TWO AM I Season 3 Episode 4: Andrew Abdo

Episode 4: Andrew Abdo
It wasn’t on Andrew Abdo’s radar to become the CEO of the National Rugby League (NRL). But standing at a bus stop, in the rain became a seminal moment that set him on the path to now. Andrew grew up in a small coastal town in apartheid South Africa, and at a young age he lost his brother Antony in a motorbike accident, an incredibly difficult time that he says helped shape his view on life and the importance of living in the now. He also credits Nelson Mandela as having the biggest impact on his life outside of someone he met in person, and the sense of justice and fairness he gained from watching his country’s rebirth during that time. And while Andrew admits he’s not one to speak publicly about his private life, he opens up in this episode about all this, and more.
