    Moist Hole & Broken Boats
    Oct 7 2025

    In this ripper episode of Proper True Yarn Podcast, Knuckles sits down with Team Tuna Fishing to swap stories of being “professional amateurs.” From snapping rods and cooking engines mid-comp, to sinking tins while limping a sand-clogged boat back to shore, these blokes prove that looking pro doesn’t mean fishing pro. The yarns spiral into community spirit, near-disasters on the water, jerseys printed with the wrong bloody name, and even a charity golf day where the infamous “Moist Hole” stole the show. Packed with banter, blunders, and plenty of laughs, this one’s for anyone who’s ever fished, fucked up, and had a beer about it.

    In this wild episode of the Proper True Yarn Podcast, Tony takes us from army shenanigans to life-threatening moments on a C-130 Hercules. From dangling on a harness at 13,000 feet while filming freefall jumps, to getting blasted by Black Hawk downwash and even staring down a bull at Barkly Homestead, these yarns are equal parts adrenaline, danger, and Aussie humour. Strap in for laughs, near misses, and raw tales from nearly a decade in uniform.

    Shell Shock & Betrayal
    Oct 5 2025

    In this gripping Proper True Yarn Podcast episode, we dive deep into the raw realities of service life with Team Tuning. From a Chinook nearly torn apart by a rogue artillery shell that left a soldier with a permanent stutter, to the shocking story of a cook betrayed and killed by an Afghan soldier while on lookout, this yarn doesn’t hold back. Tony and his guest unpack the chaos of deployment, close calls under fire, and the trust-shattering moments that leave scars long after the uniform comes off. Beyond the battlefield, they explore the struggle of losing your identity when service ends, and how fishing, family, and new purpose can help light the way forward.
