Ep. 321 - Blair "Gibbo" Gibson
Listen now
Description
Whilst on his annual holiday to Agnes, business partner, co-host of the Two Flogs and good mate of the show Blair "Gibbo" Gibson dropped in to have a yarn. We dive deep into his upbringing and how he has vowed to always attempt to destroy the trackside bookies since a a young buck and how that transitioned to being a professional punter. We cover the risks of professional punting, horse ownership stories, how he analyses races and some of his most memorable days on the track before we yarn about starting Two Flogs from his perspective which we've never heard before. We wrap up with a couple of ripper stories from the man, including the origin of the iconic Fruit Bat before wrapping up with the guest questions. It was unreal to get one of our great mates on for a beer and a chat to tell his story. Enjoy trendsetters!

We then dive into plenty during Cooking and the News: monkey bar combat sports, microscopic hand bags and...
