PODCAST RELENTLESS | THE FIGHT FOR SEA COUNTRY IN WESTERN AUSTRALIA | EPISODE 132 | 10 JANUARY 2026
In this episode of Relentless, Courage Is The Cure is joined by Martine Shepherd, founder of Save Our Beloved Geographe Bay — and for this conversation, Martine steps in as co‑host, bringing her sharp community insight and deep commitment to protecting WA’s coastline.
Together, we sit down with Mason Jones, a 37‑year‑old fishing activist and wind‑farm protestor from Bunbury. Born and raised on Wardandi Country, Mason carries a lifetime of connection to Sea Country: commercial fisherman, recreational fisher, cultural custodian, and now a father raising his own family by the same waters that shaped him. His relationship with the ocean is lived, learned, and inherited — passed down through elders, family, and story. It’s a connection he honours in the name of his youngest child, Wardarn, meaning “ocean” in his language.
This conversation dives into the healing power of water, the cultural and ecological stakes of the current fight, and what it means to defend a coastline that listens, provides, and holds memory. With Martine co‑hosting, the dialogue becomes both sharper and more grounded — a meeting of lived experience, community advocacy, and cultural truth.
This is a story about place, identity, and the courage required when the tide is turning.
