About the Podcast

“Introducing Early Quakers” is a monthly podcast presented by Silver Wattle Quaker Centre, exploring the lives and legacy of the first generation of Friends. Each episode offers a spiritually grounded profile of a 17th-century Quaker who helped shape the beginnings of the Religious Society of Friends.

The series was created by Michael Corbett, a Queensland Quaker whose deep leading emerged following a 2023 course on early Quakers at Silver Wattle. His ministry of storytelling draws from historical sources, personal reflection, and worshipful study.

Each episode opens with a short introduction read by Ann Zubrick, a board member of Silver Wattle and member of Western Australia Regional Meeting. Her voice offers a warm welcome into these reflections on faith, resistance, and spiritual courage.

Episodes release monthly on the 5th of each month, beginning 5 October 2025, with the first focusing on George Fox.
