TIM BONYTHON
3w ago01:20:44Tap to summarizeThis episode of The Horse's Mouth, I had the good fortune of speaking with none other than Tim Bonython. Tim is a weapon behind the lens. He's been running around the globe chasing waves and surfers with a camera since 1978. Over the decades that followed, Tim has captured some of the most iconic moments in surfing and surf history, from the early days at Bells through to France, Spain (Nazaré), Teahupo'o (Tahiti), Fiji, and beyond. He also produced the Hawaii Nine-O VHS series, from Nine-O through to Nine-7, which were some of my fav's to plug into instead of homework after school. Tim takes us on a whirlwind tour through a life spent chasing waves, stories, and some of the biggest moments in surfing history. Thanks again, Tim.

MARK CLATWORTHY
Jul 501:15:45Tap to summarizeThis episode of The Horse's Mouth, I had the pleasure of chatting with Mark Clatworthy, founder of Ocean Grind Coffee, Torquay Mark's not long back from Central America, looking at coffee bean farms and forging relationships in the game. Mark's journey into the bean isn't a straight shot. After making a career in engineering and while travelling with his wife in South America, he stumbled upon a popcorn-making machine and thereafter, a lightbulb moment - following his intuition and curiosity for the bean and making banging coffee, ultimately building Ocean Grind into the Surf Coast’s most respected coffee roaster. It was an absolute pleasure to have Mark on for a chat, and I hope you enjoy the conversation as much as I did. Cheers Mark.

DR DZAVID HAVERIC
Jun 1001:29:18Tap to summarizeIn this episode of The Horse's Mouth, I had the great pleasure of talking with Dr Dzavid Haveric. Dzavid is a force of nature — an academic of the highest order, you might say. He's one of the most well-read people I've ever met and has dedicated his life's work to history, particularly the story of early Muslims trading with the First Nations people of Arnhem Land prior to white colonisation. His published work also explores Muslims fighting alongside Australians in the Boer War and both World Wars. To date, he has had 16 books published, along with numerous university papers. Dzavid's own story is just as remarkable. He grew up in Bosnia and fled when Serbia invaded in the early 1990s, eventually making his way to Australia. Dzavid's life is an incredible story, and I was thrilled to have him on for a chat. Cheers, Dzavid.

WILLIS DROOMER
Apr 1201:28:03Tap to summarizeThis episode of The Horse’s Mouth, I had the good fortune of speaking with none other than Willis Droomer. Willis is a force of nature — a chip off the old block, you might say (whether that’s a block of wood or a motor… both work). In his young career, Willis has been kicking ass — winning a World Junior Title, being part of the Torquay Boardriders team that took out the World Club Championship this year, and has been sponsored by Billabong since he was 8. He’s also dropping banger content on YouTube (which he edits himself), loves hanging and surfing with his mates and family, and was an absolute pleasure to have over for a yarn. Hope you enjoy the chat

ANDY HIGGINS
Jan 1801:57:31Tap to summarizeThis episode of The Horse’s Mouth, I had the good fortune of sitting down with none other than Andy Higgins. @andyhiggins.surf Let’s just say you can take the boy out of Aus, but you can’t take the Aus outta the boy — even after waking up to fresh baguettes and frog’s legs for the past 16 years. Higgo’s still got the battler well and truly intact. In this chat, we traverse Andy’s life, talking all things life, death, travel, surfing, and his long stint working within the surf industry, before transitioning into his current role as a producer of a new series he conceptualised, Surfing With the Stars — an epic idea, I can’t wait to see come to life. Hope you enjoy the chat. Thanks, Higgo

STEPHANIE DE LANDER
Jan 401:21:25Tap to summarize2026 — the Year of the Horse. In this episode, I had the good fortune of sitting down with Stephanie De Lander (@stephdelander). Steph is a professional wrestler on the world circuit — an absolute weapon and an even better human. We cover a lot of ground, but Steph’s story is a standout: originally from the Northern Beaches of Sydney she's chased her dreams to the US, and finally getting signed by WWE and TNA, and fully embracing the wild ride that comes with it. I love talking to people who follow the white rabbit of intuition — throw caution to the wind and let the chips lay where they may (to rip a quote from True Romance). Steph embodies that energy. She’s an absolute legend, and I was stoked she agreed to come on for a chat — a two-for-one deal made even better by the fact she’s recently married to Mance Warner, “The Southern Psycho”, https://stephdelander.bigcartel.com/ Hope you enjoy the chat

FIONA LUCA
Dec 301:41:19Tap to summarizeThis episode of The Horse’s Mouth I had the good fortune of speaking with none other than Fiona Luca. www.movewithfiona.com.au/ She was also a dance instructor and ran a very successful dance studio here in Geelong — which you’ll hear all about in our chat. In this episode we loosely weave through Fiona’s life and discuss everything in between. Hope you enjoy our chat!

LUKE WILLIAMS
Nov 1601:41:35Tap to summarizeWelcome to another edition of The Horses Mouth. In this episode I had the good fortune of speaking with none other than Luke Williams. Luke is one of those people with infectious energy — a great human, a great storyteller, and a serious gonad man. His ability to hold priority and wait for the right wave is enough to melt even the sternest of steel traps. Luke hails from the coastal Victorian town of Lorne, where he dominates both the point and the main drag. When he’s not doing that, he’s dominating the spot — and when he’s not dominating the spot, he’s at work, smashing houses together to help keep Victoria moving. He’s got a biblical trade — a carpenter — and he’s damn good at it too. And if he’s not in the surf or on the tools, he’s either hanging out with his girlfriend or trekking to some far-flung corner of the globe, sniffing out wedges and spreading the Luke Williams fairy-dust good vibes wherever he goes. Hope you enjoy our chat.
