Inside the Last Tent Boxing Show on Earth

In this episode of The StickyBeak, I head to Nambour, a town on the Sunshine Coast in Queensland to experience Fred Brophy’s Boxing Troupe — the last tent boxing show in the world. Part documentary, part personal adventure, this story explores the gritty history of tent boxing, Fred’s carnival upbringing, and what really happens inside a travelling boxing tent.With real audio from inside the tent and reflections from the night, this episode captures a uniquely Australian tradition that won’t be around for much longer. Take a ringside seat and step into a fading piece of Australian history. This episode was brought to you by Tüt, toilet lid stickers to zhuzh up your toot.
