Ep.68 - BJ Wallace - Into The Green Podcast, TBL Property Maintenance, LLEE

BJ Wallace grew up in Brisbane’s western suburbs and faced a tough childhood, often finding himself on the wrong path. After leaving school early, he made the decision to return and complete Years 11 and 12, but soon found himself caught up in a lifestyle of partying and drinking. Everything changed when he met his future wife and, at just 21 years old, became a father to a daughter born with a life-threatening diagnosis—a moment that forced him to grow up fast. Following a serious car accident on his way to work, BJ took time to reassess his life and discovered a passion for lawn mowing and landscaping. What began as subcontracting for a mate eventually led to the creation of his own successful business, TBL Property Maintenance. Life would test him again when his daughter sadly passed away at the age of 15, but the overwhelming support from the lawn and landscaping community inspired him to give back by creating the annual Lawn Landscape Equip Expo, bringing people across the industry together. Determined to contribute even more to the industry he loves, BJ launched the Into The Green Podcast, providing a platform for stories, knowledge, and connection within the landscaping community. Now preparing to step into the ring against Zaden Bryant at Podcast Royale 3.0 in what promises to be a heavyweight slobber knocker, BJ continues to embrace every challenge that comes his way. Today, he is a devoted husband and father of two, a successful business owner, podcaster, and community leader. His story is one of resilience, proving that no matter how many times life knocks you down, you can always get back up, keep fighting, and keep winning.

Ep.67- Billy Derksen - Former NSW Firefighter, Supercross Motorbike Rider

Billy Derksen’s story is one of adrenaline, survival and rebuilding life after the storm. Raised in Western Sydney, motorbikes were more than just a hobby — they were part of the family. While school wasn’t where his focus sat, racing was. Billy travelled up and down Australia’s east coast chasing the thrill of competition and making a name for himself in the racing world, until a long list of injuries eventually forced him to step away. Looking for a new purpose, he joined the NSW Fire Service as a volunteer before turning that passion into a career as a full-time firefighter. But the job would test him in ways few people could imagine. During his service, Billy survived two near-death situations while battling bushfires — one ending with a rescue helicopter extraction and another with his crew forced into life-saving emergency procedures inside their fire truck. The aftermath of those experiences changed everything. Diagnosed with PTSD and medically discharged from the service, Billy and his family made the move to Brisbane in search of a fresh start. Even away from the front line, the battles didn’t stop. Through dark periods, professional support and rebuilding himself piece by piece, Billy found his way back. Today, he’s thriving in a new career, is a devoted husband and father of three, and still carries a passion for the service that shaped him — with hopes of one day returning in a training role to help prepare the next generation. A story of survival, identity, and finding purpose again after everything changes. This episode is proudly brought to you by Peak Productions https://linktr.ee/roadswalkedpodcast

Ep.66 - Robin Tinholt - Norwegian Country Music & Pop Artist Singer Songwriter

Born and raised in Norway, Robin Tinholt grew up with music always playing a part in his life. With his father performing in a band, music was never just background noise — it was part of the environment he was raised in. While he attended school like everyone else, his mind was always drifting toward melodies, lyrics and a dream that felt bigger than where he came from. From an early age, he knew music wasn’t just something he enjoyed, it was something he wanted to build a life around. Like many people chasing a dream, Robin took a more traditional path first, attending trade school to become a carpenter. But the pull of music never disappeared. Feeling that passion getting stronger, he made the decision to leave early and take his music journey seriously. That decision eventually took him all the way to Los Angeles to record music — a moment that gave him a glimpse of the life he had always imagined. Returning home to Norway only lit an even bigger fire inside him and strengthened his belief that he was meant for more. Along the way, Robin faced one of his toughest battles when a medical episode forced him to step away from the thing he loved most. For many people, that could have been the end of the story. Instead, it became another chapter. Determined to get back to doing what he loved and what he does best, he fought his way back with the same drive that had carried him this far. Inspired by Keith Urban and the way he tells stories through music, Robin has continued shaping his own sound and identity. His mission is simple — “Norway to Nashville.” It’s the story of a kid from a country where country music isn’t the biggest genre, refusing to let location, obstacles or setbacks decide his future. A story of persistence, passion and proving that no matter where you start, dreams don’t care about borders.

Ep.65 - Brad Wood - Radio Announcer The Fox 101.9, The Dolphins Gameday Host

Growing up in Melton, Brad Wood was the shy kid who struggled to fit in. Living with Autism made school difficult socially and academically, but while the classroom never felt like home, he found an escape in media, radio and the power of storytelling. Starting out at a local community radio station, Brad slowly built confidence behind the microphone. What began as a solo radio show eventually turned into bigger opportunities, opening doors across Australia in places like Muswellbrook, Ballarat, Adelaide and Brisbane. Every move meant taking risks, stepping into the unknown and proving to himself that he belonged in the industry he loved. Along the way, Brad built strong connections, earned respect in radio circles and refused to let fear or self-doubt hold him back. After moving back to Melbourne, another huge opportunity came his way… becoming the gameday announcer for the Dolphins, standing in front of packed stadiums doing what once felt impossible for the shy kid from Melton. Today, Brad is a radio announcer with The Fox and continues to carve out a career built on resilience, persistence and taking every opportunity life threw at him.
