Australian Army combat veteran, former paratrooper and host of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast. After serving in Afghanistan in 2012, Sam transitioned out of the Army and built a platform known for long-form, unfiltered conversations that challenge ideas, ask difficult questions and encourage open discussion on the issues shaping Australia today.</p><p><br></p><p>Away from the microphone, Sam continues to serve the veteran community. In 2025, he ran more than 1,000 kilometres from Melbourne to Adelaide, raising vital funds and awareness for veterans and first responders living with PTSD. Love him or disagree with him, one thing is certain, Sam isn’t afraid to tackle the conversations that many others avoid.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, we dive into his military service, life after the Army, the growth of independent media, the power of open conversation, and what continues to drive him to speak up on the issues he believes matter most. This is an honest, thought-provoking conversation you won’t want to miss.</p><p><br></p><p>Huge thanks to the legends at @lastlaugh.apparel @ios_group_lae and @summit_cairns for helping us on our interstate trip to Adelaide to record this episode!</p><p><br></p><p>Recorded live from Adelaide.
