Seasick, Stressed & Almost Cancelled — The Boys Are Back
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
The boys are back and this week's episode is an absolute ripper! Dave kicks things off with a full debrief on his fishing trip — the one where he managed to reel in a beast, but the ocean had other plans and got the better of his stomach. Meanwhile, Drew had to pull up stumps and leave site early due to a family emergency, and the boys get real about just how stressful it is dropping tools and heading home when life throws you a curveball. If you've been there, you'll know exactly what they're talking about.
Dave's Diary is BACK — and this one... this one might just get the show cancelled. Don't say we didn't warn you.
The boys also dive into some of the strangest rules ever encountered out on site, and honestly, some of these are absolutely unhinged — you'll be losing it. Then it's into a solid yarn about training and development in the industry, something that hits close to home for anyone trying to level up their career in the resources sector.
And in a small world moment — Dave crosses paths with Drew's cousin out on site. Mining world truly is a tight-knit one, hey.
It's a big episode, plenty of laughs, and the usual no-BS chat you've come to expect from the blokes.
