Description

Willie Cook is known for being the bull-catching, helicopter-flying Kiwi from the ABC tv series “Outback Ringer”.

He first came on the podcast in 2022, when he shared the incredible story of how the 2008 Global Financial Crisis saw his family lose absolutely everything they had, resulting in moving to Australia for a fresh start.

I caught up with Willie in late 2023, and we yarned for so long that I had to split our chat into 2 parts.

In this part, Willie gives us a lesson on catching wild bulls and water buffalo – the logistics, the technique and the psychology involved

In Part 2, Willies shares stories from his time being filmed for the television series “Outback Ringer”. He also speaks candidly about the challenges he faced in 2023, and what he’s got planned for 2024.
