Everyday people make up the largest portion of the worlds population, not movie stars, not sports stars and definitely not social influencers or the Kardashians (though it may seem that way with the media they receive). So what better for this large section of people than an podcast made by everyday people with everyday guests. Join Ledge and friends at his homemade backyard bar where along with his sons and other guests they enjoy a beer and discuss different subjects with a focus on sport but drifting to many varied subjects.
With so many sports reaching there climatic end of season finals it only seemed appropriate that the much loved FFTE podcast put out it's third episode for the season. Though Ledge tries to sell every episode as a SPECIAL now, it is quiet easy to see this is an excuse for laziness. Just the same there is a special first in the ep with our guest ben the person that our previous guest Doctor Sean had said he thought we should have on FFTE. And so it is the along with Ben Ledge is joined by Glenmore hardman Matt Cameron, topics range across football, life in the defence force and working away from home. Ledge also remembers enough of the format to give Matt his now collectible FFTE cap and pen(something Marco the dutchman still awaits) and buy some beer for tasting. So you do the same grab a beer, have a listen and hopefully enjoy.

Bonus Season 1 Ep 4: Ordinary or not.
Because this entity of "Fresh From the Esky" was created due to a Spotify stuff up it doesn't contain early episodes of this much loved podcast. Until now that is, ask and FFTE will deliver.Ledge and Ben take "Fresh From the Esky" on the road for the first time. In the palatial surrounds of Capricornia and Wandal/Glenmore Bulls administration icon Graham Orr. Graham along with wife Heather played a huge part in Australian rules football in central Queensland, now as Graham affectionally known as Orry enters his 9th decade on earth we look back at his earlier years. Train rides in his youth where a young Heather happened to be aboard as well. Who was "accidently" feeling up who as the daily commute would lurch and roll? And then who were the loved up young couple slick car salesman Orry sold a possibly relationship ending vehicle to? Find the answers to these questions and more as we barely scratch the surface of an interesting full life over a beer.
P.S For your listening pleasure Ben once again controlled audio on this episode.

Bonus Season 1 Ep3: Critiques at the speed of light.
Because this entity of "Fresh From the Esky" was created due to a Spotify stuff up it does not contain early episodes of this much loved podcast. Until now that is, as the masses demand the masses will receive.
This episode has Ledge & Ben on their own again discussing the critiques and feedback by the few active listeners...not the 4 billion we were hoping for yet. They talk about the responses to the first two episodes and then touch on an array of subjects such as music, physics, Ledge's inability to work the audio and Ben's worrying geography skills. As always the boys review another beer as it all goes down, even profanities are discussed on this usually family friendly show. Hopefully with a new audio producer in charge this episode is little bit easier on the ears.
