  • Amazing Kenyan woman from Food4Education

    I heard the most inspiring woman - Wawira was her name. What she achieves is absolutely incredible! To feed 60,000 children in Kenya per day is mind-blowing!! What the rest of us achieve for the human race pales in comparison to what her group is achieving. You couldn’t help but be inspired & challenged to do more. I think you were challenged, Graham too? These are the real heroes!!

  • Suggestion for guest.

    I really enjoy listening to your ‘conversations’.

    With the Paralympics fast approaching, I think Robyn Smith OAM , CEO of Sport Inclusion Australia and a member of the the International Paralympic Governing Board would be a timely guest. A true champion in her quest for more inclusive practices in sport, Robyn is tireless in her efforts in advocating for people with an intellectual disability to participate in sport at all levels.

  • Tricia and Daryl Hicks

    Cornesy, Tricia is the most wonderful lady ever. I have known the family since the 80s and love these two. She is so pure from the heart and when you hear her laugh, it makes me smile. Thank you so much for the podcast. NB - Daryl also ran for the seat of Makin in the 83 election. Great man.
