Get ready for another round of hearty laughs and rollicking tales in Episode 1 - Part 5 of the "Proper True Yarn" podcast! 🎙️ Join TJ Hanly as he shares side-splitting yarns, including one about his mate Athol Prince's hilarious dining mishap—a barramundi order gone terribly wrong!

Listen in as TJ recounts how his friend Princey got banned from the Boulia pub and then bought Dejarra Pub to create his own drinking oasis, complete with a delivery of XXXX Gold that left the locals stunned.

Prepare for stitches as TJ describes the unforgettable time he had to clean a septic tank when a fellow worker refused. Then, he takes you back in time to share a brilliant story about his father's clever ploy to diversify the flavors of jam for the ringers on the station.

You won't stop laughing as TJ narrates a comical run-in with a cop at a stop sign, revealing the hilarious twist that follows.

But the laughter doesn't end there! TJ dives into a yarn his father told him over 60 years ago about an outback character named Boyakka, whose encounter with traffic lights in Brisbane leaves you in stitches.
