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

When I was a kid, my job wasn’t just being a brother — it was being a bodyguard.
My brother had Down syndrome, and the world wasn’t always kind to him. I didn’t just protect him from bullies… I learned about humanity, courage, and what it meant to stand for someone who couldn’t always stand for themselves.
He taught me more about love, patience, and resilience than any textbook or self-help seminar ever could.
When he passed away, it rocked my world , I realised my role as his protector didn’t end — it just changed. It became more !
Now, my mission is to speak up for those who can’t, to share the stories that matter, and to remind people that real heroes don’t wear capes… they wear courage.

🔥 NEW EPISODE DROPPING SOON 🔥🎙️ TRIBE vs SYSTEM – EPISODE 9:“YOU ARE ENOUGH: Burn the Blueprint, Rewrite the Rules”
This isn’t self-help fluff.It’s a f***ing battle cry.
Men are silently snapping under pressure.We’re juggling provider roles, emotional baggage, red tape, and expectations so twisted they’d snap a circus acrobat.
⚠️ This week, we call it out.
Why the system wants you exhausted, obedient, and silent
Why “being a man” today feels like a no-win game
How the pressure to perform is quietly killing us
And why YOU ARE ENOUGH, exactly as you are—no cape, no six-pack required
We’re flipping the script, burning the old rules, and starting a tribe that’s got your back without the bullshit.
💥 This episode hits different.💥 It’s the permission you didn’t know you needed.💥 It’s the mic drop modern masculinity has been waiting for.
🧭 One rule to burn.🧱 One part of your story to rewrite.🤝 One brother to share this with.
📍 Streaming soon on PODBEAN🔗 www.whoisyourhero.com.au🎧 Follow. Support. Join the rebellion.
Because enough is enough.And so are you.

It’s not just about the game.
It’s not just about the wins.

Jeff Hunter’s story is one every Aussie needs to hear—especially those who’ve ever felt outside the circle.
From grassroots football to a personal fight for inclusion, this isn’t a highlight reel—it’s a healing one.
A story of pain behind the pride
Finding purpose in the shadows

Eight weeks ago, I walked into Emergency—and everything changed. From footy fields and Friday night beers to dialysis machines and daily discipline, this podcast is my raw and real journey through kidney failure, mental resilience, and fighting for a second chance at life.
Each week, I unpack the grind of recovery, meet others walking their own tough paths, and ask the deeper questions:👉 Why do we wait for a breakdown before we wake up?👉 Are we really healing, or just medicating?👉 Who’s still got fight left in them?
Whether you’re battling your own health war, supporting someone who is, or just need a straight-up conversation about grit, transformation, and how to rewrite your story—this podcast is for you.
💥 Featuring guest stories, laughter in dark moments, and a powerful reminder:You are enough. Your story matters. And the world needs your fight.

🎙️ TONIGHT ON “WHO IS YOUR HERO?”
Recorded , with Buzz & special guest: Gypsie
🧠 Truth bombs, belly laughs, and a crash course in freedom…It’s time to meet the man behind the madness —
a spiritual wingman, a common law crusader, and a bloke who’s survived more red tape and rogue governments than a dodgy tradie on a MyGov login.
Gypsie ain’t your average guest.
He’s got a head like a sun-dried prune and a heart that could power a small country.
Tonight, he joins me to crack open the can of worms we’ve all been tiptoeing around.
