The 2025 UM Australia created a star in the man who was behind the camera for the Live stream.  Beñat Oliveira is a former competitor from 2023 who returned to help out the Dream Team make more dreams come true.  

He joins me to talk about that experience and why he has returned to the Basque region from Sydney. Spoiler: Triathlon.  His current job has him advising the New South Wales Department of Health in Artificial Intelligence, so we also delve into that.  

You can find the full, unedited, conversation with Beñat on YouTube.
