EP 31 - LIVE YOUR DREAMS EVERY DAY - RAY WARREN
The Voice of Rugby League
Ray ‘Rabbits’ Warren is the legendary voice of Australian sports commentary. The son of a railway worker, Ray placed his first bet on a horse called Playboy at the age of just six, and won. A lifelong love of the track – and the punt – was born.
During his remarkable broadcasting career, which has now spanned almost five decades, Ray has called three Melbourne Cups, Commonwealth and Olympic Games swimming, and countless rugby league matches alongside his mates Fatty, Sterlo and Gus. In this episode we dicover the man behind the microphone. He speaks with great passion, colour and candour, about his life, career and more.
In this episode we cover:
- Determination in achieving your goals
- Why is it important to be a dreamer, but also do the hard yards
- Learning from those that have gone before you
- The secret of the phantom call
- Is less really best?
- His parents role in his success
- What lessons has Rabs passed on to his own kids?
- Rituals and routines
- How to stay positive when the chips are down
- How his upbringing has affected his life
- Is he still dreaming?
- Plus we couldn't chat with Rabs without touching on a few things Rugby League. Who does he support? Who are some of the players and coaches that live long in his memory?
