Podcasts about True Blue

This week, the boys discuss the usual suspects — MLB and POG Corner ™️— but also discuss America's True Blue hero, Prop 25, the US Air Guitar Championship on ESPN 8 the Ocho, and a possible 2025 Zilly Awards.

Interview by Angela CroudaceAustralian metalcore powerhouse Make Them Suffer are riding high in 2025 with a prestigious APRA Music Award nomination—an accolade that has vocalist and keyboardist Alex Reade feeling a well-earned sense of pride.“When we found out about the nomination, we weren't sure what it meant at first,” Reade admits. “But once we did our research, we realized—this is something we've worked so hard for. After everything we've put into the last three years, the grind of touring, this kind of recognition really matters.”The category for Most Performed Heard Rock/Heavy Metal Work was taken out in 2024's inaugural year by Parkway Drive and is something that Reade sees as a major step forward for the genre and its diverse artists. “It's so good to see not only heavy music being acknowledged, but also the visibility of women within it,” she says. “We're reaching a point where it's just normal. It's respected.”Reade joined Make Them Suffer ahead of their 2023 self-titled album, which she calls a “dipping of toes” into the band's true potential. “This album showed what the band is capable of, but I don't think people have seen anything yet,” she says. “The next chapter is going to be something really special.”The band's evolution—from COVID-era uncertainty to global tours and packed venues—has forged a new, galvanized identity. “There was a time when no one knew if we'd keep going,” Reade reflects. “But the response to Doomswitch and this new chapter has been massive. We're solid now. We're a team.”With an 18-date regional Australian tour lined up, including stops in less-frequented towns like Narre Warren and Forster, the band is embracing their roots. “This tour feels like a celebration of Australia,” Reade says. “We're bringing the full heavy energy but in a way that's more intimate, more connected.”With Justice for the Damned and The Gloom in the Corner joining the run, Reade promises one thing: “It's gonna be heavy. And it's gonna be fun.”Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/heavy-music-interviews--2687660/support.

On Todays podcast, I speak with an Australian Army 1 RAR / 2 Cav veteran. This is a story of the tenacity of Linton "HARRY" Harris, joining the army not once but twice, in his quest for purpose. Harry's 1st term of service included deployment to Somalia, Africa, as a 19-year-old. Re-enlisting after a 7-year break, Harry's 2nd term of service included 2 tours to Iraq, resulting in the awarding of the Commendation for Distinguished Service. After service, seeking the quest for a purpose that is often an issue for Veterans, Harry rose to the position of VP of the Tasmanian RSL, only to be betrayed by that organisation, while fighting for the plight of a homeless veteran, leading to a mental breakdown, and suicidal ideation, due to the RSLs treachery. An incredible story that goes to show you don't have to be in special forces to serve at the pointiest end. Presenter: Adam Blum Guest: Linton “Harry” Harris Editor: Kyle Watkins

On this week's podcast, I speak with Ashley Semmens. Ashley spent 18 years in the Australian Navy, enlisting in 2005 into the direct entry program as a Clearance Diver. Ashley deployed multiple times, which included Op Resolute Border Security, OP Manitou, a human remains recovery in Tongan deep waters, and two deployments to Afghanistan on OP Slipper providing Explosive Ordinance Disposal (EOD) Reconnaissance to the Infantry combat team whilst on patrol in Afghanistan and during the withdrawal of Afghanistan in 2021.  In 2022, he was medically discharged at the rank of Chief Petty Officer, now he volunteers his time to the Clearance DiverTrust. Clearance Divers (CDs) are the Australian Defence Forces' specialist divers. CD tasks include specialist diving missions to depths of 54 metres, surface and underwater demolitions, and the rendering safe and disposal of conventional explosive ordnance and improvised explosive devices. Ash is about to take on his toughest challenge yet, he has set his sights on becoming the first person to swim the English Channel — in a peculiar backwards manner. To achieve the record, Ashley will need to swim on his back for more than 15 hours, not in a traditional backstroke, but dolphin kicking while facing the sky, with minimal use of his arms. He said preparing for the 34.2-kilometre swim was as much mental as physical. The kicking is effectively how I would work in my previous profession, he said. But as a clearance diver, I will be taking mental resilience into the swim. The channel swim is set for June 2025 and aims to raise money for the Navy Clearance Divers Trust. Good luck, Ash, you got this! This is a raw story owning all your faults and redemption!

From Old Man Emu to True Blue and Beyond, John Williamson has been sharing the stories of Australia for 55 years. Williamson is marking the milestone with a national farewell tour and a brand new album, How Many Songs. John Williamson told Peter Fegan on 4BC Breakfast, "I just figure I'm the luckiest person in the world to live in this country, for a start and to have the talent to write songs and actually sing them."

On today's podcast, I speak with Shane Cav 3RAR and 2nd Commando Regiment veteran. Shane Cav is a veteran of the Australian Defence Force serving 17 years, enlisting into the infantry in 2006. Post training, he was posted as a paratrooper to the 3rd Battalion Royal Australian Regiment. During his time at 3RAR, Shane deployed to Timor Leste and Afghanistan. In 2011 Shane completed selection and training in the 2nd Commando Regiment to become a qualified special forces operator. Shane deployed on multiple operations as an infantryman and special forces operator, including Timor Lest, Afghanistan, and Iraq. After losing mates on deployments, Shane lost his way after leaving the Army, Shane came to a crossroads in life. At the fear of losing everything, Shane found his faith again, and with the support of his wife and kids, he found purpose after service.     Presenter: Adam Blum Guest: Shane Cav Editor: Kyle Watkins

In the summer of 1985, Sean Penn's marriage to preeminent material girl Madonna was an epochal moment for ‘80s-era Hollywood. The bad boy from Bad Boys and the boy-toy pop superstar blissfully brought together the worlds of movies and music on a Malibu bluff overlooking the Pacific. But their subsequent attempt to make a movie together was anything but blissful. A wild film shoot in China would lead to even wilder things, like the time Sean dangled a photographer upside-down from a ninth-story balcony. Or the time he escaped a prison in Macau and had to have a pardon from the government negotiated by a former member of the Beatles. Or the time he spent in an American prison, where he found himself passing notes with a fellow inmate down the hall…one who happened to be one of the most notorious serial killers in history.

Joe Royle – the only living person to achieve legendary status at Everton as both a player and manager (the other being the late, great Howard Kendall) – invites Chris Beesley to his house for a special episode of Goodison Park: My Home. Royle, who grew up in Norris Green, attending Ranworth Square Primary School before going on to Quarry Bank High School where he developed into a talented all-round sportsman, also excelling in the high jump and swimming, became Everton's youngest-ever player at the time when he was controversially picked ahead of ‘The Golden Vision' Alex Young by Harry Catterick to make his debut at Blackpool aged 16 years and 282 days on January 15, 1966, a record that stood for over 42 years until it was eclipsed by Jose Baxter. Although Royle was part of the Blues team that lost 1-0 after extra time to West Bromwich Albion in the 1968 FA Cup final, alongside the ‘Holy Trinity' midfield of Kendall, Colin Harvey and Alan Ball, plus the likes of captain Brian Labone, goalkeeper Gordon West, fellow Scouser Tommy Wright and his good friend John Hurst, he was top scorer in Everton's 1969/70 League Championship-winning side. Once reaching 29 goals in all competitions in 1968/69, by the time Royle's Everton career had finished, he had netted more times for the club (119) than any player since Dixie Dean. Returning to Goodison Park as manager in November 1994 with the team bottom of the Premier League, he saved the Blues from relegation while also becoming the only manager in Everton history to win a trophy in his first season in charge. Some 30 years on, Royle remains the last Everton manager to secure major silverware for the club, while the following campaign (1995/96), he steered them to sixth place, which was their only top-half finish in the first decade of the Premier League. Now 75, he explains how the circumstances behind his departure continue to perplex him but as a True Blue, he was delighted to return to the Goodison hot seat for one last time as caretaker boss alongside his former player David Unsworth against Norwich City in 2016.

On this week's podcast, I speak with former UK 3 Para and current UK Firefighter Andy Williams.  Despite a turbulent upbringing, Andy enlisted in the Parachute Regiment at just 16. Deployed to the deadly frontlines of Helmand Province, Afghanistan, in 2006, he confronted the brutal realities of warfare, engaging in some of the most intense combat witnessed by the British Army since the Korean War. After his military service, Andrew transitioned into domestic counter-intelligence and spent over a decade as a high-risk security consultant, navigating some of the world's most dangerous and unpredictable environments. These harrowing experiences forced him to face not only the physical dangers around him but also the deep, often unseen, psychological scars left by war. Beyond The Drop Zone, takes you on a gripping journey from patrolling the streets of Northern Ireland to war-torn Iraq, coming face to face with ISIS, and engaging in fierce battles in Afghanistan with 3 PARA. This raw and unflinching memoir reveals the psychological toll of combat, Andrew's struggles with mental health, and his fight against a life-threatening illness. It is a powerful account of overcoming immense adversity, finding a path to healing, and discovering the strength of perseverance. Andy is a best-selling author and is passionate about helping veterans' transition and advocates for mental health awareness for veterans and first responders. This is his story, told in his own words.   Presenter: Adam Blum Guest: Andy Williams Editor: Kyle Watkins

In this episode of the True Blue Podcast, we chat with Cst. Warren Sherman a 13 year veteran of VicPD.  Warren was Jamaican born and raised before moving the Florida to finish high school and then attend Wake Forest University on an athletic scholarship.  Warren did some modelling and then acting in a Jamaican soap opera after graduating university.  He also worked in the private security industry in Jamaica.  Warren talks about wanting to be a police officer for much of his life but was hesitant to do so in his home country.  He eventually decided to move his family to Victoria and start a new life in policing at age 39.Warren is currently working in the General Investigation Section as one of the Missing Persons coordinators.  He believes police work is a very important and rewarding career and certainly recommends that young people of colour consider the job if they're interested. Royal Palm Estate – Andre Lawson played by Warren ShermanRoyal Palm Estate (along with its spin-off, The Blackburns) is the longest-running television series in Jamaican history, and possibly the Caribbean's. It was a staple in Jamaican homes on a Sunday night from 1994 until 2015. Sound editing done by Todd Mason.More about the Victoria City Police Union (VCPU): - Tweet us at https://twitter.com/VicPD_Union - Follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/vicpd_union/ - Find us on FaceBook at https://www.facebook.com/truebluevictoria/ - Visit our website for information at https://truebluevic.ca/ - Email us at media@vcpu.ca for any media inquiries or requests to be on the True Blue Podcast

We start out Season 5 of the True Blue Podcast talking with Constable Ari Knazan an 11 year veteran of VicPD.  Ari was hired a little later in life compared to the average recruit but obviously that meant he brought a breadth of life experiences with him to the job.  He has a couple of great stories behind his motivation for becoming a police officer.  Victoria Police was the only department that he applied for and loved that he got hired in the city he lived and played in. Ari worked in Patrol for the first 7 years of his career, was a Domestic Violence investigator in support of Patrol before moving to the General Investigation Section (GIS).  He's now back in Patrol and looks forward to some Field Training of rookie officers and some acting Patrol Sergeant duties.  Ari's Martial Arts background allows him to be part of the Department's Use of Force training cadre, which he does as a secondary duty.Ari met Chuck Norris in Las Vegas when he was 9 years old, and he says that encounter became his motivation for getting into martial arts training.  One of Ari's hobbies is podcasting; he and Chad Lyman run the “No Zoo Lions Podcast” (available on Spotify) where they focus on motivations for law enforcement officers to train hard and to understand the best ways to gain compliance.  He also is a co-founder of the Invictus LEO organization with Jason Rebsch and they also use the podcast platform to better inform law enforcement.  (please check out the links added below)https://nozoolions.com/https://invictusleo.com/invictus-podcast   Sound editing done by Todd Mason.More about the Victoria City Police Union (VCPU): - Tweet us at https://twitter.com/VicPD_Union - Follow us on Instagram at https://www.instagram.com/vicpd_union/ - Find us on FaceBook at https://www.facebook.com/truebluevictoria/ - Visit our website for information at https://truebluevic.ca/ - Email us at media@vcpu.ca for any media inquiries or requests to be on the True Blue Podcast

John Conte Live on Game Changers With Vicki Abelson What crazy fun to sit down with my old dear friend, bassist John Conte, whom I hadn't seen in decades. How is it possible that he appears to have aged barely a day? Seriously! John took us back to childhood days, his jazz-singing mother, Rosemary, his early days on guitar, and his brother Steve at first on drums. Their first band when John was 8 or 9, their early songwriting, including John's first song, Maryanne, Sittin on a Log, which he gave us a little taste of. He was a boy with a dream of playing arenas with rock stars. He told us how they flipped instruments, with John choosing bass. His college days, jazz-infused, where he gigged around with stellar players like Terence Blanchard. We tripped down memory lane, where we met, in the md-80s at The Rock 'n Roll Cafe on Bleecker Street, 1/2 of The Brothers of Conte, as I affectionately came to call them, with his brother Steve, they were weekly regulars whenever their schedules allowed. John was in Blood, Sweat & Tears, his first major gig, at the time, and told us all about that. Great stories there, including playing Madison Square Garden. Not bad for a 23-year-old. During their tenure at the Rock 'N Roll, late one rainy night they brought in their friend, Phoebe Snow, a life changer for me who had been a diehard fan since high school. The Phoeb's and I became fast friends, and I have the boys to thank for that as well as for years of amazing live music there, and at Spo-dee-o-dee's, Woody's, RockGirl, The Marquee, The Cafe Wha, True Blue and The China Club, where they were also a part of my RockGirl Jam Band. A stellar bassist, with an easy temperament and oh so easy on the eyes, it was always a joy when John was around. I made him tell his requisite Chuck Berry story. At that same time, the Conte brothers, as part of The Hudson River Rats, were laying the foundation for much of the session and road work that was to follow. Like Finding himself in the studio with Tony Visconti and David Bowie. John's description of hearing Bowie vocalize in his ear gave me goosebumps. He talked about laying down tracks with Peter Wolf and Ian Hunter, getting to jam with loads of his heroes. The Conte Brothers connected with Kyf Brewer and Company of Wolves were borne. They did some showcases, got signed, did a tour with Richard Marx, and foreshadowed John's future, one with Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes. John talked us through touring with Joan Osbourne (beautiful words here), Roseanne Cash, and Southside Johnny choosing him in 2007, a gig that would take him through to present day. There was a short tour with Billy Joel during his 2012 comeback with our friend, Tommy Byrnes, lovely to hear John's take on it, and great stories about his tenure playing with The Disciples of Soul, the house band for the American Music Honors where he got to play with honorees, Jackson Browne, Mavis Staples, John Mellencamp and Dion, as well as host, Bruce Springsteen and Steven Van Zandt. John's shared the stage with Bruce numerous times before, memorably for an impromptu 45-minute set with Southside. John's recounting of that and of playing with Peter Frampton (and Sheryl Crow) at the Sandy Hook Promise Benefit is another moving, goosebump-inducing tale. I loved every single second with my old friend. It's thrilling to see how his life has played and continues to play out. The young boy living his dream. Southside Johnyy's future may be unsure, but John's certainly isn't. He's always got multiple projects cooking, his own music in the works - check him out here johnconte.bandcamp.com and here Facebook.com/johncontebass I just adore the boy. He'll always be a rockboy to me and damn, he sure still looks like one.

True Blue Conversations is inclusive of all stories, this weeks guest had a controversial policing career not by her choosing. Deborah Locke, a former Detective served 12 years with the NSW police. She began in 1984 as a trainee at the Redfern Police Academy and concluded her service in 1996 when she was discharged from the service and deemed “medically unfit” as a result of workplace victimization and harassment as an internal witness, more commonly referred to as a “whistleblower.” During her time in the NSW Police Force, she was stationed at various commands including the notorious Kings Cross Undercover Drug Unit, the Gaming Squad, Parramatta Detectives, and the Fraud Squad. In 1989 Deborah received a Commissioners Commendation for bravery in relation to her undercover work. As a young city detective in the early 1980s to mid-1990s, she was exposed to the reality of criminal investigation in a major city. That reality was the widespread police corruption which involved detectives freely associating with high-profile members of Sydney's underworld. The police with whom she was working, were involved with accepting bribes, protection money, drug trafficking, fraud, and the improper use of confidential information, but to name a few. When she presented the senior officers of Internal Affairs and subsequently the highest levels of the Police Force with compelling evidence of what she had observed, she was branded a “whistleblower” and placed her life at risk. Since leaving the police she has been involved in developing and advocating for services for families of people with disabilities, she is the author of WATCHING THE DETECTIVES.

The discussion focuses on three exciting Cardinals prospects: JJ Wetherholt, Quinn Matthews, and Tink Hence. Wetherholt's offensive brilliance and rapid progression could lead to a major league debut this season, while Matthews, a standout Stanford pitcher, could soon join the big leagues with his strikeout prowess. Tink Hence is highlighted for his electric arm and potential versatility as both a starter and closer. Wheeler delves into how these young talents could shape the Cardinals' future pitching staff. Coach Josh Schertz joins Joe Pott to analyze the St. Louis University Billikens' tough loss to George Washington, where the team battled back from a 16-point deficit. Schertz reflects on senior Gibson Jimerson's leadership and loyalty, which have been crucial for the Billikens' success. As the team looks ahead to critical games against VCU, Dayton, and UMass, Schertz stresses the importance of mental toughness and fan support in their playoff push.

In our first Goodison Park: My Home interview published in 2025 – the year Everton finally depart the Grand Old Lady – we speak to the Blues' favourite Yorkshireman Ian Snodin.  Despite hailing from the other side of the Pennines, ‘Snods' as he is affectionately known by Evertonians, became a True Blue and adored by the Goodison fanbase when snubbed Liverpool's Kenny Dalglish to accept Howard Kendall's offer to join the club in 1987. Ian's decision was vindicated as he was rewarded with a League Championship medal in his first season on Merseyside and his hilarious tale about what happened to him on the way home from that title success clinched at Norwich City is worth watching the interview alone!  He also speaks candidly about his upbringing in a mining community, his formative years in the game playing alongside his elder brother Glynn at Doncaster Rovers and the influence that Billy Bremner had on him both there and at Leeds United plus the varied role he now plays as an ambassador for Everton Football Club.

Welcome to the DMF. Where I try to find out what motivates people behind the scenes in the world of acting and entertainment. Today on the podcast I am talking to podcaster: Eddie Green. It's questions time. As always you can reach me on Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook with my name Justin Younts. Thank you for listening and sit back and enjoy. Welcome to the DMF. I'm Justin Younts. Today, I want to share with you my morning routine, which has been a game changer for how I start my day. Lately, my routine begins with a hot shower. I know some people find it makes them sleepier, but for me, it's the perfect way to wake up and get energized for the day ahead. I've tried the cold plunge thing, but honestly, it's just not for me. I prefer the comfort of a hot shower to kickstart my morning. In this episode, I also dive into my nighttime routine, which might sound a bit unusual. I often find myself unwinding by watching episodes of Chris Hansen's show on his streaming network, True Blue. It's fascinating to see how he catches predators, and I find it oddly comforting to watch before bed. I know some might think it's strange to go to sleep with that on my mind, but it works for me! I also touch on my struggles with meditation. I wish I could meditate effectively, but I find it hard to sit still and focus. However, I've learned that there are ways to meditate while being fidgety, which I'm excited to explore further.  Additionally, I share my reading habits, or lack thereof, and my love for the book 'The Disaster Artist.' It's the only book I've read cover to cover, and I was emotionally attached to it. I also discuss my current music favorites and the podcasts I'm listening to, including Chris Hansen's podcast, 'Predators I've Caught.'  Join me as I explore these routines and habits that shape my daily life. I hope to inspire you to find what works best for you in your morning and nighttime routines. Let's make every day count together! 00:00:00 - Introduction 00:00:16 - Beginning of the day routine 00:00:16 - Meditation 00:01:31 - Nighttime routine 00:10:03 - Reading habits 00:10:03 - Listening habits 00:10:03 - Current watchlist 00:11:24 - Conclusion

Jon Wright runs a 700-head cattle and breeding operation at his property, "Coota Park", on the edge of the Lachlan Valley. Jon developed a high-efficiency composite cattle line, Blue-E, almost 30 years ago using a Shorthorn Angus cross and refining the line over time. In this episode, Jon walks through his beef and cattle journey and how working on a research station in his early career influences how he operates his farm. He digs into how he developed the Blue-E line and how monitoring individual animal feed intake and production efficiency has led to his line being considered the most feed-efficient herd in the world. Local Land Services Mixed Farming Officer, Claudia Hinrichsen, caught up with Jon at “Coota Park" to learn more about his Blue-E cattle. This episode is part one of our two-part chat with Jon.

On this weeks podcast, I speak with NSW Rural Fire Service Area Commander Southwestern Chief Superintendent Kelwyn White. Kelwyn commenced her service with the NSW Rural Fire Service in 2002 and, since then has worked across NSW in District, State, and Area-based roles. Kelwyn has been both a salaried officer and a volunteer during her service. Kelwyn's commitment, especially in Community Risk & Community Engagement, is held in the highest regard by her peers and the community. Kelwyn continues to be a proud advocate for engaged communities, playing a significant leadership and mentoring role in this field to NSW RFS membership and the community. Kelwyn is passionate about sharing her knowledge to help others achieve their desired outcomes, as a keen advocate for training, she gives her time to develop others. When Kelwyn commenced with the RFS, she started in administration and has worked her way through the ranks to be one of the 7 Area Commanders and, currently the only female in this role.  During this time, Kelwyn has been fortunate to see the evolution in the way women are seen and operate within the RFS and is proud to have been a part of that.  Yet knowing that, there is more to come and is proud to be in a position to support, encourage and mentor women to develop into leadership roles, or simply be the best version of themselves they can be within emergency service or their own lives. As the Area Commander for the Southwestern Area, Kelwyn is responsible for the coordinated fire-fighting arrangements across the Area, including mitigation of bushfire risks to the community through strategic organisational programs to reduce risk to the community from bushfire and other emergencies and ensuring communities are engaged, prepared and warned appropriately before and during an emergency.

Director Imogen McCluskey continues her exploration of suburban Australia with the comedy-drama film Nugget is Dead: A Christmas Story. This delightfully relatable Aussie Xmas tale was written by Jenna Owen and Vic Zerbst, who both act in the film alongside Aussie screen legends like Gia Carides, Damien Garvey, Ed Oxenbould, Steve Rodgers, Mandy McElhinney, Kerry Armstrong, and Tiriel Mora, and more.Steph Stool is a dermatologist in training who has her feet in two worlds. The shiny sheen of Sydney where the pull of her bougie boyf (Alec Snow) sees her drawn towards spending Christmas with his family. Early in the film we meet his mum (Tara Morice) who gives Steph the complicated and intense rundown of what's expected from their family experience. For them, Christmas will be the 'introduce the family to the girlfriend', a factor that further drives a wedge between Steph and her family who she carries a level of shame about.But, Steph's disconnection with home is short lived when she receives a call from her mum (Gia Carides) saying that the family dog, Nugget, is dead. Well, not exactly dead, he's just not feeling that well. Not wanting to miss seeing the pup she grew up with one last time, Steph rushes home to be with her family, all the while thinking she'll be able to return in time for her boyfriends Christmas.What follows is a rapturously delightful and utterly joyous celebration of Australian Xmas, full of a deep reverence for the tackiness of the tinsel strewn households, replete with a Coles bought pavlova and overburnt sausages on the barbecue. There's an emotional honesty and warmth to Nugget is Dead that is found in Imogen's first feature film, 2019's Suburban Wildlife, a narrative that explored the pressing disconnect that younger generations face when they want to seek a life out of the suburbs and in the city where they can grow.That concern is within Nugget is Dead, but it's presented in such a deeply relatable and enjoyable manner that, by the time the climax arrives, you're not completely aware that you're shedding tears of joy and sadness at once.As you'll hear in the following interview with Imogen, I loved this film a lot, and particularly enjoy experiencing the work of Imogen McCluskey and seeing how her perspective on Australia grows and changes on screen. Throughout the conversation, we chat about working alongside actors who are also the writers of the film, what her time at the AFI Directors Conservatory taught her as a filmmaker, and what she hopes audiences will get from watching Nugget is Dead together.Nugget is Dead: A Christmas Story launches on Stan. on 21 November 2024. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this weeks podcast, I spoke with Australian barrister & Public Prosecutor now defence lawyer Margaret Cunneen SC. For over four decades, Margaret Cunneen helped put away some of Australia's worst, as a crown prosecutor and, as her profile grew, so did the media attention, Margaret recalls the headline cases that helped establish her reputation, the controversies she became embroiled in. In 2022 Margaret published her autobiography “ The Boxing Butterfly” A Life Of Conviction is a career chronicle of Margaret Cunneen SC—the boxing butterfly who turned the tables on ICAC, amidst prosecuting murderers, pedophiles and rapists—as she launches into her new chapter as a defence barrister. In her rearview mirror, Cunneen sees her trial successes—her convictions—interspersed with the flak from the ground fire of some colleagues who resented her success and were determined to stop her climb to greater heights. She regrets nothing and is satisfied with what she does. As Madam Crown, she empathised with the victims and their families. Now, as defence counsel, she empathises with the accused she defends. And what stories she tells! Some are gruesome and confronting, such as prosecuting the irreverent Skafs for gang rape, Robert ‘Dolly' Dunn for pedophilia, the Butcher of Bega for unspeakable medical malpractice and the Charbaji Brothers for an ice- fuelled torture session that ended in murder. Others—especially relating to her defence clients, are filled with humanity.  Margaret is a wife Mother and Grandmother loves her NRL and is a passionate Manly fan, she is deeply faithful we spoke about the many high-profile cases she has been involved with the toll of being in the public sector, and how Margaret dealt with some of the terrible cases she has worked on over the 45 years. This was a ripping chat. Presenter: Adam Blum Guest: Margaret Cunneen SC Editor: Kyle Watkins Investigative Consultant: Adam Holloway

(00:00) Weekend Golf Show Banter This chapter explores the diverse locations from which we've broadcast our show, highlighting the flexibility and reach afforded by the internet. From the PGA Show floor to various golf courses and hotel rooms, we've managed to bring you the latest in golf, no matter where we are. We also discuss the quirky intricacies of time zones, especially how certain regions in the U.S. have unique time-keeping practices due to historical and economic reasons. We wrap up by considering the challenges of autumn golf, specifically the issue of fallen leaves on courses, and muse about the idea of renting small leaf blowers for golf carts as a potential business venture. (11:22) Golf Courses and Memories This chapter takes us on a journey through memorable golf courses, starting with the excitement of listing those that are worth taking a day off for. We share a passion for fall golf, despite the cold, and explore the intersection of sports as football season competes for attention. We talk about the thrill of attending Indiana University football games, celebrating their strong performance, and how that experience ties into the world of golf with the impressive IU golf course. We highlight the transformation of the course into a challenging terrain with unique holes, such as a par three that requires a driver due to its uphill distance, and a deceptive downhill wedge shot to a green that slopes away. The chapter captures the essence of fall golf and sports enthusiasm, showcasing memorable golf experiences intertwined with the excitement of college football. (18:58) East Coast Unique Golf Courses This chapter takes listeners on a journey through some of the most unique and memorable golf courses around the world, beginning with the extreme 19th hole in South Africa, which requires a helicopter ride to a tee perched 650 feet above a green shaped like the African continent. We then explore a similarly challenging hole at the Gatlinburg Country Club, nestled in the picturesque landscape of eastern Tennessee. The conversation shifts to the scenic golf offerings in North Carolina, including Tobacco Road, a public course that provides an exhilarating experience with its expansive fairways and natural beauty. Designed by the visionary Mike Strantz, Tobacco Road is lauded for its creativity and challenge. Additionally, we highlight Strantz's other masterpieces, True Blue and Caledonia Golf and Fish Club in Myrtle Beach, each offering distinct and captivating golfing experiences. Throughout the chapter, we celebrate the diversity and excitement these courses offer, encouraging listeners to visit and experience them firsthand. (32:33) Unforgettable Golf Courses Across America This chapter shares intriguing tales from the golf course, including an unforgettable encounter at Fort Knox's Lindsay Golf Course where a golfer's ball strayed too close to the gold depository, prompting a stern warning from armed soldiers. We reflect on the foolish risks golfers sometimes take, like scaling fences for errant balls. Shifting focus, we invite listeners to explore our revamped website and share their golfing experiences and bucket list courses. We reminisce about remarkable golf courses, particularly those in Colorado's Vail Valley, such as the stunning Cordillera Summit and the picturesque public courses, Vail Golf Club and Eagle Ranch. These courses offer breathtaking views and memorable experiences, making them must-plays for any golf enthusiast.

On this week's episode I spoke with Western Australian Police Officer Kristi McVee, a former detective and specialist child interviewer, she spent years investigating child sexual abuse and prosecuting pedophiles. In this chat, she gets real about the scope of the problem and the challenges you face as a cop chasing down pedophiles. She spent 10 years in the police force before retiring from the force. When she retired, she believed there was a better way to help. By taking a proactive approach, rather than a reactive approach, she knew she could help prevent child abuse and break the cycle of trauma that victims are so often subjected to. She founded CAPE-AU (Child Abuse Prevention and Education) to provide an educational service for parents, caregivers, and guardians around child sexual abuse protection and prevention. She recently published her first book Operation KidSafe: A Detective's guide to Child Abuse Prevention and hosts The CAPE Podcast.  Presenter: Adam Blum Guest: Krisit McVee Editor: Kyle Watkins Investigative Consultant: Adam Holloway

Chris Beesley speaks to Anders Limpar, the man described by Everton's last trophy-winning manager Joe Royle as “A football genius” and “the most-talented player I ever worked with,” in the latest episode of Goodison Park: My Home. Despite hailing from Solna, on the edge of Sweden's capital city of Stockholm, Limpar, explains how he was actually a boyhood Blue with his affiliation with Everton going back much longer than his three-year playing stint with the club between 1994-97.  The 59-year-old, who had already been a League Championship winner with Arsenal before he came to Merseyside, speaks poignantly about his friendship with the late Kevin Campbell and also recalls the scramble for his signature when his time at Highbury came to an end. Limpar speaks candidly about his part in ‘The Great Escape' against Wimbledon, the change of manager from Mike Walker to Joe Royle, winning the FA Cup against Alex Ferguson's Manchester United and his combination both on and off the field with fellow winger Andrei Kanchelskis who inadvertently helped him to learn Russian. It's another generous portion of True Blue nostalgia with our 10th guest so far as we celebrate the final season of ‘The Grand Old Lady' with one of her greatest mercurial talents.
