  • A fellow lover of rural stories and one of my greatest friends, Ali Smith

    A fellow lover of rural stories and one of my greatest friends, Ali Smith
    Apr 1 2026
    After more than 100 episodes of Company this is the FINAL EPISODE. I will *miss* the privilege of stepping into the lives of ordinary and extraordinary rural women in such an intimate way. But chapters end and that's what's happening here. It seems fitting to have Ali Smith - one of my greatest friends - as my final guest. She really does embody all I love about storytelling in rural Australia. She's bubbly and unbelievable generous in every role she's ever turned her hand to, she's endlessly thoughtful and respectful and despite all this she would never want any fanfare or grand accolades. Ali grew up in the city both Canberra and Sydney but she LOVES rural people and their lives , and thats perfect because she now lives on a farm with her partner Gus at Burren Junction in northern New South Wales. Gosh that community is lucky to have her as a journalist for the local paper. They're lucky because - many would never know the depths of her experience as a journo. She's worked for Laurie Oakes - one of the greatest political journalists Australia has known. During her 8 years with 60 minutes - another of Australia's greatest current affairs shows -she spend hours and hours beside Turia Pitt as she recovered from her horrific burns - a person she now remains very special friends with. She's also an author - last year she co-authored Outback Astronomer with Liz Hayes from 60 minutes. Smith to me is the antithesis of integrity in every avenue of life. I'm really lucky to be able to call her one of my closest friends. I'm so happy to be celebrating all her achievements here and I hope you enjoy it too.

  • The unique power of rural stories in filmaking with Sascha Estens

    The unique power of rural stories in filmaking with Sascha Estens
    Mar 11 2026
    Sascha Estens is a film maker living in Moree and working all over Australia. Chances are if you come across a short film that has anything to do with rural Australia that really grabs you then its come from her film production business Rabbit Hop Films. She's had a super cool life, which twists and turns all over the place and all over the globe. She's always wanted to do film, but I guess she took a while to find her confidence in it as a viable business - so she's had many other different adventures along the way. She certainly has a creative whimsical heir about her - even through the microphone. Rural Australia is lucky to have people like Sasha - who have experienced so many wide and varied versions of life in so many different places with so many different people - the quantum of that is such a valuable perspective on how unique and world-class Australia Ag and its people are.

  • On Endings with me and Cressida Cains

    On Endings with me and Cressida Cains
    Mar 4 2026
    I know it's been a while. The end of 2025 was Tumultuous for me, with a capital T. Of late I’ve become a full time farmer. Previously I was a farming sous chef, well actually not really I was really a mother, enabling the proper farmer to do their work while I did some part time work and kept the home fires burning - they are no longer farming so I am - and the mothering well that continues too. So it’s time for my world to get a bit smaller, before it hopefully gets big again. This will be the final season of Company. I started this podcast 6 years ago and have interviewed over 100 guests 100 guests is a lot but it honestly feels more like 500 to me - because it feels like I have been interviewing extraordinary rural people for my whole working life - which I actually have through my ABC work, and with other various ag companies and government agencies and through my on stage work. Today's guest also has something to say about Endings. It's the lovely, gentle Cressida Cains who for the last 15 years has developed and run Pecora Dairy a sheep dairy and cheesery in Robertson in the NSW Southern Highlands. But Pecora Dairy is no longer. At the end of last year Cressida made the tough decision to close that chapter. I think, in Australia, there's a certain stigma attached to any family that decides to leave a farm, or sell up - it's so often viewed as a failure. But Cressida wants to say; that it's not a failure, and she hopes to be able to change the narrative - and say it's not a failure, it's brave - and its really important to recognise when it is time to stop, time to leave - rather than staying and staying and staying.
