#170 - Hands Up (feat. Rich Fogarty)

Daily Blue Weekly

Show Notes

It's Fight Week, and the boys brought in the only man qualified to talk them off the ledge: Blueys coach, Rich Fogarty. Rich has spent 35 years in combat sports, holding pads for Jon Jones at midnight in Albuquerque, sitting in Muhammad Ali's house and driving out to Mike Tyson's place for the day. On this episode of Daily Blue Weekly he gets into growing up in a Newcastle bikie pub, cutting bodies open in the morgue at 16, why influencer boxing is actually fine by him, the athlete who asked not to be filmed from behind.

Knuckles joins Gabe and Bluey on Daily Blue Weekly to talk about running nine companies, the time he walked up to Albo at the footy with a plan to fix the country.

Undefeated. Two from two. And yes, something was in his pants at the press conference. Bluey is back from Podcast Royale 3 with a unanimous-decision win and a lot to unpack: the press conference stunt and the round 3 moment where he eased off and checked if his opponent was okay. Then Daily Blue Weekly goes full Knights fever. The Newcastle Knights went from the wooden spoon to beating the Penrith Panthers with 12 men, and Gabe's written them a poem for the grand final against the Roosters.

Plus going full curtains-closed on conspiracies. He's back in the ring at Podcast Royale 3 on the Gold Coast
