Sam Newman: Unfiltered, Unapologetic & Still Stirring the Pot

AFL great. Media lightning rod.

Unfiltered to the very end. Sam Newman sits down with Kate Save for an honest, no-holds-barred conversation about life in the spotlight—from his 300-game footy career and 25 years on The Footy Show, to financial collapse, public backlash, and navigating cancel culture. Sam opens up about:

The highs and lows of playing elite sport

Losing everything (and what it taught him)

Saying what he really thinks—on and off camera

His viral boat trip around Queensland

Why he refuses to play it safe, even at 79

You may not always agree with him—but you’ll never catch him pretending to be anything but himself.
