    Wow.

    I didn't know much about Richard Towers personal life but the podcast with Tris Dixon is one of the best I've ever listened to.

    Fascinating stuff.

    Yeah, Tris really needs to get part 2 done, he's a great interviewer as well.

    Listened to Jamie Moore’s and David Coldwell’s recently. Both excellent.

    The shooting incident was interesting but I think there's more to it than he's letting on...

    Crazy podcast. What a bad life he was living. He’s done well to turn it around.

    Tris’s podcast is excellent. Jimmy tibbs was good on it.

    Made me chuckle when Jamie Moore was saying he was looking up at the shooter whilst lay, bleeding, and Tris said ‘was it Matthew Macklin’?

    Yeah Towers is huge. He still seems like a dangerous mofo even though he left that life behind.

    Excuse my lack of knowledge but what’s with Tower’s inactivity in the last few years since the Lucas Browne defeat? Did he officially retire? Is he just a sparring partner now?
