Join us for a conversation with Andrew and Jocie Bate, the farmer-founders behind SwarmFarm Robotics, an Australian agtech company revolutionising the way we farm. Their lightweight autonomous robots, which are already working across millions of acres, are helping growers do more with less: less chemical use, less soil compaction, and less time spent in a tractor cab.
Together, Andrew and Jocie share the story of building SwarmFarm from scratch, how robotics is bringing back old farming practices with a modern twist, and why autonomy is not about replacing people but empowering them.
We dive into the evolving identity of the modern farmer, the return on investment robots are already delivering on-farm, and how this technology is unlocking new roles, new efficiencies, and a more diverse future for agriculture.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
