The Jackett Ranch

My family bought a block of land in America in the ’70s. Nobody had been to see it, so I went. Now we’re giving it away.

About Tommy Jackett

I’m a creator who has been immersed in video, podcasts and content production for over 10 years. I started out on breakfast radio in Shepparton and made more than 1,000 episodes of The Daily Talk Show with Josh. What drives me is the spark: a story, a person or an idea I can’t stop thinking about, and then going all the way down the rabbit hole. In Guns We Trust is the biggest one yet, a feature documentary where Josh and I dove into one of America’s most divided topics.

I also run VIDPOD, a Melbourne video and podcast production company. We make brand films, case study videos, social content and podcasts for businesses across Australia.
