Sam had a chat with the organiser of the 2023 Blind Australian of the Year Awards, Marie Bampton along with the winner of the award in 2022, Cal Hooley.

We chatted about Cal’s work with communities in the Northern Territory; getting about in the remote areas of Australia; and his love of baseball.
