  Four Hours, No Toilet, And Everyone's On The Piss | FIFO Flight Yarns 18.08.2026 12min

  A 22 seater fixed wing, four hours, no toilet, and you can't stand up in it. That was the ride home every swing.So the boys would hit the bottle-o before the hangar, sink tins waiting for the plane, keep going once they were on it, and bring an empty Gatorade bottle for the obvious reason. One bloke had about six beers after a ten hour shift, filled his bottle, and kept going. The plane sits on a slight angle. Everyone's in boots so nobody notices. The admin lady up the front had her shoes off.That's the flight they got banned from drinking on. They drank anyway.Then the other one. They flew directly into one of the biggest dust storms in New South Wales history, dropped what Zak reckons was a thousand feet in one hit, and the bloke next to him wasn't belted in. Zak watched him go into the roof and stay there. He watched the pilots come out of their seats. He rang his mum. Fifteen minutes of it, a crosswind landing at 45 degrees, a go around straight back into it, and a pilot of 35 years standing on the tarmac afterwards saying that was the worst turbulence he'd ever experienced and he thought they were dead.Cheers, cunt. So did we.Which is why the episode ends where it does. When they tell you to belt up, it isn't because they're wankers.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Fake Dicks, Clean Piss And A Dealer Working Underground | Zak's Mining Yarns 16.08.2026 12min

  Zak spent years underground before he got into coal, and the mine he won't name was the most eye opening job of his life.There was a bloke dealing gear out of a lunchbox in the workshop. There was a group of them at it, and they never got caught, because between them they had fake dicks and bottles of clean piss ready to go. Right up until the day the site tested everyone in the morning, brought them all back up to the surface mid shift, and tested them again.There's a fitter knocking on Zak's door at four in the morning holding an oil sample bottle. There's a bloke sitting in a jumbo in his jocks because it was too hot, doing racks, because he was bored waiting for a sparky. There's a fist fight that broke out beside Zak while he had his hands in a thousand volt cabinet. There's a store lady, a diesel fitter, and a set of cameras that nobody told them about.And there's a leading hand who was asked to fill a condom, filled it right to the brim, and got it slapped straight back across him.Underneath all of it: Zak started having nightmares about the roof coming in. That's why he moved to coal.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Drake Has A 37% Win Rate And Has Lost Over $100 Million 13.08.2026 7min

  Drake has cycled more money through a betting account in one month than most towns are worth, and he still can't pick a winner.Zak's got Google out and we're going through the whole lot. A 37% strike rate. $770k on Canada. $1.5 million on Argentina to beat Spain, and Spain get up 1-0 in extra time. A million dollars on Argentina to beat France in 2022. Argentina win, and he still loses on a technicality. And then the one that started the whole curse conversation: a million on Conor McGregor against Max Holloway at UFC 329, and Conor's leg goes seconds into the comeback.The UFC and boxing list is brutal. Tyson. Usyk. Tommy Fury. Adesanya. He does win occasionally, Izzy in the rematch and Jon Jones by submission, but the man once posted a screenshot showing $124.5 million wagered in thirty days.Then we go looking for the biggest punts ever laid. Mattress Mack turning a $3 million bet into $75 million US when the Astros took the 2022 World Series, which is $117 million in real money. And a bloke in 1980 who walked into the Horseshoe with a suitcase holding $777,000, put the lot on one roll of the dice, and won.Baked beans or rib fillet. The choice is yours.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Podcast Royale 3.0 · Fights 12 & 13 Super Heavyweights + Jock Boxing Vs Jimmy Judge 11.08.2026 11min

  The last two fights on the card, and the main event is a bloke who fights for a living against a bloke who eats for a living.🎟️ TICKETS → alphaevents.com.au, hit the Fight Night button.Fight 12: Zayden Bryant (Dead Arse) vs BJ Wallace (Into The Green). Not heavyweights. Super heavyweights. Zayden got the call and went straight into gorilla mode, heavy bench, heavy squats, heavy deadies — and had to be told he's boxing, not entering a strongman. He's got Bryce in his corner and half of Rocky behind him. BJ's the lawn care king, a genuinely great bloke, and enormous with hands to match. Neither of us reckons this sees the end of three rounds.Fight 13: THE MAIN EVENT. Jock vs Jimmy Judge (Judgement Entertainment). Jimmy's got about 18 amateur fights. Jock's had roughly 800 and doesn't care who's holding the other pair of gloves, big, small, day or night, he'll bash blokes in a paddock. Jock's movement is genuinely slick. Jimmy hits like a truck, and when he commits to something he goes all the way down, you've seen the assault bike stuff. But Jock's running his own promotion up in Yeppoon at the same time, and we both know what a thousand other things on your plate does to a fight camp.Then everything else: the free live show the night before, the press conference, the Sunday sesh at the casino, a celebrity singing the national anthem, and a bloke potentially flying in from Norway for one chant. Sam O'Connor's skipping being best man at a wedding to fight on this card. That's the level. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  Cowboy vs Love Islander, Liam Vs Curly & Nelson's Knockouts | Fights 9, 10 & 11 | Podcast Royale 3.0 09.08.2026 13min

  Three fights this episode, and one of them we genuinely cannot call.Fight 9: Tylen Wallace vs Josh Moss. Reef versus beef. Josh is off Love Island Australia and the No Hard Feelings podcast, all his photos are at the ocean, and right now he's training somewhere between Japan and Barcelona. Tylen's in a paddock. Tylen took last year's fight on a four week call-up straight off the farm, copped a hiding to the neck and just kept walking forward. Both of us are backing the bloke with the mongrel.Fight 10: Liam Moore vs Nathan "Curly" Marks. Liam off the Inspired Unemployed Impractical Jokers, who in last year's card didn't just win, he looked like an actual pro boxer, two pros sitting next to Knuckles were calling his setups before he threw them. Against Curly, who lives in his van, won the Oak milk challenge, and has fought half the trades in the country. Zak's got him because he trains at Undisputed under current world champions. Knuckles reckons he's never met a structured fighter yet. This one splits us.Fight 11: Jeremy Latimore vs Jarrod Wallace. Nelson's Knockout Bout. One Queenslander, one from New South Wales, both flattened by Nelson Asofa-Solomona, both with everything to prove, and the whole fight is really about who's second to Nelson. Knuckles was ringside for both and walked out with Latsy. It's like your parents breaking up, you can't pick a side, and we had to.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.

  Fights 7 & 8: Tag Team Biff + The Seven Man Blindfold | Podcast Royale 3.0 06.08.2026 13min

  First up the tag team, The Better Bloke Project's Matt Rogers and Rob Sutherland against Now Thats Dramas' Tommy Allen and Brody Hetherington. Except the card might not stay that way. If Matt's out and Big Kyle steps in, everything flips. Kyle got fed to Latsy last year and got well and truly smoked, but twelve months training out of Undisputed Boxing is a long time. There's also a rumour going round about Matt and bare knuckle. Can't confirm, can't deny.Then Fight 8, the Seven Man Blindfold, where the defending champ is Ben Pettingill: blind, undisputed, and one of the best humans either of us has ever met. Which makes it awkward, because we're sending two fighters in against him: Casey, one of the best electricians in the world, and Johnny Rayner, the Mudgee lumberjack with the swollen budgie.Strategy discussed at length: hooks over straights, and whether dick punching is legal. It is not clear that it is not.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

  We got the two Proper True Yarn boys sorted last episode. Now we need to know what we're up against.So Knuckles got on the blower mid-shoot and rang every director on the card to find out who they've thrown into the Seven Man Blindfold : and why.Buster's crew have gone with Welchie, a Cargill farmer who was told 75 to 95 kilos, turned up at 105, and is now sitting at 94. He's also carrying the world's biggest testicle, which four of us have signed. One side of it. And Joey, a four-foot-eleven butcher with a big head and small hands who missed out on the antweight and is now planning to sucker punch his way through a field he can't see. Six bruised navels incoming.The Alpha Blokes have gone Team Double Champ : Tommy Duncan and Davey Cook, both double champs, one of them the owner of the only ABC pokie machine ever made.And then there's Ben Pettingill.

  Podcast Royale 3.0 Fight Preview: Gocsy vs Moose, Bluey vs The Judge 28.07.2026 11min

  The fight card breakdown starts here. Over the next run of episodes Knuckles and Zak go fight by fight through Podcast Royale 3.0, two fights an episode, and it kicks off with a couple of rippers.First up, Josh 'Bluey' Neilson from Daily Blue Weekly takes on Jared 'The Judge' Purcell from the Broken Fathers Podcast. Bluey went 1-0 at the first Podcast Royale and the boys have trained with him, so they're leaning his way, straight punches, grounded, solid unit. Then Knuckles drops the twist. Purcell's ex-army and looks an absolute weapon. Zak reckons if he walked into a pub and had to pick one to fight off looks alone, he's picking Bluey every day of the week.Then the opener that could set the tone for the whole night. Reigning champ Aaron Gocs from Have A Yarn With Me against The Moose from the Two Flogs Podcast, and Moose is calling it Buster's Redemption. Gocs got the KO first year and has got that mongrel in him, a bit of musk rat, a bit of dog. The problem is nobody's ever seen Gox get whopped, whereas Moose can clearly land and take one after that war with Quino. Both boys are tipping the Moose. Plus Knuckles is trying to get Mr Row Row himself in to lead the Viking clap for Moose's walkout, with Travis Fimmel on standby as backup.🎟️ Tickets at alpha-events.com.au.

  I Blacked Out In An Onsen In Hakuba & Had My Kei Truck "Stolen" 26.07.2026 14min

  Part 2 with Zak Palmas in the guest chair, and he's finally spilling the Japan yarns Knuckles has been making him save for the mic. The boys start with how they actually met, working side by side in the mines, ripping on people and talking about starting a podcast years before it happened. Zak reckons watching Knuckles network his way through life is what finally taught him it's not what you know, it's who you know. Then Japan. Seven trips, one stint living in Hakuba at 21 and thinking he was invincible. Working as a cleaner, skipping breakfast and lunch, snowboarding straight off shift, then sitting in the onsen dehydrated with nothing in the tank. It caught up with him at the Highland Hotel where he blacked out getting out of the hot tub and came to on the floor, butt naked, surrounded by naked blokes trying to help, and completely lost the plot before realising what had happened. Plus the kei truck era. Seven blokes in the tray drifting through Echoland, blokes nearly falling out, ending up buried in the snow. Then the night he got so blind he couldn't work out how to lock the hubs in, fell out of the ute, spent twenty minutes searching the snow for a key that was sitting in the ignition, and walked five k's home in a blizzard. Then rang his boss and told him it got stolen. ⚠️ Explicit content.#propertrueyarn📞 Get involved🎤 Send a voice message to the boys.Drop us a yarn or question and you might feature on the show.📧 Enquiries: propertrueyarn@gmail.com🌐 Website: linktr.ee/propertrueyarn📲 Follow the PodcastInstagram: @propertrueyarnTikTok: @propertrueyarnFacebook: Proper True Yarn PodcastYouTube: Proper True Yarn Podcast🤠 Meet the HostsKnuckles – Country Trucker CapsInstagram: @countrytruckercapsTikTok: @knucklesctcZak PalmasInstagram: @zpdigitalsTikTok: @zakpal Hosted on Acast.

  Buckeye’s First Start: Cam Hay Calls In With the Hot Scoop Before the Gold Coast 23.07.2026 9min

  Knuckles and Zak get Cam Hay from Mustr Racing on the phone for a quick one ahead of Buckeye’s first race start at the Gold Coast this weekend. Cam reckons the horse is flying. Two trials, two wins, and he still hasn’t been out of second gear. First trial he jumped, went to the front and stuck it in first the whole way. Second trial they went quicker, he had to absorb pressure, they clicked him up a gear and he flew away from them. There’s four more gears in there. The bit that gives Cam the most confidence is Corey Munce ringing him to say he won’t let anyone else near the horse. He’s my horse now. Walks around the stable like he owns the place and has shown them plenty in track work. The boys also talk about what the Cold Brew win was actually like on the day, blokes who met a couple of hours earlier hugging and crying by the finish, and Cam reckons it’s one of the greatest moments of his life. The plan is to double it second or third up with a proper owners day on track. 🐎 Shares still available at musrracing.com or the Mustr app on iOS and Android. ⚠️ Explicit content.

  Zak Palmas on Fighting at Podcast Royale with a corner who almost didn't show up 21.07.2026 6min

  The tables turn. After years behind the camera and in the producer's chair, Zak Palmas finally sits down as the guest, and Knuckles gets the yarn out of him. Zak breaks down his Podcast Royale fight against Matty Brown from the inside. His wife was pregnant and stuck at home with morning sickness. His trainer bailed to chase a world title. One of Australia's best boxers was meant to be in his corner and never showed. So Zak sat out the back of the Gold Coast Convention Centre completely alone, sweating bullets, watching Matty and his crew laugh around the corner, seriously considering walking out the door. The lead-up was a disaster too. Got married, did his buck's party, wrecked his ankle at said buck's party, went on his honeymoon, and rocked up to fight night on five weeks of training. Then he walked out in front of 5,500 people, a bloke who's spent his whole career as the back of someone's head on a camera, and realised it's nothing like sparring. Matty was southpaw. Zak had never sparred a southpaw in his life. His mate Yungu just kept screaming go left, go left. He got the W. He still reckons Matty won it. And now Knuckles is trying to convince him to do it all again! ⚠️ Explicit content.📞 Get involved🎤 Send a voice message to the boys.Drop us a yarn or question and you might feature on the show.📧 Enquiries: propertrueyarn@gmail.com🌐 Website: linktr.ee/propertrueyarn📲 Follow the PodcastInstagram: @propertrueyarnTikTok: @propertrueyarnFacebook: Proper True Yarn PodcastYouTube: Proper True Yarn Podcast🤠 Meet the HostsKnuckles – Country Trucker CapsInstagram: @countrytruckercapsTikTok: @knucklesctcZak PalmasInstagram: @zpdigitalsTikTok: @zakpal Hosted on Acast.

  Deleting $100k of Footage With One Keystroke, the Tony Stark Supercar Lair Under a Melbourne House & the Prince's Albino Alligators 19.07.2026 11min

  Part 9, the final one with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and it's the guest questions round. Four days deep into podcasting and Geordie's cooked, but he still delivers. He doesn't want anyone's autograph because he walks away from every shoot with a video of that person instead, which he reckons is worth more. No idols either, just running his own race, and the novelty of rubbing shoulders with Chris Hemsworth and Max Verstappen wears off quicker than you'd think. His biggest fuck-up is a good one. Eighteen hour shoot on the back of fourteen straight days, back at the accommodation copying two terabytes off twelve cards, so cooked he hit Control X instead of Control C and wiped half a card of factory footage they only had one day of access to. Call it thirty to a hundred grand, gone in a silent keystroke. Plus the Tag Heuer after-party at the Melbourne Grand Prix in a $30 million house that looks completely normal from the street until the entire front yard lifts up on hydraulics and you drive down a spiral ramp into a Tony Stark supercar lair with Peking Duk playing. And the reason the Prince of Johor has a collection of white albino alligators, which is that you can't legally export alligators from the States, but apparently an albino one doesn't count as an alligator.

  Drunk Go-Karting in the Rain in Malaysia, Piss Alley in Tokyo & Stealing a Porcelain Pineapple in Austria 16.07.2026 12min

  Part 8 with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and it's all travel yarns. Geordie's held a camera in more countries than most people visit in a lifetime. Sitting on top of Table Mountain in Cape Town, which he points out is a fair way from Dalby. Nights out in Piss Alley in Shinjuku, where three streets are packed with about 150 tiny family-run bars that fit three patrons each and some won't even let tourists in. Then Malaysia. Filming a vehicle announcement with the princes of Johor, wrapped in the afternoon, and found a 24 hour go-kart track. There's a bar at the track and they do not care how full you are. Started pissing down rain, the whole place was theirs, staff jumped in karts and started chucking buckets of water on the track so the boys could do drifties at midnight. And the big one. First trip out of Australia at 23, on a Contiki with 14 Aussie blokes in the Austrian ski town of Hopfgarten. Dead bar, a house drink called a fruit salad, a Stratocaster on the stage, and the moment Geordie started playing Highway to Hell a whole bus of Australians walked through the door. Ends with a stolen porcelain pineapple, a taxi, and waking up cuddling it covered in dots. Need a video done?

  Growing Up Outside Dalby & the School Principal Who Became One of Australia’s Most Notorious Killers 15.07.2026 7min

  Part 7 with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and it takes a heavy turn. Geordie starts light, growing up on a bit of land outside Dalby with his old man teaching at the local state school, and reckons Progress Street in Kwinalei has seen the least progress of any street in the country. The pub’s shut down too, so it’s Kaimkillenbun for a feed these days.Then he tells the yarn about his high school principal, Stacey Train, who years later was one of the three people involved in the Wieambilla shootings. Geordie’s memory of her is a good one. The day a supply teacher marched him and his mates off the school oval for climbing trees at lunch, dumped them in Stacey’s office, and Stacey just looked at them and said “you probably shouldn’t have been in the tree, so walk out of here and look sad.” Geordie talks about the subtle signs he can see looking back, the family relationships that were already breaking down, and what it’s like watching someone you knew as a decent human end up somewhere unthinkable. His take is that you’ve got to watch who you surround yourself with, because you never know where you end up. Need a video done? Find Creators of Awesome. ⚠️ Explicit content.

  Bartering With the Indonesian Military to Fly a Drone, Vaporising a Turtle on the Highway & Losing Two Drones Up a Tree in the Outback 12.07.2026 16min

  Then Christie’s driving on the highway west of Dalby filming a truck video. Swerves to save a turtle. Reckons she saved it. The following semi-trailer disagrees. Geordie’s got the GoPro strapped to the truck wheel and gets the close-up. Just a pink mist. Then Broome to Darwin. Beautiful bridge, gorgeous shot, “let’s do one more,” drone straight into the tallest tree in the outback. Then the backup drone with a stick sticky-taped to it also gets stuck in the same tree. Four and a half hours from anywhere, sun going down, throwing rocks. Finds an arborist on Facebook at 10.30pm who drives four and a half hours out at 6am and climbs the tree in two minutes flat.

  In Part 4 of Proper True Yarn with Geordie Lillis, he shares the unbelievable story of going from having just $8 in his bank account to creating one of Australia's most viral videos during COVID. Geordie opens up about recovering from life-changing injuries, travelling to Europe just before the world shut down, returning home as COVID hit, and finding himself completely broke.

  Geordie Lillis on Getting Struck by Lightning at 14, Breaking His Neck at 21 & Running Cables for the Hulk on ThorPart 3 with Geordie Lillis 05.07.2026 15min

  Part 3 with Geordie Lillis from Creators of Awesome, and this one goes off. Geordie kicks off with a proper true yarn. At 14, riding his motorbike on the family farm, he got struck by lightning. The bolt hit the power line above him and arced through the ground into his bike. Rubber wheels, rubber gloves, rubber boots. That's the only reason he's here to tell it. Mum watched him vanish in a white flash. He's got the GoPro footage too. The lightning gave him a heart arrhythmia that stuck around until he broke his neck at 21 and the shock reset his heart. Turns out breaking your neck's not all bad news. Geordie walks through the recovery. 21 years old, working on movies at Village Roadshow, one bad skim board fall on the beach, hairline fracture through C1, and months lying in bed counting flies. Then a university lecturer offered him a job teaching filmmaking around Queensland to little indigenous communities. The Pomperaw yarn about handing shoelaces to barefoot kids who turned them into fishing nets by lunch is a ripper. Plus a full breakdown of how a film set actually works. Cinematographer, focus puller, second AC, video utility. And Geordie's specific job on Thor: Ragnarok running hundreds of metres of cable so Chris Hemsworth could see the Hulk in his eyeline.
