    AJ: The Highlanders “Zoo” Chicken, The Black Dildo Ban & The Streaker Tackle That Hit ESPN

    17.2.2026 | 16 Min.
    AJ rolls in dusty after a big night and immediately delivers one of the loosest sports yarns you’ll ever hear.
    Back in 2013 in Dunedin, AJ gets recruited to fire up the Highlanders student section (“The Zoo”) at Forsyth Barr Stadium - but instead of a normal mascot gig, he ends up in a full chicken suit, half cut, and armed with a “bag of gags”… including a black dildo that (somehow) becomes part of the entertainment.
    It goes exactly as you’d expect: the sponsor finds out, emails start flying, and AJ cops a life ban… until they change their mind and invite him back with one condition: no dildos.
    Then it levels up. Mid-season, a streaker hits the field and AJ - still dressed as a chicken — absolutely crunches him in a tackle that blows up across radio, news, and even lands on ESPN Top 10 plays. But the fame comes with a cost: a news outlet tries to unmask the mascot, forcing AJ into a choice that changes everything.
    From there it turns into a three-week Highlanders championship bender: packed pubs, the “Landers Army,” printing champions tees, trophy tours, a cooked Bedford bus with shithouse brakes, cops pulling them over, and a 21-day tear that ends in pneumonia… and a relationship ultimatum he definitely ignores.
    This is pure chaos, pure NZ rugby culture, and a proper true yarn from start to finish.

    Rob Comiskey | Wild Pub Stories, Biggest Business Lessons & The Craziest Party Ever

    15.2.2026 | 21 Min.
    his episode is a proper yarn with Rob Comiskey from the Comiskey Group - one of Australia’s biggest hospitality and entertainment operators.
    Rob breaks down the biggest business lessons he’s learned over the years (including knowing when to cut bait), the high-stakes Brisbane court case that nearly broke them, and how that risk turned into a massive win.
    Then it gets loose: Rob tells the story of the wildest party he ever hosted - inside a converted Energex substation - with security on the gate, a DJ setup, roof dives into the pool, and absolute Superbad-level chaos.
    We also chat about meeting famous faces (Post Malone), scouting Nashville bars for ideas, building venues with their own personality, and the behind-the-scenes madness of running a distillery + brewery, including the reality of rum ageing rules and importing ethanol into Australia.
    If you’re into Australian pub culture, hospitality business, nightlife stories, and elite proper true yarns, this one’s for you.

    Rob Comiskey | Marilyn Manson Chaos, Ice Cube’s KFC Rider & Behind the Scenes of Big Shows

    12.2.2026 | 15 Min.
    Back with Rob Comiskey from the Comiskey Group for a behind-the-curtain look at what really goes on when world-famous artists hit Australian venues.
    Rob shares the Marilyn Manson story you won’t believe - insane green room demands, “don’t look at him” rules, and an elevator meltdown that turned into a 45-minute standoff… all because he refused to walk a short set of stairs.
    We also get into the wildest security briefing Rob’s ever heard, how venues handle extreme performers, and why respect for staff matters - especially when you’re dealing with security teams on the front line.
    Then it flips to legendary: Ice Cube’s rider might be the best of all time - two buckets of KFC and a bottle of bourbon - and yes, they had to keep KFC open late to make it happen. Rob also talks Cypress Hill nights where the crowd was a full-blown smoke cloud, plus what “artist riders” really cost and why most of it never even gets touched.
    To wrap it up, Rob breaks down what makes a concert truly successful: the punter experience, constant improvements, and building venues and events that people walk away from singing.
    If you love Australian hospitality stories, backstage chaos, music industry insights, and proper true yarns, this one’s for you.

    Rob Comiskey on Risk, Rain & Real Margins

    10.2.2026 | 12 Min.
    This week on Proper True Yarn, Knuckles sits down with Rob Comiskey from Comiskey Group to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to bring massive live shows to life.
    Rob breaks down the promoter game: why sometimes you don’t “promote” a show - you buy it, how deals can be decided in minutes, and why it’s all risk vs reward (and honestly… sometimes it’s just a punt). From turning down Elton John early at Sandstone Point, to bringing out The Beach Boys, to the brutal moment COVID flipped a sold-out Violent Femmes show into a six-figure loss overnight - Rob shares the wins, the misses, and the stuff punters never see.
    They yarn about genre-by-genre bar spend, lightning evacuations, why insurance has become a nightmare, and the reality that one headline or a curveball can change everything. If you’ve ever wondered how the big dogs do it — this one’s a proper behind-the-scenes belter.
