About this listen

Tony Barratt grew up living in a bus with his parents and six brothers and sisters, parked in a fixed location while his father worked as a roo shooter and rabbit catcher.

As an adult, Tony built a working life in Adelaide, spending years with Mitsubishi before later teaching aquatics to school children. Now in his seventies, he still rides motorbikes with his grandsons.

This conversation reflects on family, work and the steady unfolding of an Australian life.
