Episode description

Tiny Island is back! What better way to restart the pod about who we are as Australians, than with the leader of the Australian Republic Movement and Australian history author Peter FitzSimons? My first interaction with Peter was when I was starting to map out what a crawl across the Kokoda Track would look like. I'd been shut down by a few people but Peter hooked me up with the man who would eventually plan and lead our journey across the track. He is one of the people I've met on my journey who have helped me solve problems, rather than shut the door. An accomplished author, journalist, TV commentator and former Australian Rugby player, Peter has a unique perspective on what it is to be an Australian today and where we come from over the last 64,000 years.
