About this episode
Tammy Davis shares his personal struggles and journey of self-discovery in a candid conversation with Dave Letele.
This week, Dave sits down with Tammy Davis — actor, radio host, and storyteller — for a raw kōrero about the life behind the public image. This is a side of Tammy you haven’t seen before. From growing up in a small town to struggling to find his place after moving to Auckland, he opens up about getting caught up in drugs, alcohol, and violence — and how close he came to a path he might not have come back from. He also speaks for the first time about what really happened at George FM, and how being let go after eight years forced him to reset. Through it all, this is a story about perspective — understanding where you come from, and finding purpose in telling real, everyday stories people can actually relate to. Hosted on Acast.
