Welcome to TOP LINES AND TOP TALES, the introduction to a brand new podcast coming online soon. for those who don't know me, my name is Andy Frazier.
Over the coming months I intend to catch up with some well known characters within the livestock industry and have a chew the fat over tales from our past. The intention is that interviews will be unstructured, only lightly edited and most of all fun. Interspersed with these I also have a number of previously recorded interviews with stockmen who are sadly no longer with us.

Your weekly livestock podcast
Toplines and Tales tries its best to capture characters and events in time from the world’s livestock industry and not only bring them to the listener in an entertaining way but to preserve them forever. I am always willing to take ideas from listeners for podcast subjects, so please do get in contact. You can find our group on Facebook, so please join in the fun.
