Episode Details

In this episode of the Proper True Yarn Podcast, Beau Jones and Jordan Abbey Young take Knuckles back to Jordan’s hometown of Forsayth in North Queensland for what was meant to be a wholesome country weekend and quickly turned into absolute chaos.What starts as a 2000-kilometre road trip in an old 75 Series LandCruiser becomes a full-scale lesson in small-town dynamics. Yabbie races with serious money on the line, locals who already know everything about you before you arrive, and tension brewing the moment someone decides to run their mouth at the pub.The boys unpack how a “big blue” turned out to be the most anticlimactic fight of all time, why Bo somehow always manages to miss the action by going for a piss, and how rumours grow legs faster than facts in a town of eighty people. By the end of the weekend, stories of coward punches, fires, and alleged violence are circulating, despite almost nothing actually happening.Things escalate further at the Forsayth Turnout when country music royalty Luke Geiger pulls Jordan up on stage in front of his hometown crowd. What should have been a hero moment turns into pure second-hand embarrassment when Jordan realises he doesn’t know the lyrics to his own family anthem or Friends in Low Places.The episode also dives into the aftermath. More pub blues, emotional locals, a grown man crying on his mum’s shoulder in front of half the town, and one of the strangest hypothetical questions ever asked between mates, ending with the unforgettable answer: “larger than not, no.”It’s a raw, hilarious look at country towns, long memories, fragile egos, and why going home is never as simple as it sounds.If you’re into outback stories, small-town pub fights, country music chaos, road trips gone wrong, and real Australian yarns, this episode delivers exactly that.Messy, honest, and completely unapologetic.A proper true yarn from the bush.#propertrueyarn
