Welcome back to Proper True Yarn! Recorded LIVE at AlphaFest, this episode is packed with wild, hilarious and unbelievable crowd yarns. First up, Zak meets a drummer with one of the most cooked highway stories you'll ever hear, involving a dodgy Honda Accord and a very questionable driver. Then Chris shares an incredible survival story after being diagnosed with stage four Burkitt's lymphoma at just 15 years old. Given only 12 to 24 hours to live, he somehow pulled through, beat cancer and is now 25 years cancer free. We also hear a classic old-school motorbike yarn from Townie, before the Novocastrian Nuisance wraps things up with a parenting lesson gone horribly wrong involving hygiene advice, a young fella and a scourer. Funny, shocking, emotional and very Australian, this is AlphaFest Live at its finest.#propertrueyarn

If Daniel wrote these shownotes they would be much nicer. But honestly, this was exhausting. Listening to people who just ramble on about things they know nothing about is tiresome. I don't know how people listen to this for pleasure. It's a genuine waste of time. But Daniel knows all about it. The dopamine hits. The self righteous anger. The feeling of tribalism. It's all baked into the piece. And while nobody seems to actually listen to their longform podcast (their listenscore is average at best), they get huge amounts of reach by making snappy little reels for social media. Reels like the one where they read out an email from the WikiLeaks/Podesta breach better known as 'Pizzagate' - except they don't read out what the emails actually say. Is this intentional or accidental? That's hard to tell. But there's one thing that's easy to see - especially for anyone familiar with DMs work - these unwitting clowns are doing the bidding of billionaires who have pushed an agenda through 'citizen journalists' and astroturf media outlets to destroy faith in institutions and create culture wars to distract us from their efforts to pillage the world for insane amounts of money. The greatest trick billionaires ever played was convincing idiots that trans kids are the problem. These guys are the the useful idiots of the Epstein class. Dan prepared a giant write up for this and did a great job. It's an excellent episode. I also finished a law exam that day (done for the semester - woot) which means I was, uh, academically refreshed by the time we started. But it gets worse. I even edited out some slurring at the end - my god. Definitely throwing stones in a glass house by the end...! Enjoy this descent into the minds of those who seek to unite us by bricking people they disagree with. It's hard to understand how that works, but bro just trust the plan. PS - if someone offers to fly you somewhere to do something you should ask who they are and maybe google them first. I would reference Tenet Media here but they knew what they were doing and who was paying them. I guess they get credit for that.

Recorded live at AlphaFest, this episode delivers some of the wildest yarns from the crowd and from Proper True Yarn regular, Tiny. First up, Casey recounts the time she accidentally found herself behind the wheel of a massive tractor at a country pub near Roma. What started as trying to impress a few old cowboys quickly turned into sprinklers exploding, sheep running through the car park, and enough muddy water to irrigate half the town. Then fan favourite Tiny steps up with two absolute belters. He tells the story of "Fuckface Damo", the bloke who survived bull riding, facial reconstruction and hearing aids, only to have his martial arts career ended in one disastrous fight. But the chaos doesn't stop there. Tiny also relives the unbelievable Fraser Island rescue mission where a cooked 80 Series LandCruiser somehow became airborne at Ngkala Rocks and miraculously drove for another two years. From country pub disasters and cowboy culture to flying LandCruisers and blokes who refuse to quit, this AlphaFest live recording is packed with classic Aussie humour and outrageous true stories. Based on the AlphaFest live recording transcript.

Recorded live at AlphaFest, this episode delivers two absolutely unbelievable yarns from the crowd. First up, Dylan shares the Christmas Day adventure that started with a quiet drink after the kids left and somehow escalated into a spontaneous foursome he never saw coming. Then things take an even stranger turn when Casey from CJ Electrical tells the incredible story of how a vasectomy—meant to stop him having more children—somehow led to him fathering a third child naturally after years of IVF treatments. From wild Christmas chaos and questionable life decisions to medical mysteries that sound too crazy to be true, this AlphaFest live recording is packed with laughs, shock moments, and classic Aussie storytelling. Featuring Alpha Blokes community members, unexpected twists, and the kind of yarns that only happen when microphones are rolling at AlphaFest.

Recorded live at AlphaFest, this powerful and emotional episode features Bizza from Newcastle sharing his personal battle with mental health, anxiety, online criticism, and suicidal thoughts. After being publicly targeted and falling into a dark place, Bizza opens up about how community, mateship, podcasts, and seeking help changed the direction of his life. This raw conversation highlights the importance of men's mental health, checking in on your mates, speaking up when you're struggling, and finding strength through connection. Bizza explains how the Alpha Blokes, Proper True Yarn, Two Flogs Podcast and the wider AlphaFest community helped him step back from the ledge and rediscover purpose. A moving reminder that you're never alone, and that one conversation can change a life.

For patrons only for 1 year: We trace how the notion of the “industrial revolution” – originally a foreign, Continental idea rooted in German dialectical history – entered into British political discourse and then into sacred national mythology, enshrined by the tourism industry and by Thatcherite politics. Then we examine the evolving debate over whether the alleged revolution was a good or a bad thing—or whether such an event happened at all, considering its narrow limitations in time, space, and scope. Finally, we weigh carefully the arguments that have been advanced in defense of the traditional myth, including the explosive growth of British cities, the wide divergence between Europe and the rest of the world, and the appearance of so-called “proto-industrialization” in the organization of labor before the rise of machines.

Part 4 with world champion Chad Collins — this one's all heart. Chad gets passionate about why every belt he's won (17-19 of them and counting) lives at his gym instead of collecting dust at home. He breaks down the kid-walking-into-Urban-Fight-Gym moment as a young Tucker, seeing Nathan Corbett's WMC world titles on the wall, and realising that's the dream — and how he's now paying it forward for the next generation of Aussie weapons coming through. Plus a proper breakdown of Muay Thai's global rankings (Thailand 60%, England second, Australia a fast-rising third), why he reckons it's a poor man's sport that deserves more shine, and a healthy rant about why MMA is shit when they're wrestling on the ground. Knuckles agrees — get the fuck up and punch on. ⚠️ Explicit content.

Part 3 with world champion fighter Chad Collins — and it's the rawest one yet. Chad walks through his 15-fight winning streak, the WBC world title defence where he split his shin open, and the four-week turnaround for the brutal Petch Panomarung fight in Japan where he won with blood and piss pouring out of his leg. Then the high comes crashing down. Chad gets honest about Miguel Trinidad — the Portuguese striker who idolised him, told him at the weigh-in "I'm gonna beat you bad," and then put Chad down for the first time in his career. He talks through the head-game spiral afterwards, the comeback win in Japan, the 8-man Glory vs Rise tournament, and the rematch with Trinidad that didn't go his way either. Plus the "purple patch / black patch" philosophy from his old man, and why Chad reckons the tide is turning ahead of his next fight on 2 November — round 3 of the 24-man Last Man Standing tournament against Yura. ⚠️ Explicit content.

On today's episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast, we're talking about the first year owning a brick-and-mortar yarn shop with my guest, Sanjani Ramkissoon. Sanjani is the owner of Stitch & Revel, a yarn shop in Livermore, California, a charming wine country town in the Bay Area, about 45 miles east of San Francisco.  Born in Fiji and raised in the Bay Area since the age of five, she considers herself an accidental business owner, turning a long-held dream into reality when an unexpected opportunity to purchase inventory from a closing yarn shop led her and her husband to take the leap. They opened Stitch & Revel in September 2025, in a new location with a fresh vision and name. Her vision for the shop was to create an experience, not just a place to buy yarn (though that's important too), but a space where creativity flows and community grows.  +++++ Today's episode is sponsored by Stitchcraft Marketing.

We went on deer walks, watched The Wizard of Oz, made pancakes, and took turns on the mower and backhoe. Aila's birthday dinner which ended with an impromptu dance show by Hattie and a  not-so-subtle take over by almost 2 year old Miles Zach's birthday party had animals- they had the most gorgeous rooster I've ever seen. After looking at machines for years, I finally bought an espresso maker. The girls Im going to Rhinebeck with this year started a Marco Polo group chat. Woke up early before NH Sheep and Wool- so I got a car wash and came with 10 min of vacuuming. I got that done and it felt SO good. Took a little field trip to the Beacon Hill Bookstore on Charles St with my co-workers. Lovely to get out, talk books, connect.   Quote of the Week "Everybody has a little bit of the sun and moon in them. Everybody has a little bit of man, woman, and animal in them. Darks and lights in them. Everyone is part of a connected cosmic system. Part earth and sea, wind and fire, with some salt and dust swimming in them. We have a universe within ourselves that mimics the universe outside. None of us are just black or white, or never wrong and always right. No one. No one exists without polarities. Everybody has good and bad forces working with them, against them, and within them.   From- PART SUN AND MOON by Suzy Kassem" ------   Thank you for tuning in!   Contact Information: Check out the Down Cellar Studio Patreon!
