#46 Scott Miller: Olympic Silver To Rock Bottom & Rebuild.
From Olympic silver medallist to rock bottom and the long road back, Scott Miller's story is one of extraordinary highs, devastating lows and hard-earned perspective.
At the peak of his swimming career, Scott represented Australia on the world stage and stood on the Olympic podium. Away from the pool, however, his life took a very different direction as he faced addiction, criminal offending, prison and the consequences of choices that ultimately cost him almost everything.
In this conversation, Scott reflects honestly on the discipline required to compete at the highest level, the reality of life after elite sport, and what happens when achievement, identity and purpose begin to unravel.
He also shares what rebuilding looks like when there are no shortcuts, taking responsibility for the past, confronting personal demons and trying to move forward one decision at a time.
This is not simply a story about sporting success or redemption. It's a raw conversation about pressure, addiction, accountability, resilience and the difficult work required to change your life after hitting rock bottom.
This is Scott Miller beyond the podium, his journey, his perspective, and the hard truth about rebuilding a life from the ground up.

#45 Mathew Thompson: The Voice Of Rugby League
Long before the cameras turn on and the first whistle blows, the rugby league world is already moving. And standing at the centre of it all is one of the most recognisable voices in the game, Mathew Thompson.
As a rugby league commentator, Mathew has spent years behind the microphone, calling some of the biggest moments in the sport and giving fans a voice to follow through every try, tackle, controversy and comeback.
But there’s more to being the voice of rugby league than simply calling the action. It’s about staying objective, understanding the game, and letting the players and the contest take centre stage.
From where he grew up to his journey through the rugby league world, Mathew shares what it really means to call the game he cares about. For him, the ultimate objective is simple: a great game of rugby league.
This is Mathew Thompson beyond the commentary box, his journey, his perspective, and the world of rugby league through the eyes of one of its most familiar voices.
