How do you only have 7k subscribers? You’ve had some of the biggest Aussie names on your pod, and you’re great at interviewing. Baffled

[@Gematrinator]

Maybe he isnt part of the cult

[@jaycee571]

Could listen to Tai all day, honest real and a no bullshit trustworthy bloke. Getting some great guests on Mark, poddy is getting better each episode. Try to ask more open questions, sometimes you talk a bit to long and finish with a closed question.

[@ChrisChambersTv]

marks a proper OG, helping and giving back to the community.

[@benryan8713]

two blokes cut from the same cloth, polar opposites in a lot of peoples eyes but both are as genuine and down to earth as they come.

[@jordowhite1604]

Hey Mark l may not have the pro fithan most of your guest but fuck mate l have a story to tell l hope you reply plz consider my request thanks Mark l will give u a great conversation

[@ytherenounicorns5077]

Brilliant.

[@Tani-wd2yc]

I really think Tai would have done well in Heavyweight Boxing 🥊. He’s got the age and heavy hands plus boxing pays a lot too.

[@scribble3478]

It takes a lot more than heavy punches to make it in the HW boxing scene. I don't think Tai has great footwork or head movement to mix it in the top levels of HW boxing. He has that dog in him and heart though. Even now at this late stage and after so many losses Chisora would ko him.

[@Gematrinator]

Is tai’s mum still around?
