153. John Morris - Dubbo (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We had a number of people ask us about interviewing John Morris so finally got out to Dubbo and looked him up. I wasn't sure what to expect as all I was told was that he was a highly regarded Insurance Broker - and it seemed a bit out of left field for the podcast. But as usual there was no disappointment in meeting this terrific man who, after spending years in the transport game, took his knowledge with him to become a leader in his field in heavy vehicle insurance and another success story in
152. Rod Pilon (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We finally got to catch up with Rod Pilon of Dubbo to record the story of this well known Great Western Plains operator. He's old school and a genuine country bloke who wears his heart on his sleeve, helps out the industry, gives back to the community and does his best to promote safety culture. He also owns the fact that he's from an era of pushing the boundaries but acknowledges that those days are gone. A great chat with a terrific person.

150. Joe Cassar (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A special one for our 150 th episode with the story of the amazing Joe Cassar. We always say how lucky we are to meet some of the nicest people doing Copy Southbound and Joe ticked that box. Extremely humble, respected and admired by so many of his peers, he's also known for his generosity and kindness, something that was evident from the first introduction. Many thanks to long time listener Michael Clarke for arranging this podcast with his mentor and friend.
149. Ian Smith (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Something different today as we spoke with Ian Smith, a long retired but well known man with a history in truck sales. He was selling in the golden era through the 70's with some well known clients, delivering some legendary vehicles. And of course, he's an absolute gentleman. Many thanks to truck historian Tony Petch for organising this at his house and for the information he provided to make this as special as it is.
