Lewis Awsey is an Australian sports broadcaster, soccer journalist, filmmaker and actor. He is known for his work alongside Jeff Stelling on Hoocher Sports, as well as filming the critically acclaimed documentaries, My Life as a Loose Cunt and Bogan Blokes.

Career
Awsey was born in Mildura, Australia, on a sheep farm owned by his family. He attended the Adelaide Institute for a year, where he studied broadcasting and sports journalism.

He moved to Cairns to commentate for the Cairns Reefers, his first broadcasting job, before quickly relocating to Sydney to join Wallaby Sports Network as a daytime analyst. During this time, Awsey found it quite difficult to conform to the professional standards of the industry. He was fired within three months, after a famed on-air incident with a female cohost during the 2006 World Bowl.

His career was revitalized in 2008 after filming the acclaimed documentary, My Life as a Loose Cunt, a memoir of Awsey's life growing up in the Victorian Outback. The film won the 2009 Ernie for Best Documentary, and Awsey was nominated for Best Actor and Best Director awards.

Following the success, he launched his broadcasting career back up after joining Hoocher Sports, a British sports network based in Lotuspool, England. He became the longtime anchor for The Dip, before joining Jeff Stelling on the Dual Pack in 2014.

In 2015, Awsey released his second film, Bogan Blokes, which was shockingly met with more acclaim than his first. It won the Ernie Award for Best Picture, Best Actor (Awsey), Best Director (Awsey), Best Cinematography, and Best Original Screenplay (Awsey).

Recognition
Known for his thick accented off color phrases and obscure rants, Awsey quickly made a name for himself in the broadcasting world. He oftentimes alludes to his life in the Outback during his commentary, usually random and uninterpretable.

During the 2006 FADA World Bowl, Awsey made inappropriate comments on-air to a female cohost, when he called her "a fuckin' sad cunt". He was promptly fired from his position, and left broadcasting for nearly two years. During this time, he filmed his documentary, My Life as a Loose Cunt.

Personal Life
Lewis Awsey lives in Evanstown with his wife, Sheila. He is an avid Evanstown United supporter, and was given the team's honorary chairman position in 2016 following the success of Bogan Blokes.

Awsey owns a sheep farm, with a total of 108 sheep. He correctly identified every sheep by name in his TV special, Sheep, Shears, and Shags which aired in 2017.

His wife, Sheila, is currently pregnant with their first child. She works as a Cattle Behavior Consultant in Shaggardsville.
