Back in the Studio: Triathlon Shake-Ups, Super League Drama & Matt Hauser’s Rise | Unfunded Ep 21

The boys are back! In Episode 21 of The Unfunded Podcast, Lockie and Leighton return to the studio to talk all things triathlon – from World Triathlon Series drama to Super League shake-ups and T100’s growing influence.

We break down:
- Matt Hauser’s dominance in the World Series and whether Del Miguel Hidalgo can still take the title.
- Coaching changes & off-season resets – why so many athletes are mixing it up.
- Lockie’s DQ story – the accidental course cut that got him disqualified.
- Hamburg Mixed Relay win – Australia’s big result and the youth vs experience debate.
- Super League vs T100 – which format has the edge and why the sport feels fragmented.
- Hayden Wilde’s insane comeback after breaking ribs & a scapula just 3 months ago.

Whether you’re into short-course racing, long-course battles, or just love the behind-the-scenes banter, this one’s packed with hot takes, predictions, and the kind of triathlon chat you won’t get anywhere else.
