Romy hosted Megan at her rural block outside Darwin, Northern Territory. The poddy calf, that was now a cow, had pushed over the table and pooped on the beautifully laid out mat. At least the wine was still intact!

As a recent winner of the Colemans Contracting and Earthmoving Agriculture award at the NT Young Achiever Awards night, Romy was recognised for the dynamo she is! Born in Darwin, growing up in Humpty Doo, her passion for the land and it's people began from day one!

Coupled with the her busy job as the NTCA (Northern Territory Cattleman's Association) deputy CEO, Romy has a high octane life filled with adventure and laughter! Her number one love is her husband and children, at it shines through in all she does.

Romy was such a pleasure to talk to, and we even got a little bonus recording we will whip out in the future!

Tony Fuller had no hesitation in saying 'yes' to being our very first interview, and as you listen to his story, you will see that his humility and kindness is at the core of his being.

A bush cop who was shot at by a group of youths in a remote community, who was heavily involved in finding justice for Carlie Sinclair and spent decades policing in some of the most remote Aboriginal communities in the NT.

Tony Fuller is currently the Chief Fire Control Officer of Bushfires NT, and has spent the past few years leading a team of fire fighters and emergency

services teams to fight mammoth fires in Central Australia - sometimes trying to contain fires with 500 km fronts!

Tony Fuller has a big story to tell and we are proud that he has trusted us to take his story to the public as the first guest on the whim of Toni And Megan wanting to create a podcast of the Untold Territory..

Gurindji man Kamahi Djordan King was born into a large Katherine family and spent time going bush with family as his father worked road building in the Ngukurr region and going to school in Katherine.

A man of great talent in all things artistic and creative, he took himself off to university to learn his trade and has trodden the boards of many great stages in Australia and the UK. Add to that creating his own cabaret show, the inception of Constantina Bush and mixing it with some great stars and artists and a famous world politician! 

Kamahi is a man with a wonderful generous spirit and is only halfway through his life story. We are thrilled to have him as the cameo on our very first episode of Untold Territory - From the Couch at Crow Corner.
