Show Notes
🎙️ In This Powerful Episode of the 2 Worlds Collide Podcast, I sit down with Cam Hardiman — a former Victorian Police officer and federal agent who spent decades on Australia’s front lines.
From chasing violent offenders to working in immigration enforcement, Cam’s career exposed him to the harsh realities of crime, broken systems, and the real toll frontline workers carry.
In this episode, we dive into the growing pressure police face in 2025 — from mass immigration impacts, to the Footscray shooting, to the growing feeling that those who serve are being hung out to dry.
But this conversation goes deeper than headlines.
We talk about Cam’s personal battles — including his struggle with PTSD — and what it takes to rebuild after life in uniform.
This is real-world experience — not filtered, not political — just the truth from someone who’s lived it.
