A three time cancer survivor Michael lost his left leg to bone cancer at age nine. He refused to let this stop his love of skiing and went to his first Paralympic Games aged just 14. The rest, as they say, is history. With 6 paralympic gold medals, Michael Milton Michael has won half of Australia’s total winter paralympic gold medals.

He holds the world record for a skier with a disability, reaching 213.65 km/h - on one leg!

Michael retired from competitive sport after competing at the Beijing Paralympic Games in 2008 - becoming one of four Paralympic athletes to compete at both Summer and Winter Games. But in August 2025 he decided he wasn’t done with the Paralympics, deciding to come back and try and qualify for the Milano-Cortina 2026 Paralympic Games.

The personification of resilience Michael shares his story of overcoming obstacles, setting big goals and the genesis of his alter-ego Nearly Legless Mick!

Welcome back to another episode of Campbells & Co! In this episode, Cate and Bronte discuss the evolution of social media and explore how it helped shape each of their Olympic experiences from Beijing 2008 through to Paris 2024.

Social media can get a bad wrap, and it can negatively impact performance. However, there are many positive aspects to social media. From giving athletes more agency, to a chance to build fans and interact with their community, to increasing earning potential. With great power comes great opportunities - just make sure you have the right guardrails in place.

Cate and Bronte share how they navigated their use of social media and provide practical tips for young athletes.

We hope you enjoy this episode of Campbells & Co.

It’s Winter Olympics time! AKA it’s time for the most terrifying, anxiety inducing two weeks of TV you will ever see. Whether is watching someone plunge down a mountain at 140km per hour, launching themselves either off a cliff or down an icy wall pretending to be a ‘half pipe’ or gliding and twirling across the ice with blades strapped to their feet, there is no denying that there is something a bit nuts about winter sports athletes.

Cate and Bronte unpack some of the biggest moments of the Milano 2026 Winter Olympic Games. Australia is currently sitting 11th on the medal table - ahead of countries like Canada. We have 3 gold medalists, Cooper Woods, Josie Baff and Jakara Anthony. A silver for Scotty James and a bronze for Matt Graham. This has been our most successful Australian Winter Olympics team in History .

And we unpack some of the major international headlines, King Klaebo from Norway who picked up his 9th gold medal - 4th from these Games. Lindsey Vonn - was she courageous or selfish? And THAT post race interview from biathlete Sturla Laegried. So many stories to discuss. Hope you enjoy this ep.

In this episode of Campbells&Co Cate and Bronte share their Origin Story. From the small African country, Malawi, all the way to the top of the Olympic podium, these two sisters have come a long way.

Despite being related and having the same career, Cate and Bronte are very different and these differences were evident right from when they were little. A funny, uplifting insight into how two very different sisters managed to achieve the same dream.

They share funny anecdotes from their childhood - including how insufferable Bronte was as a child - and take you behind the scenes of a very dramatic Olympics in 2012 where Cate was struck down by pancreatitis days before her races.
