Peter Freedman AM is the founder and chairman of RØDE Microphones, the Australian audio powerhouse that revolutionised podcasting and the global creator economy.

Was awesome to have him in the studio to talk about his life story. Coming to Australia as an immigrant at a young age, experiencing rough bullying, dropping out of high school, going through hell before finding success and ultimately changing podcasting/creator forever. We had an intriguing conversation about A.I.’s future and Australia’s.

Apologies for the audio guys!! These things can happen with live events.

Last week I had the pleasure of hosting a charity breakfast with Premier Chris Minns to raise funds for Chalky’s Gym in Moree.

Chalky’s isn’t just a boxing gym — it’s a place where young people in the community learn confidence, discipline, and character. Boxing has changed the lives of many out there. It gives kids purpose, routine, and someone in their corner. It’s also changed the lives of many in areas where crime and poverty are serious problems.

As part of the event, I sat down for a live podcast with two legends of the sport, Jeff Fenech and Johnny Lewis. We were also joined by Premier Minns and a representative from Chalky’s (Robert Burton) to talk about the incredible work they’re doing in Moree.

We spoke about the power of mentors, the discipline that boxing teaches, and why gyms like Chalky’s are so important — not just for the sport, but for shaping the next generation.

He talks openly about the evolution of the industry, the importance of staying authentic, and what it really takes to connect with people on air.

Laws doesn’t hold back — sharing stories from behind the mic, his run-ins with Prime Ministers, his views on society, and what life looks like outside the studio.
