We're a couple of small town guys from a tiny country at the bottom of the world. Ben and Jay are exploring their own journeys and anyone else who wants to talk to us and hang out.
This week we draw season two to a close and sit down for a wrap conversation. We reflect on the interviews and episodes this season and discuss what's in store for the future!

Arthur Uden - STJ - S02E16
Arthur Uden is a familiar sight on sporting sidelines all over Te Awamutu and its surrounds.
Camera in hand, his Waipa-wide goal is always simple - “…to capture the moment”.
This week, Arthur bravely opens up about his ongoing battle with cancer.
After two years of intense back pain, he was diagnosed in 2023 - just after he and his wife Judy celebrated her five-year cancer free milestone.
Despite recently having put his Facebook page - Waipa Sports Images - on pause amid his latest “serious cancer battles”, he says he still picks up his camera when he can.
He loves sports, landscapes and birdlife and passionately describes his love for creativity, while also wanting to share some key tips he’s learned over the years with anyone thinking about taking up photography.
The Waipa Sports Images Facebook page is here; https://www.facebook.com/groups/530428374948521 (https://www.facebook.com/groups/530428374948521)

Fletcher Morgan - STJ - S02E15
Waihi born and raised Fletcher Morgan has been having the time of his life.
From growing up “kicking the ball around” with mates and loving watching Dan Carter, to helping the Southland Stags win the Ranfurly Shield for the first time in 14 years just eight days ago, his life-long love of rugby has already taken him on a thrilling journey.
And, with just four caps for Southland under his belt, it’s only just beginning.
This week, we sat down with Fletcher to talk all things rugby, what it was like making the big move down south and how much he is loving being part of the Stags as “something special” begins to build.
