Larrikin, comedian, wild unit and legend of a bloke Brett Blake joins us for a yarn. This weapon has got some ripper tales to share as we begin with what got him inspired to originally do comedy and the experiences he's had in the industry over the nine years, including being on multiple film sets being a lighting and rigging specialist and even being an underwater cameraman. After going through his comedy style, we go through a few of Brett's wild life stories, including auditioning for Tiger King. We finish off with some of the best answers we've heard to the guest questions. Enjoy legends!

Enjoy legends!

Aussie country music singer, down to earth legend and good mate of the show Brad Cox returns for another ripper yarn. Coxy runs us through his continued growth in the country music scene, and a few integral changes he has decided to make after taking a break in his brand new Yarns and Yodels tour: a more relaxed and chilled set with some ripper laughs in between from the great man. We touch on how the legend has been working on his farm just down the road, including his vegetable garden projects and dive into some fishing chat before finishing up with some updated guest questions. Was unreal to get one of our favourite blokes back on the couch, and we're sure it won't be the last time too. Enjoy trendsetters!
