About the episode

Robbie Schmidt is a self-confessed ratbag.  The Alice Springs identity spent his formative years traveling between large properties in South Australia and the Northern Territory, so it’s not surprising that he ended up working as a station manager.But, then Robbie and his partner chose to step away from working in agriculture for 5 long years. In this episode, Robbie shares yarns about the experiences which have shaped his life and why he came back to life on the land. He also speaks about his passion for nurturing a community around the sport of bronco branding, and why he has chosen to leave Alice Springs after all these years.
