Jack Tame: Eyewitnesses to history

Saturday Morning with Jack Tame ·

2025/05/09

The centre of the world. It’s a funny concept, really, because on a planet with 8 billion people, the world’s attention never settles on any one event or thing for much more than a moment. Most of the time you would probably argue that the world’s attention is divided and scattered. It takes an historic moment, something really big, truly significant, to hone those 8 billion sets of eyes to one point. And to be there in person, to actually experience it for yourself is to be an eyewitness to

2025/05/03

"Budapest has long been a punching bag for invading powers and battled over by a litany of imperial bullies.

I was back in the Hungarian capital with Trafalgar, one of the headline stops on their splendidly curated 10-day Imperial Europe tour." Read Mike's full article here.

I was taken aback by how long it had been since I’d last come to town. It’s amazing how time creeps up on you like that. One minute you’re at Grandma and Grandad’s place every few months, knocking around with your siblings. The next you’re going through Grandad’s drawers, packing him a bag of his most precious possessions. The next, you realise it’s three years since you even drove down his street. State Highway One was an absolute shocker. I was driving the old straight line, heading South from
