David Carter has been a man of the land all his life. As have his forebears at Scone in NSW. Just like so many people now on a regenerative journey a serious health scare made David look differently at his lifestyle and attitude toward his own state of health and that of his environment. Along with his stock and station agency, he is also a herd manager who oversees cattle as they are grazed holistically on many farms in NSW for the Highland Beef Pastoral Company.

Zach Bush has been physically absent from the Australian landscape for nearly 3 years, last in the country just days before the world shut down. Charlie's long-awaited in-person interview first lined up all those years ago with Zach was recorded amid his tour with the Farmers Footprint Australia team. As is Zach's habit, many topics were covered; the expression of Nature through human consciousness, the impossibility of human existence, extinction as an opportunity for the renewal of mankind, and what exactly is the genius of Zach (bonus content available to our Patreon members.....). A conduit of universal wisdom, and the most compelling global and human health advocate of our time.
