Sinopsis
At its heart, this is a podcast about the Northern Territory of Australia: The people that live and work here (we are known as Territorians) and how we connect with each other and the world. The title comes from the Northern Territory Governments branding strategy, which we are told, is for all Territorians to adopt and use. So, with that in mind, each week Peter Gowers (Oppidanus) and Leon Loganathan (Ward Keller) connect with guests and shoot the breeze. Our aim is to bring you authentic and engaging conversion. Sit back and enjoy!
