Proper True Yarn

Silly Saturday rolls in with the usual weekend sermon: rip, tear, bust… or do absolutely fuck-all,just don't spend it mowing the lawn.Then the hotline delivers a stacked set of yarns:Harley Wong (Rodeo Root): a backseat session turns into next-day panic when the girl messages asking if he left a condom in her… and Harley's response is as cooked as you'd expect.Carl Zilly (Average Willy, Bundaberg): at a diabetes seminar in Hervey Bay, he links with a “wee Bonnie lass” and ends up in the bedroom staring down a prosthetic leg… that quickly becomes part of the requested “mischief.”Nulsy's Fishing Adventures (Rooftop Tent Intruders): comes back to his own rooftop tent to find two randoms mid-act-lets them finish, then bins the mattress the next day.Beefo Keef (Car Crash Horror Film): a head-on at highway speed, the other car's occupants dead, a hospital lockdown with an angry mob, cops revealing the driver was known and the car was stolen… and the kicker: the passenger was already dead before the crash. Somehow it ends with $150k compo and buying a sailboat in Florida to sail back to Australia.To wrap, the boys plug Our Cow: use code YARN for $50 off your first box over $200, and the yarn of the month scores a free meat box-plus a reminder to send your own yarns in.

Knuckles wraps up with AJ “the NZ hype train” and fires through a rapid set of guest questions - from grooming habits and what you'd buy with a billion, to biggest fuck-up, dream movie casting, and the ultimate fantasy pet.AJ's “biggest fuck-up” turns into a full wedding-night disasterclass: arriving underfed, going way too hard, letting off fireworks, an accidental dancefloor knock-out, and a brutal one-liner that gets him kicked out… before making the worst decision of all and drink driving - owning that he deserved to be pulled over.They finish lighter: wild party picks (R&V and Oktoberfest in Munich), AJ casting himself as Jim Carrey (Ace Ventura devotion included), and choosing a trained big ape as the ultimate pet. Knuckles closes the ep with a final shout-out to AJ and a new life motto to send everyone off on the right note.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

AJ wraps up his wild Auckland era with absolute carnage from Rhythm & Vines (R&V) - New Zealand's massive New Year's festival pulling 30,000+ punters.Him and Ant get handed the main stage hosting gig, which is normally just quick intros… but they turn it into full theatre: six or seven costume changes a night, morph suits, Kermit, Pink Panther, inflatable boat races, kiss cams - and at one point, going out completely nude before a major headline act (thankfully not during).They share the chaos of working around big artists like Savage, Sticky Fingers (who rocked up 40 minutes late while the crowd frothed), and the madness of trying to keep a festival crowd engaged when no one's really listening anyway.Then it drifts into pure after-dark festival mischief: roaming campgrounds in costume at sunrise, hiding in hay bales to dodge security, impulsively stealing a tractor for absolutely no reason… and somehow ending up buying a plus-size inflatable doll named “Bernice” for $100 - who later appears on stage leaking in front of thousands.They also revisit the old Short & Wide TV show days, including a brutal hurdles challenge that leaves AJ with one of the most unfortunate bruising stories you'll ever hear.It's five years of festival madness, media chaos, and two idiots pushing stage hosting way further than it ever needed to go.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

AJ reckons his 2015–2018 era in Auckland was a full-blown heater — TV show attempts, MC gigs, and running social campaigns (including a massive Snapchat growth run). But the wheels properly fall off with two all-time public blow-ups.First: he's working content for a Blue Sky / Spring Break party trip heading to Rarotonga. He's filming the hype on a delayed Jetstar charter, steps near the cockpit to grab a shot, and the captain reckons he's filming inside - final call is the captain's, so AJ gets escorted off by police and left watching the party flight take off without him. He books the next-day flight anyway… only to arrive and get quarantined in his room for two days so the crew can “lay low” in case it hits the news. That ends his Blue Sky run.Then: an international match at Seddon Park (Hamilton) where security mistakes AJ for another bloke in the same classic Black Caps top. He gets cut off, then cameras catch him taking a sip of a mate's beer - and he's escorted out. A snarky push turns into AJ saying “I'm walking” … and it escalates to handcuffs, right as the Northern Districts CEO clocks the whole thing. The result: AJ loses the upcoming MC gig for the grand final, and he takes it as the final straw.After that, he heads back to Dunedin, slows down, and the rest is history - meets his future wife on Tinder, kid, new job, calmer chapter.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.

Silly Saturday is back with Knuckles and Zak firing up the hotline—powered by the legends at Spit & Swallow (code YARN gets $50 off your first box over $200, plus a monthly free meat-box giveaway).The boys chat work-life balance, upcoming travel, and drop an early tease for the 2026 Podcast Royale: the seven-man blindfold is locked in, with teams being picked and the call-out going wide for anyone game enough to jump in (including the dream of a tough-as-nails yarnette entering the chaos).Then the yarns roll in:Poosie Yarn: a birthday shack session goes feral when a mate destroys the bathroom-shit everywhere-leaving someone else to deal with the crime scene.Quick One-Liner: a classic mechanic/tradie quote about what can “squeal.”Bali Collarbone Yarn: a post-night-out massage turns into a near-robbery, a moped stack, a broken clavicle, Bali hospital drama, and a solo flight home-right before starting a new job.Knuckles wraps it up with respect for the tough bastards who push through injury, and the usual reminder: send your yarns in through the Country Companies site or the link in bio.

AJ's back for Part 2 — and it starts with the obvious question: how bad was the Wilson car park damage? ($300… and they basically gave up issuing tickets.)Then AJ tells the story of his return to Forsyth Barr Stadium years later, this time asked to suit up as William Wallace again for a halftime dance comp (with an iPad on the line)… except he stops at a student flat, turns a “warm-up” into a full bottle of vodka, and the whole mission spirals.From falling over at a crossing and losing his gear, to roaming the stadium yelling Braveheart quotes, to pulling himself into the marketing room and spewing on the costume, it's an absolute trainwreck. Then comes the infamous toilet incident - including the alleged wall-writing that AJ swears was a setup - and two cleaners reportedly running out screaming.Somehow he isn't banned, eventually gets welcomed back as a megaphone hype-man, and AJ says he's even been invited to MC the 2026 season - full circle.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

AJ rolls in dusty after a big night and immediately delivers one of the loosest sports yarns you'll ever hear.Back in 2013 in Dunedin, AJ gets recruited to fire up the Highlanders student section (“The Zoo”) at Forsyth Barr Stadium - but instead of a normal mascot gig, he ends up in a full chicken suit, half cut, and armed with a “bag of gags”… including a black dildo that (somehow) becomes part of the entertainment.It goes exactly as you'd expect: the sponsor finds out, emails start flying, and AJ cops a life ban… until they change their mind and invite him back with one condition: no dildos.Then it levels up. Mid-season, a streaker hits the field and AJ - still dressed as a chicken — absolutely crunches him in a tackle that blows up across radio, news, and even lands on ESPN Top 10 plays. But the fame comes with a cost: a news outlet tries to unmask the mascot, forcing AJ into a choice that changes everything.From there it turns into a three-week Highlanders championship bender: packed pubs, the “Landers Army,” printing champions tees, trophy tours, a cooked Bedford bus with shithouse brakes, cops pulling them over, and a 21-day tear that ends in pneumonia… and a relationship ultimatum he definitely ignores.This is pure chaos, pure NZ rugby culture, and a proper true yarn from start to finish.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

his episode is a proper yarn with Rob Comiskey from the Comiskey Group - one of Australia's biggest hospitality and entertainment operators.Rob breaks down the biggest business lessons he's learned over the years (including knowing when to cut bait), the high-stakes Brisbane court case that nearly broke them, and how that risk turned into a massive win.Then it gets loose: Rob tells the story of the wildest party he ever hosted - inside a converted Energex substation - with security on the gate, a DJ setup, roof dives into the pool, and absolute Superbad-level chaos.We also chat about meeting famous faces (Post Malone), scouting Nashville bars for ideas, building venues with their own personality, and the behind-the-scenes madness of running a distillery + brewery, including the reality of rum ageing rules and importing ethanol into Australia.If you're into Australian pub culture, hospitality business, nightlife stories, and elite proper true yarns, this one's for you.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.

Back with Rob Comiskey from the Comiskey Group for a behind-the-curtain look at what really goes on when world-famous artists hit Australian venues.Rob shares the Marilyn Manson story you won't believe - insane green room demands, “don't look at him” rules, and an elevator meltdown that turned into a 45-minute standoff… all because he refused to walk a short set of stairs.We also get into the wildest security briefing Rob's ever heard, how venues handle extreme performers, and why respect for staff matters - especially when you're dealing with security teams on the front line.Then it flips to legendary: Ice Cube's rider might be the best of all time - two buckets of KFC and a bottle of bourbon - and yes, they had to keep KFC open late to make it happen. Rob also talks Cypress Hill nights where the crowd was a full-blown smoke cloud, plus what “artist riders” really cost and why most of it never even gets touched.To wrap it up, Rob breaks down what makes a concert truly successful: the punter experience, constant improvements, and building venues and events that people walk away from singing.If you love Australian hospitality stories, backstage chaos, music industry insights, and proper true yarns, this one's for you.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week on Proper True Yarn, Knuckles sits down with Rob Comiskey from Comiskey Group to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to bring massive live shows to life.Rob breaks down the promoter game: why sometimes you don't “promote” a show - you buy it, how deals can be decided in minutes, and why it's all risk vs reward (and honestly… sometimes it's just a punt). From turning down Elton John early at Sandstone Point, to bringing out The Beach Boys, to the brutal moment COVID flipped a sold-out Violent Femmes show into a six-figure loss overnight - Rob shares the wins, the misses, and the stuff punters never see.They yarn about genre-by-genre bar spend, lightning evacuations, why insurance has become a nightmare, and the reality that one headline or a curveball can change everything. If you've ever wondered how the big dogs do it — this one's a proper behind-the-scenes belter.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Rob Comiskey from the Comiskey Group jumps on the Proper True Yarn Podcast to share how his family built some of Australia's biggest pubs and live music venues -including Eaton's Hill Hotel and Sandstone Point Hotel.From building Subways at 19, getting ripped off by dodgy managers, and taking massive risks, to running eight mega pubs, resorts and $850M+ in projects - this is a proper “have-a-crack” business yarn about backing yourself and building big.Hospitality, property, live music, and real Aussie hustle.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast.
