Why I'll Never Shave My Legs Again (A Male's Painful...

TTT - True Tall Tales Podcast ·

2025/10/13

Send us a text 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 m...

2025/09/03

Send us a text 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 ...

Send us a text 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? ...

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).

Send us a text 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 ...

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 earli...

Send us a text 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 gastro...

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...

Send us a text 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 emoti...

From creepy murals to underground tunnels and a giant blue demon horse with glowing red eyes (seriously, Google it), this airport is giving full X-Files meets The Sims 4 build mode. In this episode, I fall headfirst into the wildest rabbit hole—asking my conspiracy theory mates (who somehow had no idea this even existed?!), diggin...

As of June 6th, 2025, we’re watching history unfold like a real-life episode of Game of Thrones—but swap swords for subpoenas and dragons for private jets. The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, is in an all-out battle with the world’s (former?) most powerful man, Donald Trump. Elon just accused Trump of being named in the Epstein files. Trump wants to deport Elon. And my mate told me six months ag...

Picture this: we’re buzzing with excitement, up at the crack of dawn, and standing at the gates of Movie World on the Gold Coast an hour early like two hyper little theme park disciples. But what followed? Pure chaos. Think less “Hollywood magic” and more Fyre Festival with rollercoasters. From dashed dreams to dry churros, shady signage to soul-crushingly closed rides...

I’m talking about the endless platforms, rising prices, and how I now need a spreadsheet just to watch a sitcom. This is my official therapy session, and lucky you, it’s free to listen (unlike literally everything else these days).

In this episode, I take you behind the scenes of my chaotic (and hilarious) time working in restaurants and bars — where boredom inspired absolute madness. I’m spilling the tea on how I would spice up the endless shift grind by putting on completely random accents and convincing tables I was from far-off exotic lands (spoiler: it got weird). I’ll also share the wild tacti...

This week, I’m dishing all the chaotic, hilarious details about my trip to a stand-up show at Star City Casino on the Gold Coast — a venue that looks like a sci-fi church designed by someone mid-mushroom trip. The comedians? Genuinely brilliant. The audience? A glorious mess of tipsy tourists, freebie-chasing locals, and people who may have taken a wrong turn on the way to the pokies. ...

Send us a text This week, I’m reaching into the archives — like way back — to share something that means a lot to me. 8 years ago, I made a short film. I was fresh into the acting world, full of hope, nerves, and a deep sense of “who even am I?” As a young Aussie actor, I quickly discovered that being born here didn’t always mean I “looked” the part. I wasn’t the stereotypical blonde-haired, blue-eyed beach boy — and that reality hit hard when I kept getting rejected for roles that supposed...

I break it down in the simplest way possible—no science degree required.

The undeniable aura of someone who’s either saved the world or at least ordered a very specific martini. But when I casually asked, “Are you…?”, he hit me with some Oscar-worthy improv: “Oh no, I’m just a professional poker player.” Mate… that’s literally too close to Casino Royale! Was he undercover?

First, we revisit the legendary scandal when a mystery culprit turned a customer’s ice cream into an unappetizing surprise—an act of pure mischief that erupted after a family grumbled about the pub’s blaring music and a missed football match on TV. The plot thickened when, just as the ice cream debacle faded into urban legend, a new wave of shenaniga...
