5 With A Digger Podcast

5 With A Digger. Jase Shore.

Episode 116 and I’m joined by Jase Shore. Jase enlisted into the Australian Army back in 2006 as Infantry Corps, posted straight to Darwin with 5/7 RAR. In 2007 he deployed to Iraq on Operation Gateway 3, detached from battalion to support SECDET 6 alongside boys from 1RAR and 7/6RAR. After discharging in 2010, life took a completely different turn. And then in 2019 during the Sydney knife attack, Jase found himself in the middle of absolute chaos. When most people were running away; Instinct kicked in. Training kicked in. And Jase stepped forward. From Army life. Deployment stories. Transitioning out. Massive thanks to @inature.running @lastlaugh.apparel @jcshaulage and @certified_mechanical for helping this Darwin trip come to fruition.

5 With A Digger. Emergency Best Of May 2026!

Episode 115 and unfortunately, due to circumstances completely out of our control and an absolute doozey of a crash on the highway today, our guest was unable to make it into the studio. So we’re bringing you a special “Best Of 5 With A Digger” episode. And with everything happening behind the scenes right now it’s probably the perfect time for it. Because the team here at 5 With A Digger is absolutely flat out packing and preparing for Darwin. We’ve got interviews lined up, stories to tell, old mates to catch up with and heaps of massive content coming your way over the next few weeks. And before we get into the episode, we also want to acknowledge the tragic loss of an Australian soldier this week. An SASR operator. A husband, mate, teammate and warrior known to many as Mudds, killed during a training incident. No matter the circumstances, losing one of our own hits hard across the entire veteran and defence community. To his family, mates, teammates and everyone doing it tough right now, we’re thinking of you. Lest We Forget.

5 With A Digger. Tarsh.

Episode 115 and I’m joined by Tarsh. Tarsh is an Army Reserve veteran who’ll tell you she “just did bits and pieces” during her service but what she’s done after taking the uniform off is something pretty special. After volunteering with the Sleepbus helping people doing it tough, Tarsh and seven others refused to let the mission die when the organisation folded. No experience running a charity. No roadmap. No huge backing. Just a whole lotta heart and a belief that people still needed help. Out of that chaos came The Z Bus. Today we hear the origin story behind a group of everyday people who stepped up when it mattered most — and continue showing up for their community every single day. Big episode. Big heart.

5 With A Digger. BRS & Anzac Day Conversation Feat. Crowy.

Episode 112 and Crowy’s back in the chair and we’re diving straight into the controversy surrounding Ben Roberts-Smith. A Victoria Cross recipient now facing five war crime charges relating to alleged incidents in Afghanistan, allegations he denies. After years in the spotlight and a massive defamation case, this now moves into a criminal trial where the standard is beyond reasonable doubt. But this isn’t just about one man. It’s about how war is judged. How soldiers are seen back home. And where the line sits between loyalty and accountability. With Anzac Day around the corner, this one hits different.
