Setting the foundation for my podcast debut - 'In the Ring' with Trevor Shailer podcast. This podcast is focused on introducing me, my background, what you expect to get from my podcast, and I'm sure there will be lots of laughs along the way.
Trevor tells the story of Māori culture in action at the Athens Olympics 2004. From getting lost while doing a recon mission to the city, to connecting with a Māori fella from Whangarei who spotted my moko / tattoo on my arm while crossing the street.

I'm back in camp
Send us Fan Mail After a bit of a hiatus since my last episode - I'm back in camp (training camp) that is. Life, along with other things have been in the way since I last released a podcast.

I have relied on my core internal dialogue of 'who I am' or 'who I think I am' to get me to here, but now what? Support the show Kia ka...

Throwing in the Towel
Send a text This episode explores the idea of 'throwing in the towel' - your coach in the corner has the ability at any stage of the fight to throw in the towel. You don't actually see the towel come flying in over the ropes that often. I have used this metaphor to downplay what it is like to be in the ring - when you are only ever seconds away from success or disaster. Support the show Kia kaha, kia maia, kia manawanui

Making a Comeback
Send a text This episode talks about 'Making a Comeback'. Why do boxers retire and then feel the need to get back in the ring. Well - that's just what I did. Was it a successful comeback?

Give yourself an uppercut
Send a text The culture of New Zealand Boxing has been toxic for years. Yes, there has been some success, but many athletes carry regret and have left the sport altogether due to selection, bullying, unprofessional behaviour, etc. We can focus on the current coach in the media, but the truth is, he is just one in a long line of poor coaches. When will something ever be done about it? I would suggest a few uppercuts be handed out, which is boxing-speak for 'fall on their sword.' I give first-h...

Starting is the hardest thing to do!
