jewel Damo, Two Time Damo, The Network Nomad, The Double Dipper, Channel Surfer Damo, Damo 2.0, Crosscode Correspondent, The Two Clubber, Damo Everywhere, The Broadcast Backpacker, Two Network Damo, Damo Unplugged and Replugged.

0

Chapter 4: What are the hosts' thoughts on the Enhanced Games?

222.493 - 229.32 Damian Barrett

See, this is where I think AI is superfluous, Hutch. The ones you had before were better than that. The TV Free Agent's not bad.

0

230.682 - 244.018 Unknown

The Network Hopper. Damo Syndicated, the content contractor. You know what Damo's got? An identity crisis.

0

244.038 - 255.016 Damian Barrett

A wandering warrior. A wandering warrior. Got a few other things too, aren't you? A lot of other things need to wade through. That was the scorecard for the sounding board for Drinkwise. If you're choosing to drink, choose to Drinkwise.
