Often considered the 'Wild West' of Australia, the Northern Territory has more characters than the Oxford Dictionary. Most of them have never had their story told. Until Now!
Real stories from the Northern Territory, Australia. Hosted by Mother and Daughter duo: Toni Tapp Coutts and Megan Coutts - aka Mum and Me!
Come on a journey, as we delve into the life stories of Territorians, whether born here or not, and hear some fascinating yarns.
We will donate all of our interviews the the Library and Archives of the NT, for their oral history project.
A true Territorian isn't merely a casual observer who enjoys the surroundings; they're the ones who forge a deep connection to the land. They establish their presence, nurture their families, and invest in the future of the Territory. Though the coming years may present challenges, a genuine Territorian embraces them with resolve, committed to enduring and prospering. They build legacies that echo through generations, ensuring a brighter tomorrow for their descendants, who will one day honour their foresight and dedication.

Who knew that some great life advice would come in the form of a washing machine analogy? What a story!
Kate Ganley, a girl that grew up in rural New South Wales and attended one of Australia’s top boarding schools. A cheeky kid and a rowing champion, who did well at university, Kate signed tup o do a medical degree.
The Northern Territory was a place she had hardly heard of and was certainly not on her planned life path, until, a short volunteering trip to a remote indigenous community in Central Australia, saw her life plans take a dramatic turn and she has been here ever since.
Feisty and passionate, Kate has run in NT elections, had a stint on Katherine Town Council, organised the famous Barunga Festival and had many adventures in between. Now Kate and her husband Carney along with their children Tjak and Goldie, are running a successful tourist venture, the ‘Gorge View Bush Retreat’ located on beautiful Jawoyn country at the gateway to the magnificent Katherine Gorge and Nitmiluk National Park.
When visiting the Northern Territory do not go past the Gorge View Bush Retreat - with glamping tents, swimming pool, and a beautiful outdoor deck to dine at night on homemade pizza, and be enveloped by the setting of the red sun and the haunting music of master didgeridoo player Dalabon man, Manuel Pampkal .
