BIG RED and MUNDI MUNDI BASH

A bushwacking good time!

Buckle up your boots and get ready for the wildest damn event the Outback has ever seen – the BIG RED BASH in Birdsville! What a crazy ride!! (Just a tiny 22 hours drive from Brisbane) Featuring massive international superstars, record breaking stunts and a fun family atmosphere over three spectacular days. This is Dave Gleeson from The Screaming Jets who was lead man for The Angels. They rocked it big time! Dave has a new album with the Jets coming out very soon. Cant wait to hear it!!

John Williamson performed here 10 years ago and sang Waltzing Matilda to launch the Festival after the welcome to country.

Aussie Pop Princess Kate Cebrano, Ross Wilson and Ava from The Chantoosies.

I was MC for this record breaking three-day party! ?? I interviewed all the Aussie mega stars of the show – and let me tell you, it was like herding kangaroos on steroids backstage! ???

10,000 screaming fans there for one hell of a week. We are doing it all again at Mundi Mundi in a few weeks out near Broken Hill. Same massive line up. See it all here https://bigredbash.com.au/

If you want to come next year get in early as it sells out in like 7 minutes.

Thank you to Greg and the Donovan family for having me as their MC. An honour and a privilege.

Thats Big red the biggest sand dune in the Simpson Desert. Hence the name, Big red Bash.

See you in Mundi Mundi 🙂

$200k for Aussie KIDZ charity

Ben Hannock and Me

$80k for a Toy Hammer signed by Thor aka Chris Hemsworth and over $30 for race car driver Ian Talbot to shave his beard. Just some of the funds raised during the madcap cruise aboard The Yot on the Gold Coast where I hosted my second annual Aussie Kidz fund raiser. This organisation helps where the NDIS and other charities can not. Mainly disabled or underprivileged kids who need help are given whatever they need to make life easier for them and their families. Truck Wash King Ben Hannock was there and in fine form scoring the Thor Hammer. Many other Gold Coast and Brisbane socialites were a part of the action including Charli Robinson from Getaway, High Five and ex-Sea FM. Special thank you to Trenton Gay and the Gay Group of companies for supporting the event in a big way. What a legend! See you next year.

Worlds Fastest Man

World Record holder Blake Leeper is a double amputee with a shot at the 2020 Olympic roster. No thats not a typo, we didn’t say Paralympic, he’s already won all the medals and smashed the records there. Blake wants to win gold at the Olympics and he’s not stopping until he gets it. Unfortunately Blakes quest has been stalled by what he calls racism in the Court of Appeals for Sports. You see the It ruled that World Athletics could stop him from competing since his prosthetic leges gave him an unfair advantage, making him taller than if he were born with legs. Problem with that ruling is the data used to get their findings was compiled from European and Asian men, not anyone of African decent. Blake has an amazing story and is one of the most positive people you could ever meet. Everyone could learn a thing or two from this sporting hero.
