Colby "Golden Boy” Thickenesse is a 23 year old professional MMA fighter, he trains out of Freestyle fighting gym under legendary head coach Joe Lopez. He caught me a little off-guard with his level of depth, sincerity and kindness. It was so inspiring to speak with a young man of his age who possesses such a high-level of discipline and self-belief.  He is a man with a dream who cultivates a champion mind-set in all aspects of his life. I really loved this conversation...
Enjoy!

You'll find a particular kind of honesty in the conversations on Terrible. Happy, a podcast that sounds like a late-night chat in a backyard after a long day at the skatepark. Host Shan sits down with a rotating cast of characters from the Australian skateboarding scene and beyond, but the talk rarely stays on just tricks and terrain. It naturally veers into the messy, funny, and deeply human stuff that happens off the board: the struggles with fitness, the odd jobs that pay the bills, the mental health ups and downs, and the pure, alternative comedy of everyday life. This isn't a polished production; it's the raw audio of community, capturing the specific voices and stories that make this culture tick. Listeners will hear genuine interviews that feel more like catching up with an old mate, punctuated by the occasional chaos of THT Radio segments. It’s about finding the connection and the laughter in the grind, whether that's on four wheels or just trying to get through the week. The result is a uniquely Australian show that’s less about sports commentary and more about the shared, sometimes terrible, often happy reality of the people within it.
