Podcasts about Long Tan

In this episode of the Proper True Yarn Podcast, Beau Jones and Jordan Abbey Young break down the moment acting school stopped serving a purpose and real experience finally took over.The conversation centres on Beau's time filming Territory in the Northern Territory, and how different the environment was compared to his early work on productions like Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan. Where acting school drilled rules like “don't speak,” “don't stand out,” and “don't question anything,” Territory demanded the opposite.Instead of being told where to stand and when to die, Beau explains how he was asked real creative questions. What would your character wear? How would he act? What habits would he have? That shift marked a turning point from being a nervous extra to being trusted as part of the storytelling process.Filming at Tipperary Station amplified everything. Long days, isolation, a fully functioning cattle station still running around the production, and no escaping back to city comforts. Cast and crew lived together, drank together, and learned from each other, including time spent with experienced actors like Rob Taylor.The episode also dives into why the Northern Territory hasn't been boxed into a genre yet, and why Beau believes it should be treated like Australia's modern Wild West. Raw, rough, authentic, and still largely misunderstood on screen.As always, the yarn doesn't stay serious for long. Stories spiral into escaped zoo animals, pig hunters and pygmy hippos, stolen penguins, and a full-on altercation with a koala on North Stradbroke Island.It's an honest breakdown of confidence, creative growth, and the moment you realise school teaches rules, but sets teach reality.If you're into acting behind the scenes, Australian TV, Territory life, or hearing how careers actually get built, this episode delivers.Straight talk, real lessons, and classic Proper True Yarn chaos.#propertrueyarn

This episode of the Proper True Yarn Podcast brings two absolute weapons into the studio, Beau Jones and Jordan Abbey Young, for a long-form yarn about friendship, acting, and how careers sometimes start in the strangest possible ways.Both Beau and Jordan grew up as station kids in North Queensland and the Northern Territory, chasing an acting dream that confused their families and tested their commitment early. Their paths eventually crossed on the Gold Coast through short films, indie projects, and pure chaos, including the first time they properly met when one of them was literally playing a homeless bloke in a wheelie bin during a film shoot in Beenleigh.Beau talks about boarding school on the Gold Coast and studying acting at the New York Film Academy, before returning to Australia to grind through low-budget productions and short films. Jordan shares his own journey, bouncing between stations, sheds, couches, and castings while chasing opportunities wherever they appeared.The episode really opens up when the boys break down landing roles in Danger Close: The Battle of Long Tan, their first major professional acting job. They tell the full story of beating thousands of auditions, getting flown to Kingaroy, and immediately celebrating their “big break” by getting completely blind the night before a freezing early-morning call time.What follows is an all-time hangover yarn. Missed alarms, panic showers, vomiting into a backpack full of scripts and wardrobe, and still somehow surviving a full day of filming without getting sent home. It's funny, brutal, and painfully honest about how unforgiving the industry can be when you're just getting started.Beyond the chaos, the episode digs into shared rural values, persistence over polish, and what it means to back yourself without a safety net. It's about timing, luck, and finding your people along the way.If you're into Australian film stories, behind-the-scenes acting yarns, regional blokes chasing creative careers, or raw conversations about getting your first real break, this episode delivers.Loose, honest, and full of proper laughs. A proper true yarn about friendship, timing, and earning your shot.#propertrueyarn Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

As Australians commemorate Vietnam Veterans' Day on the anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan in 1966, Mark Levy has called for the government to solve the recognition drama involving our veterans. Levy spoke with RSL NSW State Secretary, Jeff O’Brien, as over 2,500 Australians and their families remain excluded from receiving their Vietnam Campaign Medal in an ongoing battle that leaves many struggling to be acknowledged.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dr Brendan Nelson was Liberal Party leader and Leader of the Opposition in Australia in 2007-08. After he retired from politics, he became Director of the Australian War Memorial, and has a masterly knack of sharing the stories of this country's military heroes. The feature speech here was delivered in 2014 at a Soldier On charity fundraiser. Tony's cohost for this episode, comedian and Utopia star Anthony 'Lehmo' Lehmann was MC that night, and watched in awe as Dr Nelson explained the significance of a George Lambert print and its special frame, and watched bidding rocket from $1000 to $40,000 immediately. Lehmo says it is the greatest speech he ever saw live. The original audio is not available but Dr Nelson told the story as part of his 'five most significant artifacts at the Australian War Memorial' section of his Howard Oration in 2021, and that audio is included.  There is also some beautiful singing at the end of this 50th episode of the podcast, by Private Ken Gant who was killed at the Battle of Long Tan, and recorded a song for his mother the day before he was deployed.  /If you enjoy Speakola please do one or more of the things that help poidcasts:  Tell someione; Rate or review us in iTunes, or support me financially.

U.S. and Australian forces have fought side-by-side in every major conflict since World War I, and some 60,000 Australian service members served in the Vietnam War. August 18 is Vietnam Veterans Day in Australia, and in honor of that commemoration we bring you the personal story of an Australian helicopter pilot who served in Vietnam in 1970 and '71.

John MacKenzie chats with General the Honourable Sir Peter Cosgrove AK AC (Mil) CVO MC (Retd) about Vietnam Veteran's Day and the Legacy Gala Dinner coming up on September 2nd this year. After a caller's suggestion, John proposed pairing the historical significance of the battle of Long Tan with the battle of Coral/Balmoral. Cyclone Larry was also remembered, as Sir Cosgrove headed the task force in 2006 that saw the cleanup of ravaged towns in Far North Queensland, in particular the town of Innisfail.

GUEST 1 OVERVIEW: Chris Merritt is Vice President of the Rule of Law Institute of Australia. GUEST 2 OVERVIEW: John Ruddick grew up in Tamworth and then spent two years working on an outback farm.

In 2018 he published "Make the Liberal Party Great Again" which was a blueprint on how to optimally democratise an Australian political party in the 21st century. In mid-2021 he joined the Liberal Democrats after his disappointment with the Morrison and Berejiklian governments and their over-reaction to COVID-19 and the associated government debt. John has written op-eds for most of Australia's leading newspapers and has appeared frequently on Sky News and occasionally on ABC. John and his wife run a mortgage broking business.

This mini ep takes a look at music royalty Col Joye and the Joy Boys and the time they had to hold the attention of an 8000 strong crowd waiting for Johnny Cash to arrive at the stadium. The band was at the very start of rock n roll in Australia and they are true pioneers. In this era, Col Joy and the Joye Boys popularity and chart success is only rivalled by that of Johnny O'Keefe and the Dee Jays. They also hold the distinction being the first Australian act to have a Number 1 record with Bye Bye Baby. You can hear more from Col in our episode on Bye Bye Baby which is episode 5 – there is also another mini ep on the time Col was playing for our troops at the Vietnam War, when suddenly he found himself at the Battle of Long Tan.

This mini episode is on Aria Hall of famer, Col Joye and the time he found his himself in Vietnam during the war and right smack in the middle of the Battle of Long Tan. For the full story of Col's experiences performing during the Vietnam War period check out episode 34.

As Delta Company, 6RAR move into the rubber plantation near Long Tan, 11 Platoon surprises a Vietnamese patrol and the first shots of the Battle are fired. With orders to chase the fleeing enemy, 11 Platoon unknowingly heads directly towards the North Vietnamese HQ. The next three hours would become an example of the best, and some of the worst, of the Australian military and their New Zealand comrades. Hosted on Acast.

With the newly established 1st Australian Task Force settled in to Nui Dat, work started on neutralising the Viet Cong activity in the area. The Viet Cong had other ideas. They wanted to draw out the Australians and engulf them with overwhelming numbers. Despite the mounting evidence, Brigadier Jackson didn't believe the North Vietnamese Army had arrived in Phuoc Tuy Province, even after a mortar attack was unleashed on the Task Force Base.

The Battle of Long Tan on August 18, 1966, took place in a rubber plantation near in the Phước Tuy Province, South Vietnam, between the Viet Cong and People's Army of Vietnam units and elements of the 1st Australian Task Force. 6PR Breakfast host Gareth Parker spoke to musician and Vietnam veteran Normie Rowe about how the war 60 years ago changed his life, as well as entertainer Denise Drysdale, who flew to Vietnam during the war to keep the spirit up of the Aussie troops. "I guess sliding doors - the upside is I've got mates that I don't think I would ever have had, people that I know I can trust my life to, but on the other hand I had a career that was starting to burgeon in the UK and internationally, and so I lost that. "So you know, upside and downside, but that's life." See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This film has been requested many times; usually by our Aussie and Kiwi listeners, and occasionally by people who think our podcast is entirely dedicated to this one film from 2019. Well-known down under, but not as much in the rest of the world, this is the story of one of the most famous battles Anzac troops fought in the Vietnam War. They were outnumbered between 10 and 20-to-1, and had it not been for their tactical decision-making, the fight could have had a very different outcome. We've done films “based on true events” (and people) many times before; how does this one compare to We Were Soldiers or The Outpost? Did they do justice to the real soldiers who fought in this battle? Join us on Danger Close: A War Film Podcast, and find out!

Writer and director Kriv Stenders joins the Cinema Australia Podcast to discuss his new documentary, Lee Kernaghan: Boy from the Bush. Stenders is carving out quite a niche for himself as a documentary filmmaker following very successful feature films like Red Dog and Danger Close: The Battle for Long Tan. Stenders' recent documentary work includes Slim & I, The Go Betweens: Right Here, and Brock: Over the Top. Here, Stenders discusses growing up around music, working with Lee Kernaghan, filming the energetic concert scenes, his passion for good storytelling, why he thinks Lee Kernaghan: Boy from the Bush is his most experimental film yet, and why documentary filmmaking is such an exciting medium right now.

Robert Egger's third film, following The VVitch (2015) and The Lighthouse (2019), The Northman has the largest budget and the biggest scope by far. Set in the late 9th/early 10th centuries in central Europe and Iceland, this epic revenge story is undoubtedly the most thoroughly researched and most accurate Viking film to date. With a phenomenal cast that includes Alexander Skarsgård, Nicole Kidman, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Ethan Hawke, the story goes all the way back to the Norse myths that inspired Shakespeare's Hamlet, and the meticulous production and costume design immerses you in a world from over 1000 years ago with flawless attention to detail. We debated for a bit whether this belonged on the Danger Close list as a war film, or whether the psychedelic feel and mythical elements pushed it over into our war adjacent film category for DCE. In the end, there is enough pillaging and conflict in this that we decided it qualified, and we wanted to give this episode the exposure it deserved. We are joined by special guest Dave for this one, as his background in HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts), and his knowledge of Viking history made him the perfect person to join our discussion. So, do we think Eggers pulled off this ambitious project, and did we like it? And just how accurate is it?
