In this episode, the third-best machinery operator in the world (self-proclaimed but heavily decorated), Trev 966, joins the Proper True Yarn Podcast for a round of hard laughs and heavy yarns. From shaggy pickup lines and tiger-sized dreams to marble rings in Augathella and losing his virginity at a snail's pace, Trev doesn’t hold back. There’s guidepost carnage, fairway-crossing driving, and a trophy room overflowing with employee of the month awards. A lighthearted, piss-taking, Aussie-as chat with the king of the cab and the smoothest operator this side of Queen Street.
