The other one is call the Last of the Nomads. It based on a story about a couple of the old people man and women.

Hey guy we back in Wiluna after spending the night at Windidda Station with the local an elders getting they story and how the government is failing our people. I just wanted to thanks Roy Walker and Steven Walker for going hunting yesterday and getting us some meat more or less big bull for dinner and feeding us all. So Thank you brothers for getting us some meat for us all and giving us some meat for the road for Laverton to Warburton.
Hey Clinton, best wishes and strong support for your walk! At the moment I am reading “Position Doubtful” and loving it. It is all about Tanami country and Mangkurrurpa up north of where you are now.
I live in Melbourne on Wurrundjeri land and I hope to see you when you come to these parts. The distances you are crossing are epic.
