On this episode of the Zero Limits Podcast, Matty Morris sits down with Ben Roberts-Smith VC MG, a former Australian Special Air Service Regiment soldier and recipient of the Victoria Cross for Australia and Medal for Gallantry.

Ben enlisted in the Australian Army in 1996 and began his career with the 3rd Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment. During his time with 3RAR, he completed two operational tours of East Timor, including the Australian-led INTERFET mission in 1999, as well as two deployments to Malaysia with Rifle Company Butterworth.

After completing SASR selection in 2003 and the regiment’s reinforcement training, Ben joined 3 Squadron. His service included counterterrorism duties with Tactical Assault Group West, operations off Fiji in 2004, and Iraq throughout 2005 and 2006.

Ben went on to complete six deployments to Afghanistan, serving in roles including patrol scout, sniper, patrol second-in-command and patrol commander. He was awarded the Medal for Gallantry for his actions in Afghanistan in 2006 and the Victoria Cross in 2011 for his actions during the battle of Tizak in June 2010, when he assaulted enemy machine-gun positions while members of his troop were pinned down under fire.

On this episode of the Zero Limits Podcast, Matty speaks with former WA Police officer and Army reservist Stephanie Bochorsky, recipient of the inaugural National Police Bravery Award in 2018 and the Star of Courage in 2019.

In August 2015, while off duty in Doubleview, Stephanie heard a neighbour screaming for help. She rushed into the home, where a father had set one daughter alight and poured petrol over another. Stephanie extinguished the flames and rescued both girls, putting her own life at risk.

We discuss that night, her policing career and the lasting impact of trauma, including her battle with PTSD and the difficult road to medical retirement.

Joining the New Zealand Army in 1999, Tom served with 2/1 RNZIR and deployed twice to East Timor, developing his skills in reconnaissance and combat tracking before passing NZSAS selection in 2002 and being badged in 2003.

On today's Zero Limits Podcast Matt Morris chats with Ben "Benny" Radcliffe, former NSW Police officer and adventurer.

Raised in Lake Macquarie, Benny went to the NSW Police Academy at 18 and attested in 2007. He was posted to Waratah and spent 17 years policing across Newcastle. In his first year he was awarded the Australian Bravery Medal for his actions at a house fire during the 2007 Pasha Bulker floods. He went on to serve in the Target Action Group, work major crime scenes including murders, and serious crime. Behind the scenes he was fighting a serious chronic gut illness that nearly took his life and led him to Germany for treatment, while the trauma of the job built up. After a string of violent incidents and the loss of a colleague, he walked away from the force on his 35th birthday. Since then he has turned to the mountains. He is attempting the "Crown of Europe" and is pushing toward 100 country highpoints, the Seven Summits and the Seven Volcanic Summits, all while raising money for Emerge and See.
