## Resource

In this episode, we dive into the devastating natural disasters currently impacting Australia. We discuss the incredible efforts of communities coming together to lend a hand, while also acknowledging the long and difficult road ahead for those affected as they work to rebuild. The boys share their thoughts on what the country could do to better prevent or reduce the impact of these events in the future. We also turn our attention to the upcoming Xtreme Bull Finals, breaking down some of the key matchups and why this event is shaping up to be a great one. From there, the conversation shifts to old farm machinery and tools that have been passed down for generations, why they’re so durable and how they just seem to never die. To wind things down, we finish with wives’ tales, sharing some we’ve heard over the years and putting them to the test before adding this weeks song choice to the playlist. Tune in now to catch it all! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
