Uni life can be great fun. But what happens when you are the first in your family who goes to uni? What are the issues and pressures one has to face and overcome? And how do you manage to get through uni without the financial support of your family?

The three eyewitnesses, Anastasia, Cat & second-time guest Zac Wylde, chat about their experiences when studying on a budget and being the first in the family to go to uni and how they overcame these hurdles.
