Get ready for another riveting episode of Proper True Yarn Podcast, featuring the incredible storyteller Don Naughton. In this episode aptly titled "Don's Epic Adventures: Catching A Cattle Rustler" Don regales us with a collection of jaw-dropping tales that span from the rugged Outback to the enchanting land of Egypt.

Don kicks things off with a captivating account of his time working at Plain Creek Station near Bellyando at the age of 16. Little did he know that a seemingly ordinary day would turn into an encounter with cattle rustlers. As helicopters descended and cars sped down the road, Don found himself in a situation he couldn't have anticipated. It was a showdown with the stock squad and a neighbor engaged in questionable cattle dealings, leaving Don to navigate this unexpected twist.

He then takes us back to a muster near his uncle's property, Bellview, when he was just 13 years old. What should have been a routine cattle roundup took an unexpected turn when Wavehill Bill, the property owner, declared an abrupt halt to the muster due to a rather messy predicament.

Don's adventures don't stop there. He whisks us away to Egypt, where he shares some eye-opening insights into the local customs. From having to pay for pieces of toilet paper to encountering a memorable bathroom moment at Heathrow Airport, Don's experiences in Egypt are as amusing as they are enlightening.

The discussion takes a turn towards the incredible pyramids, a wonder of the ancient world. Don reveals the surprising proximity of a McDonald's restaurant to these iconic landmarks and provides fascinating insights into their construction, alignment, and worldwide distribution.

The episode wraps up with a chat about mummies and what it's like to venture inside the pyramids, leaving you with a newfound appreciation for these historical marvels.
