Kobe Steele: From Music TV Pioneer to Wildlife Champion
Jan 24, 2025 Season 2 Episode 9
Guy Rowlison & Kayley Harris

This week on The Big 6-Oh, we welcome the trailblazing Kobe Steele (OAM). In the 1970s, Kobe made history as the first woman in Australia to host her own TV music show. Today, she’s channeling that pioneering spirit into a new passion: conservation.

Kobe is a tireless campaigner and advocate for orangutans, fighting to protect Borneo’s ancient rainforests and the critically endangered species that depend on them.

In this episode, Kobe takes us through her extraordinary journey — from breaking barriers in television to her inspiring efforts to save some of our planet’s most vulnerable wildlife. Don’t miss this conversation with a true force for change!
