In this episode of Call A Mate, we dive into one of Peter’s all-time classic stories — his infamous tackle on Fairfield rugby league star Chris Smith. It’s the kind of story that still gets brought up years later, and for good reason.
From there, we take a trip down memory lane, reflecting on the simpler days growing up in Fairfield — when MySpace was the peak of social media and life felt a whole lot less complicated. We compare that era to today, discussing how social media has shaped younger generations, especially those under 16, and why Matt believes recent bans could actually be a positive step.
We also get into the real stuff — the pressures of family life, growing up, and figuring things out along the way. Matt opens up about how he always saw Peter as someone who had his life together, even back at 16, and how that’s carried through into adulthood.
Peter’s journey since then has been nothing short of impressive, including building a successful career and spending a decade living and working in Singapore.It’s a mix of laughs, nostalgia, and real talk — exactly what Call A Mate is all about.
