  1. Bite The Bullet

    VOR 3 TAGEN

    Bite The Bullet

    Benny has spent all of 3 nights at home since he and Ames last sat down in the shed to catch up. In this weeks episode of Flying Blind Ben recounts a powerful program of work across the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia, getting back in the car to drive back over the SA border for Easter less than 12 hours after getting home, topped off by an absolute ripper of a trip to Tasmania! Ames gives us an insight into the juggle behind the scenes, the importance of the 6 P’s (Prior Planning Prevents Piss Poor Performance) and how she managed to deliver a fantastic workshop in and amongst the chaos.   They also introduce something new to these catch up episodes this week as they take a minute to look back at what worked, what didn’t and what they have learned… It’s ok to lower your bar rather than setting yourself up for failure and sometimes you just have to bite the bullet, even when it means scuba diving in the sharks backyard!     Feeling thirsty?

    Backstage with Liam 'Shooter' Williamson

    In this weeks episode of Flying Blind, Benny sits down with one of his good mates, Liam ‘Shooter’ Williamson, the morning after a ripper night at Lainey Wilson’s Melbourne concert. Shooter is a carpenter and co-host of The Dusty Boots Podcast, which is fitting considering the boys may have been a little dusty during this recording. This is the first time that Shooter has been on the receiving end of an interview as he is normally the one asking the questions to some of the worlds biggest country music artists. They cover everything from growing up in the country, working hard for what you want, building a family and trying to be tough through tragedy.          Follow Liam On Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/liamshootswilliamson/    Follow the Dusty Boots Podcast on Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/thedustybootspodcast/    Feeling thirsty?

    3 in 1 with Andrew, Kirb & Buster Kirby

    When Ben was up north for the recent Two Flogs golf day, before they hit the golf course, he jumped into the Two Flogs studio with great mate and co host, Andrew ‘Buster’ Kirby for a yarn. There is plenty in this one as they cover everything from local sport, family, burgers and stand up comedy through to mental health, agoraphobia, online hate and unpacking the 3 different versions of himself, Andrew, Kirb & Buster. Throw in a revved up rooster on a rampage inside a van with 7 blokes on the road and this one certainly has a bit of everything!       Follow Andrew on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kirb___buster/   Follow the Two Flogs Podcast on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/twoflogspodcast/ Listen to Two Flogs Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/show/6aY7uIE9mgrX6FmbPFkZET Drink Born Dry: https://borndry.com.au/ Hosted on Acast.

    Ski For Life Recap with Daniel Sommerville

    We went, we skied and we conquered 456km’s from Murray Bridge to Renmark in South Australia over 3 days as part of Ski For Life 2026! Daniel is new to Ben’s Ski For Life team this year, so the two of them sit down after the dust has settled to crack a couple of cans and recap what was an epic event, running through their highlights and the impact that it had.   Daniel also shares why he was so keen on getting involved in Ski For Life in the first place, opening up on his own battles with the black dog and unpacking plenty of life lessons that he has learned on the fly that plenty of us will be able to relate to.    If you would like to get behind the team’s recent effort, and the great work that Ski For Life do supporting mental health, wellbeing and suicide prevention, you can donate here -     https://chuffed.org/fundraiser/the-college-2026    To find out more about Ski For Life, check out –   https://www.skiforlife.com.au/    Check out Caitlin Drew and the song she wrote for Ski For Life here –   https://open.spotify.com/track/6PUyEte3CdL3OmcCsAHVTB?si=IHfGjZZNTfuL39UIN9leUQ    Feeling thirsty?

  6. Gloves Up With Brothers, Brad & Nat

    Gloves Up With Brothers, Brad & Nat

    We switch things up in this weeks episode of Flying Blind, taking the opportunity to sit down in a boxing ring in Gulgong NSW of all places. With brothers Brad and Nat, we recap a mammoth community effort post completing a 24 hour boxing challenge for mental health! These two brothers are a couple of down to earth country blokes and they take a look back on growing up in the country, taking over the family farm plus open up on mental health challenges along the way and how getting involved with the local community boxing gym has not just changed their lives but, for one of them, probably even saved it. We know this one doesn’t sound like a typical episode recorded in the studio but Benny couldn’t pass up the chance to highlight what a ripper event these fellas put on for their community along with the entire Gulgong Community & Fitness Centre team. It was a damn pleasure to have been apart of it. Check out the Gulgong Community & Fitness Centre and the great stuff they are doing for their community here: https://www.facebook.com/GulgongCommunityFitness Hosted on Acast.

    From The Mines To The Mic with Tom Dahl

    On this weeks episode of Flying Blind, we rip into our first guest yarn with a great mate and host of the Alpha Blokes Podcast. Tom Dahl catches up with Benny when he was down in Melbourne at the end of last year. When Tommy was growing up, podcasts didn't exist so having "podcast host" as a career aspiration was impossible. This wild ride from working in the mines to hosting one of the country’s biggest podcast is the definition of flying blind. They unpack the journey it has been so far as well as taking a look at some of the stuff that goes on behind the mic that not everyone hears. Tommy’s blind skills also get put to the test for a bit of fun. For this chat we were tight for time so don’t stress, Tommy will be back on down the track to keep spinning yarns with us all.

    We're All Winging It!

    Welcome to the debut episode of Flying Blind, a podcast for all of us out there winging our way through life. In this introductory episode, you learn about your host, Ben Pettingill, a blind professional speaker and Dad, who lost his eyesight overnight at age 16 to a rare genetic syndrome. Ben also introduces you to his wife Amy who will make regular appearances on this weekly podcast but will mostly be behind the scenes editing and producing Flying Blind.  Ben and Amy chat about a recent experience he documented and shared online which subsequently went viral, giving his audiences a taste of life as a blind bloke. This experience encapsulates the literal side of Flying Blind where you will hear from Ben all about his life with only 2% eyesight. Alongside guest interviews with people generous in sharing their own metaphorical flying blind through life stories, Flying Blind is a podcast to remind us all to have a crack because we really are all just winging it!
