Dave Drops Kilos, R U OK Day, Mining Safety
2026/09/12
Send us Fan Mail This week on Blokes in Mining, Drew and Dave get into one of the biggest conversations in the industry - mental health. With R U OK? Day putting the spotlight on checking in with your mates, they talk about why those conversations matter so much in mining, what looking out for each other really looks like, and why sometimes you need to go deeper than simply asking, “Are you OK?” They also check in on Dave’s weight-loss journey, how he’s tracking, what’s working, the challenges along the way, and the impact getting healthier can have both physically and mentally. It’s an honest conversation about health, mateship and looking after yourself - and the people working beside you. 🎧 Listen on Spotify:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Apple 🎧 Listen on BuzzSprout:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-BuzzSprout 🎧 Listen on Website: 👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Website Thanks for tuning in to Blokes in Mining Podcast.  Make sure to follow the show and chuck us a rating if you're keen—it helps more legends like you find it.

Mining, Mateship & Politics with MP Robbie Katter
2026/07/29
Send us Fan Mail Drew and Dave take Blokes in Mining inside Queensland Parliament House for a wide-ranging yarn with Robbie Katter. Robbie opens up about representing one of the biggest and most diverse electorates in the country, the importance of mining and regional industries, and the challenges facing the communities that keep Queensland moving. The conversation covers the realities of life outside the major cities, jobs, infrastructure, government decision-making and why regional voices need to be heard in Brisbane. There are also plenty of stories from the road, behind-the-scenes moments from Parliament House and the usual laughs you would expect when Drew and Dave sit down for a chat. It is an honest, relaxed conversation about mining, politics, regional Queensland and the people who make it all work. 🎧 Listen on Spotify:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Apple 🎧 Listen on BuzzSprout:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-BuzzSprout 🎧 Listen on Website: 👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Website Thanks for tuning in to Blokes in Mining Podcast.  Make sure to follow the show and chuck us a rating if you're keen—it helps more legends like you find it.

Rants, Extreme Diets, And We're Bringing Back the Xmas Party
2026/07/15
Send us Fan Mail Drew and Dave are back and Dave's still buzzing off the McGregor fight — he's coming in absolutely hot this week and there's no cooling him down. The boys make the case for bringing the Christmas party back to mining because let's be honest, it's been missed. Dave goes on a proper rant about blokes who don't wanna work, grab a cuppa for this one. There's also word Dave's gone full extreme diet mode, so stay tuned for how long that lasts. Big news: the Blokes in Mining Christmas Party is officially coming, details TBC. Plus the boys unpack the chat around false positives on site, and it wouldn't be an episode without a fresh entry from Dave's Diary. Grab your hard hat and your headphones, this one's a ripper. 🎧 Listen on Spotify:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Apple 🎧 Listen on BuzzSprout:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-BuzzSprout 🎧 Listen on Website: 👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Website Thanks for tuning in to Blokes in Mining Podcast.  Make sure to follow the show and chuck us a rating if you're keen—it helps more legends like you find it.

Dave's Embarrassing Bike Incident, No-Shows at Work & One Nation on the Rise
2026/06/26
Send us Fan Mail Dave's been off the tools for a while now, and this week he finally sits down with Drew to talk about why. A motorcycle stack left him with an injury that's kept him off site, and in this episode the boys get into what that's actually been like — the frustration of not being able to work, the boredom, and the bit nobody talks about: the guilt of leaving your crew short-handed. They also get stuck into the news of the week — One Nation's sudden surge in the polls and what's actually behind it, plus another serve for the government over how they keep fumbling the mining industry. And there's a good honest chat about happiness on crew, what makes a good culture on site, and why blokes taking time off shouldn't mean copping grief from their mates. Real talk, a few laughs, and the usual no-BS take from two blokes who've seen it all on site. Pull up a seat for this one. https://minersfinancegroup.com.au/ This episode’s brought to you by our major sponsor, Miners Finance Group.

Survivor, Singer, and Son of a Legend
2026/06/11
Send us Fan Mail Dave and Drew crack a cold one with Don Rogers — country music singer, reality TV survivor (literally), brother of Mat Rogers, and son of Cronulla Sharks immortal Steve Rogers. Don's lived a hell of a life. He's belted it out on The Voice, roughed it on Australian Survivor, and fronted his own band — but the yarns that hit hardest are the ones about his old man. Steve Rogers was one of rugby league's all-time greats, but life off the field was tough, and his passing hit him hard. Don doesn't hold back talking about the grief, going off the rails, and eventually finding his feet again. It's the kind of chat that goes places you don't expect — plenty of laughs, a few gut punches, and a bloke who's been through the wringer and come out the other side. Pull up a seat, this one's a ripper. https://www.donrogers.com.au/ https://minersfinancegroup.com.au/ This episode’s brought to you by our major sponsor, Miners Finance Group.

Boxing Ring to Rock Bottom — and Back
2026/05/20
Send us Fan Mail ⚠️ Content Warning: This episode contains discussion around suicide and mental health. If you or someone you know is struggling, contact Lifeline on 13 11 14. From the boxing ring to the stage — this week we sit down with Gavin Topp, former professional boxer turned motivational speaker, for an honest conversation about what it really means to be a bloke in today's world. Gavin opens up about his boxing career, the highs, the hits, and what life looked like when the gloves came off. We get into the heavy stuff too — lost masculinity, mental health battles, and the moments that brought him to his knees before he found his purpose. This one's raw, real, and exactly the kind of conversation blokes in the mining industry need to hear. Whether you're doing it tough on site or just trying to figure out who you are outside of the job, Gavin's story and purpose will hit home.

Seasick, Stressed & Almost Cancelled — The Boys Are Back
2026/05/06
Send us Fan Mail The boys are back and this week's episode is an absolute ripper! Dave kicks things off with a full debrief on his fishing trip — the one where he managed to reel in a beast, but the ocean had other plans and got the better of his stomach. Meanwhile, Drew had to pull up stumps and leave site early due to a family emergency, and the boys get real about just how stressful it is dropping tools and heading home when life throws you a curveball. If you've been there, you'll know exactly what they're talking about. Dave's Diary is BACK — and this one... this one might just get the show cancelled. Don't say we didn't warn you. The boys also dive into some of the strangest rules ever encountered out on site, and honestly, some of these are absolutely unhinged — you'll be losing it. Then it's into a solid yarn about training and development in the industry, something that hits close to home for anyone trying to level up their career in the resources sector. And in a small world moment — Dave crosses paths with Drew's cousin out on site. Mining world truly is a tight-knit one, hey. It's a big episode, plenty of laughs, and the usual no-BS chat you've come to expect from the blokes.

Wet Weather Mining | Homelife Challenges | Pit Pilot Yarn
2026/04/07
Send us Fan Mail When the rain rolls in, the work doesn't stop — and neither does the pressure. This week on Blokes in Mining, we're getting into what it's really like to keep dirt moving when wet weather hits the site. From slippery haul roads to waterlogged pits, we talk through the challenges of maintaining productivity when Mother Nature has other plans, and why the job still has to get done no matter what the sky is doing. But it's not just what happens on site that weighs on a bloke — it's what happens when you pull into the driveway. We have an honest conversation about the reality of coming home after a long swing: the exhaustion, the mental load, and why sometimes you need a few quiet minutes before you can switch from "mine mode" to "dad/partner mode." If your family has ever wondered why you don't just walk through the door ready to talk, this one's for them too. And Dave's Diary is back! Dave's been at it again this week — sharing another raw, real entry from life on the tools. You won't want to miss it. Whether you're currently on roster, heading back out, or the one holding down the fort at home — this episode is for you. 🎧 Tune in, have a listen, and as always — stay safe out there, legends. 🎧 Listen on Spotify:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Apple 🎧 Listen on BuzzSprout:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-BuzzSprout 🎧 Listen on Website: 👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Website Thanks for tuning in to Blokes in Mining Podcast.  Make sure to follow the show and chuck us a rating if you're keen—it helps more legends like you find it.

Fuel Bills, Kiwi Hills, Albanese gets a Spray & Fighting for the Industry
2026/03/25
Send us Fan Mail Drew and Dave are back in the shed for another no-nonsense yarn covering everything that matters to blokes on the tools and in the industry. This week, the lads kick things off swapping holiday stories from New Zealand before getting stuck into the real talk — fuel prices are through the roof and everything else is following right behind it. Sound familiar? You're not alone. Then it gets serious. Mining jobs are under genuine threat in the current political and economic climate, and the blokes aren't holding back. With the Labour government seemingly turning a blind eye to the industry and offering nothing in the way of a real plan, Drew and Dave ask the hard questions about what the future looks like for hardworking Australians who've built their lives around mining. Net zero? The boys reckon it's time to have an honest conversation about scrapping it altogether. On a more positive note, there's some good news on the political front — Matt Canavan stepping up as the new Nationals leader has the blokes cautiously optimistic. Here's a bloke who actually understands mining and isn't afraid to say it. And of course, Dave wraps things up with another instalment of Dave's Diary — because life on the tools is never short of a story. Grab a cold one and have a listen. This is the podcast for the people who keep Australia running.

Is War Good For Mining | Pit Voting One Nation | Ban Kids On Planes
2026/03/06
Send us Fan Mail This week on Blokes in Mining, Drew and Dave dive into what’s happening in the world and how it affects life on site. They unpack the growing tensions with Iran and why global conflict can actually have a surprising upside for the mining industry. Higher demand, rising commodity prices, and why geopolitics often ends up flowing straight through to the resources sector. The boys also get into the politics being talked about in the crib room — including why plenty of miners reckon they’ll be voting for Pauline Hanson and One Nation at the next election. Then it’s time for a classic travel debate: plane etiquette. Should kids be banned from flights packed with FIFO workers? And when you’re stuck in the middle seat… who actually owns the armrests? Plus another instalment of Dave’s Diary, where Dave shares a few stories from the week that only seem to happen in mining camps. Real talk from the pit, the plane, and the pub — this is Blokes in Mining.

Stripper Onsite | More Wet Days | NRL Namedropping
2026/02/18
Send us Fan Mail This week on Blokes in Mining, Drew and Dave are back in the saddle — one running on coffee and chaos from night shift, the other casually rubbing shoulders with rugby league royalty. Dave checks in from the land of backwards body clocks, grinding through night shift while the rain keeps hammering down across site. It’s wet, it’s messy, and it’s a proper reminder that mining doesn’t stop just because the weather’s turned feral. Drew, meanwhile,’s been off the tools and into the suits — heading along to Matt Rogers’ 50th and somehow managing to bump into a handful of NRL legends. If you like a bit of shameless name-dropping, you’re in for a treat. There’s another instalment of Dave’s Diary, the boys yarn about training (and trying to stay disciplined when the roster’s flipping you upside down), and the usual no-BS chat about what it’s really like working FIFO when the conditions are average and the motivation’s even worse. Real talk. Real blokes. Real life on site. If you’re on shift, in the ute, or smashing a workout between swings — this one’s for you.

Life Expectancy of a Miner | 3rd Degree Burns | Yungblud Tickets
2026/01/27
Send us Fan Mail Welcome to the Blokes in Mining Podcast.   We kick off with the usual chaos — Drew’s FIFO life update, Dave's Australia Day, site yarns, and a listener offering us a free ticket to a Yungblud concert (which raises serious questions about our age). Then we get into the headline topic we’ve been circling for a while: What does mining — and shift work — actually do to your body over time? No scare tactics. No preachy wellness chat. Just straight talk about: • Night shift and body clock damage • Heart disease, diabetes and cancer risk • Sleep debt and chronic fatigue • Energy drinks, caffeine, painkillers and sleeping tablets • The mental health toll of isolation and long rosters And the uncomfortable truth underneath it all: Modern FIFO life trades money for accelerated biological ageing. We finish with Dave’s Diary — a final story from site — and bring things back to ground level where this show lives. If you work in mining, FIFO, or shift work… this ones for you. 🎧 Listen on Spotify:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Apple 🎧 Listen on BuzzSprout:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-BuzzSprout 🎧 Listen on Website: 👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Website Thanks for tuning in to Blokes in Mining Podcast.  Make sure to follow the show and chuck us a rating if you're keen—it helps more legends like you find it.

Cyclones, Rio Tinto Merger & Bringing Back the Box
2026/01/14
Send us Fan Mail This week on the Blokes in Mining Podcast, the boys are dealing with real-world chaos. Drew gives a firsthand update from up north as the cyclone rolls through, disrupting operations and putting a heavy focus on site safety. What happens on the ground when weather shuts things down — and what crews are doing to stay ready. They unpack the latest Rio Tinto news. Dave’s Diary returns with another instalment — this time tackling “the box”, why it disappeared, and why it might be time to bring it back. And there’s lighter stuff too — Drew’s birthday is coming up, with plans brewing at one of their favourite local venues. Plus, a quick note in the show notes — Almane Collective have come on board as a new sponsor.

Mining Industry In Mourning - Really Sh#t Start To 2026
2026/01/06
Send us Fan Mail The Christmas and New Year break is supposed to be the reset — family time, slow mornings, breathing out. But this year… it landed differently. In this episode, we talk honestly about the tragic mining deaths that have rocked the industry and the ripple effect that follows — the crews on site, the families at home, the mates who carry the “what ifs” long after the headlines disappear. We look at why safety isn’t paperwork — it’s people. And we talk about what it means to come home in one piece, physically and mentally. We've got another Dave’s Diary — a pit legend who put his team ahead of his suffering (warning:  gets graphic, but we reckon you can handle it). If parts of this conversation hit close to home, don’t carry it alone. Talk to someone. Reach out. There’s help, and it’s there 24/7.

Burner Cars, Dodgy Qualifications & Toilet Rolls Attack
2025/12/23
Send us Fan Mail Last one for 2025 — and we’re going out the only way we know how. Drew’s on holidays, so we cover the important stuff: the best burgers, golf with the boys, and why that’s basically self-care on site. Dave digs into training assessments on camp, how dodgy qualifications get exposed, and the awkward reality of booting someone who shouldn’t have been there in the first place. There’s a fresh Dave’s Diary, including the big drive, the new burner car at his latest gig, and a camp prank that escalated into full toilet-roll warfare — one bloke, everyone involved, until he finally cracked and left site. That’s it for us in 2025. Massive thanks to everyone who’s listened, shared, and backed the pod this year. Have a ripper Christmas, stay safe out there, and we’ll see you back on deck in 2026. 🎧 Listen on Spotify:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Spotify 🎧 Listen on Apple:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Apple 🎧 Listen on BuzzSprout:  👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-BuzzSprout 🎧 Listen on Website: 👉 https://bit.ly/BIM-Website Thanks for tuning in to Blokes in Mining Podcast.  Make sure to follow the show and chuck us a rating if you're keen—it helps more legends like you find it.
