Who Is Your Hero is an unapologetically real Australian podcast created and hosted by Matthew “Buzz” Fidler, built on one simple belief:

👉 Everyone has a story that can change someone’s life.

Born from a personal journey through kidney failure, footy fields, PNG jungles, construction sites, and some of life’s toughest setbacks, Who Is Your Hero has become a national movement of resilience, mateship, truth-telling, and everyday heroes.

Each episode dives deep into the lives of ordinary Australians doing extraordinary things — survivors, soldiers, footy legends, community leaders, domestic-violence warriors, tradies, battlers, advocates, and the quiet achievers who keep this country rolling.

Buzz brings the raw honesty, humour, and heart Australians crave:

\n
Real talk without the polish
\n
\n
Big laughs mixed with big truths
\n
\n
Life lessons from people who’ve actually lived
\n
\n
A platform for voices that deserve to be heard
\n

With conversations that hit like a beer-shed yarn, a hospital-bed reflection, and a campfire confession all in one, Who Is Your Hero isn’t just a podcast — it’s a movement.

A movement that says:
➡️ Your story matters.
➡️ Your struggles can lift someone else.
➡️ Your heroes might be right beside you — not on a screen.

From Townsville to Tassie, from veterans to young dads, from survivors to those still fighting — this is the podcast Australia needed.

Real people.
Real stories.
Real heroes.

Who Is Your Hero?
Only one way to find out.
