Bartley McGowan – Spontaneous and Dedicated to Supporting Others – Part 2

In Part 2 of this episode of For One Night Only (FONO), Pete Holmes talks further to his very special guest co-host, Bartley McGowan about his mixtape. Bartley has worked as a public sector trainer and is a qualified social worker. He also worked for some time as a volunteer support worker at the Victorian Aids Council during the height of the Aids Epidemic. Since retirement, he’s been living a spontaneous life! His mixtape and story lead us on a journey that explores his life over the years from being the son of immigrant parents from Ireland and includes songs that reflect the many things he has done in his life so far including acting, ballet, piano and his travels.

Here’s the list of Bartley’s songs but you’ll have to listen to find out more about each song:
