Gold medal winner Harry Garside on cutting through the BS in professional boxing, and how to find meaning among the masculinity

He won a bronze medal in Tokyo in 2020, and a gold two years before at the Commonwealth Games in the Gold Coast. He's a fiercely competitive boxer, but there's a lot more to Harry Garside than what you see in the ring. He's known for challenging stereotypes around masculinity and was a finalist on I’m A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here. He challenges stereotypes in our chat today in more ways than one. We had him on a year ago but a lot has changed since then. We find out what he's been up to, what's next, and how he approaches boxing's “trashy” culture and fake tough-guy act. We chat insanely long triathlons, identity, and what happens when your whole life has been built on winning. There’s camping detours, existential spirals, and deep explorations into masculinity (particularly among young men in Australia), purpose and why life might not actually be that serious, as one of Australia’s most fascinating athletes tries to figure out what comes next as he approaches 30.    Harvey Norman love sport.
