I lived out at Colin's place for almost 3 years out of my VW bus. Every time I'm out there, it's like an electricity storm. Both of our energy feeds off each other. Out of all the people I've met in met life, he's almost 100% always in the moment. He's guided me in life and I him. He's 82 and fucking still in it! God I love this motherfucker. There are certain people in life that help shape you. Colin has definitely guided me in many ways and still does!
This is really nice to hear about him. He seems just as you described him.
Well said....motherfucker!!
Beaudy maate.
Shining Souls you Mark and Colin😊
I’ve learned a lot from him just watching the videos.
Colin used to own The Australian Stocksaddle Company in California. Beautiful saddles. I own one called the Police Poly. He designed it specifically for police officers to use.They needed comfort for long shifts in the saddle. Ordered it over the phone, speaking to Colin. Best conversation ever! Then I met him in person at an equine event in Maryland. He was there with his stock saddle company. Thanked him for the most comfortable and most beautiful saddle I ever owned. Lovely gentlemen! This was almost 25 years ago. And here he is! Small world indeed!
Wow that's a great story as well ❤️
He really is quite a fiee cracker. Tried to sell me another saddle. I settled on a gallon of "Aussie Croc Saddle Oil" A must have to keep his saddles in good condition! His words.Still have the saddle. Have been out of the croc oil for some time though. 😉 After all these years on the trail, the saddle is scratched up and banged up, but it's still as comfy as ever!
Great story!❤❤❤
Awesome ❤
@@heidrunmercer1593 he pretty much does still own the Australian Stock Saddle company. It’s just under his own name now. Nothing else changed.
Sitting on the couch, enjoying your hobbies, has to be the most overhated activity of all time. I love watching classic cinema in 4k. I spend hours doing it, it gives me purpose, and it makes me happy. I stay healthy by running and I work enough to support my hobby. no kids for me, no car for me. As little risk as possible. I just like to enjoy my life. I'm 25, I've been in a happy relationship for 5 years, and after years of depression I've finally allowed myself to just enjoy my hobbies without guilt. I'm not failing by not "maximizing my potential" or "furthering my career". I've found what makes me happy and I'll stick to it. Nobody will ever convince me to sacrifice my happiness for a job. I will work enough to survive and fund my humble lifestyle, and not 1 minute more. I reject the grind.
That was very well said and I totally agree with you. Press on you're ahead of most of us and completely on the right track
Fair enough but you’re only 25 so young enough to take some more risks. You don’t want to keep sitting on the couch for the rest of your life, surely?.
Youre young so you have that going for you.
There’s a lot to be said for people who DONT enjoy getting out there and taking risks. If you’re older it’s because you already have and it’s paid off or it hasn’t, either way you’re done. If you’re younger it’s because you know what you like. Dont ever let society define YOUR happiness.
Netflix has your entire life planned with programming, written by AI and performed by your favorite familiar faces. Your memories will be exactly the same as millions of other sad humans, whom have also traded life's precious moments for a simulated feeling generated by a screen.
Just wait until your parents get sick, you have a child, or any other 911. Then you’ll understand the grind.
Better to grind when you don’t need to, so you don’t have to grind when you can’t afford to.
Love this guy. He may be my favorite guest, on this channel. Such an interesting person!
I love this man! We need our younger generations to listen to his knowledge. Fascinating.
I just turned 70 and if you had told me how my life story would unfold back then, I would have said you have the wrong person. It turned out to be a ride beyond anything I could have imagined.
Reminds me of my grandfather. Old man lived up north near Darwin in Australia. Ran a station up that way, used to grow Mangoes as a hobby. Passed away in 2010 when I was about 20 - miss him. He used to yap on and on about all his stories, miss hearing them now but as a youngster, used to drive me to tears! Hahaha - Nobody has a bigger heart than the folk up north. Some of the best memories of my life were up that way.
Colin you are a great inspiration to me. You confirm my way of life, that of being up for change and risk, even as a woman in mu 60s I still live a nomadic life and make it work for me, like no predicted outcome life style can do. Its exciting and yes it pushes me to go further with the trust that all will be just fine. Heres a saying I think you will appreciate....."I never lose, I win or I learn." Amen.
Love this! 👍
I'm 57 with a lot of health conditions, and I just lay in my bed and do. Nothing, I need to change a)ots I f things. Thank you for your comment can I message you?
Forgot to say that I love the still photograph of Colin. It’s just fantastic!
I agree AWESOME
I so appreciate the wisdom of our older generations.
Loved this whole interview and his thoughts on risk EXCEPT his jaded “men used to control women and now women are trying to control men” sentiment, and “women walk away with all the money.” Cmon, guy. Not everyone is trying to control each other and the divorce thing is certainly not always true
I'm sure that sentiment is based on his personal experience. Aussie men tend to be chauvinistic in general.
Life is finding a balance and
Risk-taking leads you to high reward, but if you don’t have the wisdom to know when to take the risk, it will leave you empty-handed.
I hope he did not toss that coat where Rebecca spit🤣
Colin is delightful, it’s great to see him back! This is more than I can say for the anonymous asshole (decidedly NOT delightful) who kept me up until 1 o’clock in the morning with fireworks last night.
I admire the Australian people tremendously. They are a sharp, tough lot.
I love this guy! We want more positive interviews like this.
I would take a risk every time i ate my Ex-Wifes cooking.
Well, my wife is a wonderful cook, BUT...my stepmother's cooking was absolutely horrendous when I was growing up, as a kid. I took that risk every day, lol!
😂😂
lol
And when you put your head on your pillow, assuming you’ve told her about her cooking!
LIFE IS RISKY!!! It's so risky that NO ONE makes it out alive!!!
What an amazing person Colin is. I wish I could have the mindset, and life outlook he has.
I'm a psychologist and I have given clients the True Colors Personality Test. I took it myself and I am an orange. The reason why most states dress their inmates in orange is because they are risk takers ( unfortunately illegal risks). We are more visual individuals. We prefer to lead than follow. We think outside the box. Colin is a perfect example of an orange personality. He is visual, even in his stories. He illustrates his experiences. An absolute treasure. Please bring him back again.
That's so interesting, thank you.
the true colors personality test is wishy washy pseudoscience. You might as well do tarot cards and horoscopes while you're at it. This is not scientific and it's not based in fact or research.
I really enjoyed your book "Talking With Horses". Thank you for sharing your wisdom once again. 💙🌎
Always reinventing yourself. You're a good human as well.
Horses are indeed amazing animals. I had a horse growing up. I used to love to brush him because I love the smell of horse hair ( weird, I know).
Good morning from Essington Pa. USA. I really enjoyed this most interesting, conversation, with Mark, and this amazing Aussie gentleman. What an adventerous, jovial and intelligent man.
Thankyou Colin, God bless you. 👍😊🇦🇺🇺🇸 🙏
Thank you for having him back, amazing story teller and what a life!
Love this man !! Words of wisdom. Peace to all on this 4th of July Friday weekend from Philadelphia USA
Many words of wisdom, but also old school.
Things like "men used to control women; now it's obvious that women control men" and the women take all this money in divorces. Yeah, that's the stuff of Colin's generation, and I hope to live long enough to see this kind of whiny stuff die out.
Otherwise, it's a delight to listen to his life story.
He reminds me of Keith Richards
IKR! 😁
I always call myself a "yes" person, but listening to him, it's been more of a high risk life and quite enjoyable❗️
I could listen to Colin for hours. What a fuckin legend he is
I love this interview! Taken many risks. And he is right on!
"I hear you gallop in the night" 😂❤
Colins had a very interesting life.
Such a lovely man.
Good luck Colin 🤞❤️
It is great to have Colin back on your channel. I can listen to him for hours. More interviews like these please. They are absolutely fascinating and appreciated by folks like me.
Always a treat to hear Colin’s stories!
I take after my father, who was a HUGE risk taker. My life has been nothing but major risks, mostly calculated, some spontaneous. I've lost a lot as a result but it's been an adventure to be sure. Glad to see ol' Colin back to regale us with his life's wisdom. He's spot on.
Fantastic story teller - I could listen to him for days & days - inspiring guy
he's got a podcast - so you can! I did!

You deserve to be proud. My husband runs his own business and I'm a retired nurse. We also raised wonderful independent children who now have their own families and have good work ethics. There's a lot of reward from hard work and only well thought out risk😊.
Thank you gentleman for this great conversation this morning.
Oh yeah! I remember this fine fella!
Great interview, thanks, Colin/ Mark🤘
Irs a pure delight to hear Colin talk. I look forward to next time. Thanks Mark ❤
Thanks Mark.
He has not lived my life this advice is only good to a point I took a chance and stood up against abuse now on a watchlist stalked, harassed, Asset Stripped, home trespassing, theft once on the watchlist you never get off! There are thousands like me! Activist, True Tellers, Reporters etc...
yeah, this guy lucked his way into a job by barging into someone's office 40 years ago. These days, that would get you tasered by security and arrested. His advice is not practical, hes just a go-getter who BS'd his way into a nice career. he says it himself, he only got the job because he sailed to the USA in a leaky boat.
One of my favorites ! Thank you Mark !
Great interview Mark. I remember Dr Christian Bernard 😊 My mom was in the hospital after his first successful trasplant. She was in the same elevator as him and she was so excited that she met him. Thank you also to this man fir shareing in this interview. He has some interesting things to say. God bless him and his horse.
Thank you for this post, inspirational people and their stories are a gift!
The biggest risk is not taking any risk... In a world that is changing really quickly, the only strategy that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks. Be brave. Take risks. Cheers Colin! 🍻
He is very interesting to listen to speak.
I absolutely loved this interview. Thank you for this. "if you dont push your spirit..." this was so true and inspirational. The joy of pushing yourself, taking risk, absolutely.
My favorite guest on this channel. I could listen to this guy for hours and hours
Woooo! No way just randomly stumbled upon and finished the first interview yesterday! Really wish I could live like this dude!
can you please get more people like this on, wisdom is a nice change don't u think?
not only is "the risk of war omnipresent," as stated by colin; the reality of multiple ongoing wars is omnipresent, as well.
thankyou mark and colin i love your story and it has given me so much more meaning to living in cairns than id first imagined what and awesome bunch of stories
I love this man. I could listen to him tell stories and his philosophies for days!
Gotta be in it to win it
Love this guy
Good interview
Would love to hear about the national inquirer days
Can listen to him all day... what a legend!
Mark NEVER replies to "good morning Mark 🌻" messages 😂

❤❤❤Yippee, Colin’s Back - I’m loving these characters could listen all day , I love ❤️ his take on Mistakes in life - Sometimes they can feel like they are happening to you , but it turns out it’s happened for you .Thank YOU 🙏 Fifi
Hi from Melbourne Colin and Mark ❤
Horses are such sensitive creatures and I wonder how your horse feels being forced to gallop in the night, in the heavy rain, down hills, through rough country. If that horse slips and falls it's game over for the horse. I know you are chasing feeling anything, feeling fear specifically, but think about how that poor horse feels when you subject it to such terrifying conditions.
Make me proud to be a Queenslander..what a ledgend
"I thought wow! I know what I'm gonna do now!' Goddamn I wish I had even a fraction of his internal motivation. Can't wait to hear more from this man.
Colin IS the most interesting person in the room!!
Good Morning Folks have a great weekend go be great 😁
BELIEF IS THE ENEMY OF KNOWING! When your thinking aligns with truth, you've arrived at the knowing. There are billions of wrong beliefs, but only ONE knowing. ❤
I love this! He is right!
Very interesting. Great interview, wise man.
Hey Mark, thanks for all of the hard work that you do every year. It doesn't matter if you reply or not, but I would like to request some interviews which feature artists, graduates, auto workers, or even medical practictioners.
If you've already interviewed people from these professions would you please upload?
this man is the polar opposite of me... I need this man to speak into my ear daily... "safe=smart"? I just don't know anymore... it's time to tiptoe into the water...
Colin is a product of his time, and that time is long gone. His narrow view on life is obvious, but I'll take his advice about concentrating on one thing and mastering it.
I've tried for years to figure out what it is about Colin that people find so endearing. He's one of the most manipulative, name-dropping self-promoting bullshit artists in Southern California. Not surprised at all that he submitted an application to sit down with Mark just to hear himself talk. Never met a horse wearing one of his "custom-fitted" saddles that wasn't almost crippled from being so backsore. I've kicked his poorly designed saddles off of client horses because they were so poorly-fitted the horses would crumple when you touched their backs, even though they were made specifically for those horses. Just absolutely deplorable.
Maybe it's his accent that makes people think he's interesting and exotic, but all I see is a sexist, smooth-talking snake oil salesman who's gotten very good at taking advantage of people who like to hear a good story.
Gday mate. What a trooper you are sir. Bless ya from Great land down under Cobber
Great insight from a gentleman with a lifetime of experience
AMAZING !
Refreshing to hear his wisdom on life.
U found a winner this time for sure,, thx Mark for all ya do !
Great interview
I love him and I agree....it feeds the spirit
Ahhh, a fellow Australian. Good day from Tasmania Colin ! 🎉🎉
He's very interesting, but once the camera is off and he returns home, at the end of the day, I wonder if he really is as happy as he portrays.
😊Good morning, Mark🌻
What a great interview, interesting aussie bloke , good on ya mate x
I'm surprised that you found 20% that recognized the Declaration of Independence.
THE PUBLIC IS BRAINDEAD!
Excelent Words!😊
I’ve been emailing you for an interview. Serial killer fiance.
This man is on it
This guy rocks!
Good on ya, Colin
I just heard him mention working on the film Man from Snowy River , and the Australian stock saddle which I heard a lot about as my brother is Heath Harris who I’m sure Colin would (past tense) have definitely known as Heath was the horse trainer /wrangler /stunt rider. That amazing scene of the horses& rider charging full pelt down that steep mountain , he broke his
Leg in 16 places during bone of the 6-8 takes .. anyway I wanted to mention this as Heath suddenly took his life in 2022 at the age of 74 , for reasons that I won’t mention here but it’s torn what was left of my family apart .. such a coincidence , I would love to contact Colin to ask if he was friends or knew Heath . Despite what he did , he was certainly an amazing horse man on many levels ,I miss him .
Love it ❤
Good morning!
Hi from Australia 🇦🇺 too 👍
Same
Ditto
What an interesting man, I just love him.❤
interesting and eventful life he has led
Its funny how your attitude toward risk changes over time (at least for me it has). Growing up in Europe and having had a global career, ever since I can think my dream was to come to America. I signed off my last ship in 1995 and came here on a one-way ticket - not knowing anybody, no money, no job/papers etc. There was not a doubt in my mind and fear never even entered the picture. Fast forward 20years, I had to make a decision to move from the east coast to the west coast (technically, another no brainer) took me months and months to contemplate to make the move (also not knowing anybody but equipped with 10x the ability to make the move x-country vs what I had immigrating to the US) Both were without a doubt the best decisions I ever made. I think bad experiences over time, wire you too be more cautious (sometimes needlessly) which is a shame.
I am watching at the moment from Vermont. Enjoying this video. Wondering if you're coming back to Vermont? Would love to meet you. Also wondering if the steeplechase was in South Woodstock?
Enjoyable interview. Not the life I choose, but nice to hear another's take. I prefer risks with a purpose and plan for the future allowing for adjustments. I'd be tired jumping idea to idea. But that's what makes life interesting, how different we all are.
Another fab interview! He is totally crazy but a success nonetheless. Would love to hear one of his ex wives or children's side of his story 😬
Def bring Colin back again, love him ❤
Wonderful very interesting
I guess this is one or the most crucial part to tell a story about Europe! We have a much more secured life then Americans because of the social care system.
The contradictory thing about social care is that one might think that the people think less about risks because they will get medical care for free in all cases. But that's not true.
People are getting more and more anxious about their lives, for whatever reason. And that's why America is making progresws in so many areas like economic development. Americans are used to taking risks on their one while Europeans think, will I be safe or not.
I was a commercial Salmon fisherman. But really all jobs that I worked had some degree of risk.
Hello, Mark, I appreciate the awareness of your channel and how genuine the interviews are. I saw in the channel's description for ad/business info to be directed towards the soft white underbelly website. Unfortunately, I am having difficulties regarding providing contact information through the website. Hopefully, there is another way to reach contact. Thanks
If I may, the way to contact Mark is through the email in this video’s description under the About tab. One email, is as you mentioned, is for business/ad placement and the other is for everything else. If you are having difficulty emailing with the ads email maybe try the other? But the way you worded it “through the website” makes me wonder did you perhaps go to the website? Because what’s provided is an email which doesn’t require going to the website. Hope I’m understanding you and hope that helps.
@clairelumiere2901 Hello, yes thank you for helping and your response. Yes, I believe you understood my comment, the best I could articulate 😅.
Unfortunately, I do not see an email to contact business related to the About Me tab. So with this circumstance, I went to the SWU website, I'm still searching for the email mentioned, since I don't see it. Thank you a lot!
@@addaddtwice . Again, both emails are found in this video’s description under the About tab which is found by clicking “more” near the top of the video under the title and then clicking the About tab at the bottom. I can’t spell them out as my comment gets deleted by the social platform. The best I can do is, if you are looking for the business email it’s the word “ads” and the @ sign followed by the channel’s full name followed by the usual period and c o m. It doesn’t involve going to the website as it’s the email address. That’s all I can offer and good luck!
This guys f^ckn awesome.!!!!!❤❤❤❤#neverholdback #lifecap. Almost forgot thank you Mark ✅️ shit I hope he's right 😂😂😂
