Episode Details

Before she was a WBC champion throwing punches on the world stage, Chloe Chaos was a shaved-head kid from Melbourne's outer north — taekwondo champion, angry at a world she couldn't make sense of and carrying a grief no twelve-year-old should ever know.

In this raw and wide-ranging conversation, Neil sits down with the professional boxer and all-round firecracker to unpack the story behind the name. Chloe takes us back to the moment everything changed — when her best friend Asia was killed by her own father the night before year seven — and how that single act of violence quietly shaped the fighter, the protector, and the survivor she would become.
