The Life LID Podcast
The Term "LID" stands for Low Intelligence Digger and is used to describe Australian Soldiers, fresh out of training. They're inexperienced and constantly making rookie mistakes as they learn and try to improve day after day. When it comes to life itself, we're all LIDs. Not a single one of us has it all figured out. We're all struggling and fumbling our way through, trying to make our mark on the world. We're Life LIDs. On The Life LID Podcast we aim to speak to people from all walks, listen to their stories, their lived experience. Their ups. Their downs. The struggles they've encountered and how they overcame them. And Hopefully, we'll learn something.
