Welcome to Season 2, episode 13

Join us as we talk to 98 year old Peter Whitehead who travelled across the world from England to end up in Australia at the young age of 13. There he became a stockman in the vast outback of Australia, where he learnt how to break in and train horses. A skill that was highly sought after during WWII and saw him breaking horses in for the Australian Army. He has a true love of animals, especially horses and so many wonderful stories to share.
