In this episode we’re joined by Robbie Riches

Robbie is best known for being the former Owner/Operator of “Perth Fishing Safaris”, who were the only land based fishing guides operating out of the southern half of WA at the time. 

Robbie & his team successfully guided hundreds of clients onto trophy fish such as Spanish Mackerel off the rocks at Quobba Station, Monster Mulloway from the Midwest beaches, as well as being early adopters of the drone fishing craze which saw clients travel from all over the country to come fishing with PFS for a high chance at catching Snapper while still having the sand between their toes.

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
