On the first season of the Milkshakes for Marleigh podcast, Brenden Hall thanked the Australian blood donors who saved his life when, at age 6, he had complications from Chicken Pox that resulted significant hearing loss and his leg being amputated.
Kate Fisher recorded this interview with Brenden in late 2022 and he reflected on his disapointment about his Tokyo 2020(1) Paralympics, the realities of becoming a new Dad to his then 10 week old son and what he wanted the legacy of his swimming career to be. At the time he didn't know if he would wear the green and gold ever again, he is now Australia's flagbearer for the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games.
