Unloaded Awards 2025 | NIOA Unloaded Ep.13

Ladies and gentlemen… colleagues, critics, and confused bystanders — welcome to the most prestigious night in NIOA podcasting. Suits optional. Opinions mandatory. In this episode of NIOA Unloaded, we roll out the red carpet for the Unloaded Awards 2025 — celebrating the moments, people, products, and incidents that defined the year… for better or worse. From ideas that absolutely should not be repeated, to gear that genuinely raised the bar, and guests who somehow carried entire episodes while we nodded along — nothing (and no one) is safe from Academy judgement. Expect: 🏆 Awards nobody asked for but everyone earned 😬 Moments that caused mild panic… 🎙️ A look back at 2025’s highlights and a teaser of what’s coming in 2026 🎬 Dramatic build-ups, questionable decisions, and zero rehearsals So sit back, applaud politely, and remember — if your name gets called, this is legally binding and cannot be appealed. Welcome to the 1st Annual Unloaded Awards.

Ciao Perazzi | NIOA Unloaded Ep.12

In this episode of the NIOA Unloaded Podcast, NIOA’s newly appointed Perazzi Sports Sales Manager, Keith Grundy, and Gunsmith, Trevor Cook take you behind the scenes of their unforgettable trip to Italy, home of the legendary brand, Perazzi. From eating their way through some amazing (and a few questionable) local dishes, to mastering the art of driving on the wrong side of the road — the boys experience Italy the only way they know how: full throttle. Inside the Perazzi factory, they see firsthand how craftsmanship, precision, and passion have built a shotgun that’s claimed more Olympic gold medals than any other. And back home, they talk about the brand-new NIOA Perazzi Truck — now hitting events across Australia to keep Perazzi owners shooting at their best. So grab an espresso, buckle up, and join Matt, Brad, Keith and Trev for a trip filled with laughs, lessons, and a whole lot of Italian flair.

Chilly bin (feat. JE Wilds) | NIOA Unloaded Ep.11

In this episode of the NIOA Unloaded Podcast, we’re joined by New Zealand hunting and fishing legend JE Wilds — real name Joe Edlington — for an unfiltered deep dive into life in the wild and a few hilarious fails (yes, he accidentally called himself Australian on camera!). Joe takes us from fishing with his dad on NZ’s west coast to the massive growth of his outdoor YouTube empire — and the epic moments, epic hunts and fatherhood updates in between. So grab your gumboots, crack open a L&P and settle in for tales that hit harder than a jandal blowout mid-hunt.

The last showman (feat. Fred Brophy) | NIOA Unloaded Ep.10

In this episode, we sit down with the legendary Fred Brophy — tent boxing promoter, fourth-generation showman and the last of his kind. From Canberra to the Birdsville Races, Fred’s been dodging the law, fists and bullets all while keeping an Aussie tradition going longer than most of us have been alive. Funny, raw, and 100% Aussie – this is a MUST listen. You’ll hear: Fred's first sideshow, the "Mice Circus". The tale of the "Bad Brothers". Why after more than 40 years, his "wife" won't marry him. How he lost 2 of his fingers. Jump in the ring, hit play and ‘square up’ for a round with a true Aussie icon.
