It all started innocently enough, my nephew told me to shave my legs so I could “see my muscle definition” at the gym. Sounded reasonable… until I actually tried it. Cut to me in the shower, covered in shaving foam, questioning my life choices as if I’d just joined a strange spa cult.

But wait it gets weirder. Later that day, I went to my friend’s place. She’d just had a gummy bear from L.A. (you already know where this is going) and then asked to do something to me that made me seriously wonder if she’d transcended reality.

From silky legs to suspicious requests, this episode is pure chaos, mild trauma, and a lot of laughs.

Guess who’s back on the pod? My globe trotting partner-in-crime Grace Rothschild  fresh from a six-month world tour of airports, boarding passes, and questionable in-flight meals. 

But forget the Instagram-worthy sunsets… because Grace has returned with something juicier: she’s ready to reveal the absolute worst airline in the world (and trust me, her story is wilder than turbulence at 30,000 feet).

Will she survive the retelling without breaking into airline-induced PTSD flashbacks? Will I ever book a flight again after hearing this? And does anyone actually know what those “chicken or beef” meals are made of? 

Drum roll please…  buckle up, tray tables locked, seats in the upright position — this one’s a bumpy (and hilarious) ride!

Something strange is happening on the streets… People are stopping me, smiling wide, and asking for photos. Strangers are telling me how much joy I bring them, and it’s happening more than ever. 

It got so intense, I decided to sign up to Cameo but what happened next? With Grace Rothschild as my co-host, we dive into the bizarre, thrilling, and unexpected twists of this new reality. Secrets, surprises, and a story that will keep you on the edge of your seat tune in, because nothing is quite as it seems.

Today we’re joined by the stunning and slightly confused British queen, Amy who had no idea what she signed up for. I hit her with some true tall tales (they’re true… ish), and she gets a fresh rundown of the infamous hostel slurping noise mystery. Her reaction? Chef’s kiss. 

We also dive into the legendary tale of Dr Maddison, who walked into work to find 20 sixty year olds wearing glasses clapping at him. But why? Was it a cult? A flash mob? Or just another Tuesday?

And finally… Aesop. The bougie soap brand we all pretend to buy but secretly refill with the $3.50 Woolies handwash. Are we monsters? Or just fiscally responsible icons?

Welcome to the time capsule episode of 2025! That’s right, in 20 years when your grandkids are zipping around on hoverboards and dating AI holograms, they’ll listen to this and say, “So THAT’S what the world was like in the pre-chip-in-the-brain era!'

This week I’m joined by TWO special guests  woo hoo, it’s my very first audio threesome (headphones optional, awkward eye contact encouraged).

We deep-dive into:

 AI in music – Is Spotify trying to get even richer? Are humans just a side hustle now? AI on social media – Everything looks fake and polished and perfect… is it a filter or just someone’s terrifyingly symmetrical face? Typos = Love – Why that dodgy text full of errors might be the most authentic thing you’ve read all week. (Take THAT, ChatGPT!)

Strap in. Tune up. Get nostalgic for the now.

This episode is basically the audio version of finding an old USB stick labeled “DO NOT DELETE.”

This week I’ve recruited my mate Dan  aka Dan the Man, aka the human tennis encyclopedia, aka the guy who probably knows what Roger Federer had for breakfast in 2007. He’s joining me as co-host because why not, and also because he’s a genius (but humble about it… kind of).

I tell Dan the true story of when I moved to the Big Smoke at 18, got my first proper job, and bought a suit that made me feel like a young Harvey Specter. Life was going great… until the incident the following week (yes, there were consequences… and yes, they were hilarious).

Then we jump to present day where I just received a fine in the mail that turned out to be a scam but not before I fully spiralled. And somehow that led me to tell Dan about the time I had a very Forgetting Sarah Marshall-esque experience on Bondi Beach… minus the Hawaiian shirts but plus a weird European man and a borrowed towel.

It’s chaotic. It’s true. It’s got scam mail, Bondi tales, and a suspiciously confident 18-year-old in a $199 suit.

This week on True Tall Tales, we’re dialing in across the globe! I’m joined by our hilarious co-host Tess, live from Canada (yep we’re spanning continents now, baby).

You ever have one of those weeks where the universe just goes, “buckle up, mate”? I tell Tess all about how a random convo in an infrared sauna turned into one of the strangest full-circle moments. Turns out, the  guy I was chatting with in the infared sauna was the same guy who heckled me three weeks earlier at a chicken wing eating competition I was hosting in Sydney! Wild, right?

But here’s the kicker, he turned out to be an absolute legend. So legendary, in fact, that he gifted us with a jaw-dropping story (with full permission to share) about his mate who had a very unexpected wake-up call in a Thai hostel… involving bunk beds, slurping noises, and a very cheeky monkey. 

It’s one of those episodes where you laugh, cringe, and maybe even wonder if the universe is having a laugh too.

Tune in, lean back, and enjoy the ride because on this podcast, reality really is stranger than fiction.

In this week’s True Tall Tales, Sonny gets deep like intestinal deep. We’re talking gut health, gummy bears, and the not so glamorous journey to smooth bowel bliss. After learning how many young people are being diagnosed with bowel cancer, Sonny makes a case for getting on the Metamucil train early… but let’s just say the train had some unexpected stops. From daily fibre habits to a very loud lesson learned mid-downward dog, this episode is packed with giggles, gas, and gastrointestinal gold. Don’t worry it’s the kind of overshare that might just save your butt. Literally.

This week I’m joined by my special guest and co-host Heidi Ho, who genuinely has the best laugh in the world. You’ll hear it. You’ll catch it. You’ll probably snort-laugh along with us.

I share some true tall tales from the last few weeks and let me tell you, carrot cake and old people have unexpectedly become the two softest spots in my heart. From doing something nice for a sweet old lady, to saving a granny’s life (yes, really), to completely humiliating myself by pushing in front of a line of elderly women at a very popular shop… It’s been a whirlwind. This episode is funny, sad, and ridiculously heartwarming. It’s got guilt. It’s got cake. And it’s got grannies. What more do you need?

This might just be one of the wildest — and most unexpectedly moving — episodes of True Tall Tales yet.

Meet Bill Edgar, also known as The Coffin Confessor: a man who is paid to crash funerals and deliver the messages of the dead — often juicy confessions, hidden truths, or final words they were too afraid to say while alive.

From exposing affairs to uncovering secret lives and family betrayals, Bill has seen (and said) it all — right in front of shocked mourners. In this emotional and at times hilarious conversation, Bill shares some of his most unbelievable funeral crash stories from around the world.

This episode will make you laugh, gasp, tear up, and maybe even rethink what you’d want your last words to be.

A job you never knew existed. A man you’ll never forget.

Tune in — and prepare to be haunted (in the best way).
