#22 Boys Ep from Rio Favela | Scams, Muggings, Dick Shrimp, Illegal Border Crossings & more!
Feb 21, 202502:23:42Tap to summarizeThis was a properly self-indulgent recording from when we first met and landed in our Favela AirBnB in Rio for NYE 2025.Many more of our (especially Ted's) stories that we now have saved for posterity. Xav recounted his travels thus far as we all dreamed of our travels to come.Fair bit of business chat, life goals chat and Tim struggling to stfu chat (which cheap beer didn't help) and we were well-prepped for a good night out!Hey there to future Tim\Ted\Xav that might be looking back on this.To anyone else; enjoy and be potentially amused!Tim:)

Dec 27, 202401:12:01Tap to summarizeTed and I have been adventuring around for as long as I can remember. Whether exploring Melbourne's ethnic hotspots, storm-water drains and abandoned buildings or hitchhiking overseas, it's been quite the hobby!It was awesome delving into some aspects of him we've never properly explored as well as ensuring his stories are on the record.More to come from Ted in upcoming episodes!
Transcribe →#19 Harmon Singh | Unlimited Talker & Ultimate Hustler
Dec 21, 202402:10:49Tap to summarizeThis ep was recorded across two sessions squeezed between Freediving sessions and me getting to the airport... thus interruptions abound!Harmon grew up in an Indian single mum household amongst the sugarcane and banana farms of Far North Queensland. Influenced by conservative family and community members on one side, and rogue adventuring locals on the other, he has a fascinating journey of finding his place in Australian society and the wider world.He also has no issues talking!This is Harmon Singh.

Transcribe →#14 Ngatai Hetet | From Stealing Lawnmowers to Inspired Fatherhood
Nov 17, 202401:58:56Tap to summarizeNgatai is a true inspiration! We met on a Freediving week away in Mt. Gambier a few years ago and his character shone through even in our relatively brief interactions. We dive into his wild youth on the streets of the Illawarra, through his 20s gaining prestige as an asset on the rugby field and crowned 'bender king' off it. He now works with disadvantaged youth and posts positive content on social media as a full 180 from where he began....
