    An Unexpected Journey (to the radio studio)

    The past twelve days of my life have been pretty random. It all kicked off when I decided to stop making political posts on Facebook ("in the national interest") and to stop thinking about national politics and instead focus my energies on just doing things in my community to make a difference.

    I won't bore you with the specifics (mostly because I don't have time to type them), but I'm pleased to say I've had some positive results and I've really enjoyed it. I think the highest and strangest point was on Tuesday morning, where I ended up on our local radio station (at about 10 minutes notice).

    I've grabbed the audio from the part I was on, and added the Facebook post that prompted them to contact me:



    I hope you enjoy hearing from the real person behind the King of the Post-Count himself, yours truly.

    Bonus marks if you can donate anything to Mick or just share his story:

    Thanks and best wishes. Hope everyone's OK out there in the world.

    Top bloke. What you lack in looks you make up for in kindness

    I'll drop a few queens for Mick as soon as my paycheck goes in this evening

    That's great Gondo, really the best way to effect change is small ways begining at home and spreading!
    I'll get the wife to bump this on FB when she returns.

    Great job mate!
