  • "Don't Be Honest With Your Friends" (w/ Jeremy Franco)

    This week, I’m joined Content Creator and Presenter, Jeremy Franco. Jeremy talks about seeing Jennifer Lopez and Benito Skinner at Prime Video’s Obsessed Fest. He offers advice around making plans with people, the pitfalls of being honest to your friends, and the importance of making your job sound fun. We ask the very important question, “What do Creative Directors do?” while I defend myself against claims I’m anti straight people playing hockey and share my belief that Microsoft Excel is dark magic. If you like arriving at the airport 3 hours before your flight or like your name called out because it makes you feel famous, then this is the pod for you.

  • "Nepo Wiggles" (w/ Freya Morton)

    This week, I’m joined by my favourite (not one of) crowd work comedians, Freya Morton. Freya and I catch up about what’s been going on since she moved to Melbourne and found love. We talk about the responsibilities of cat-sitting, the importance of sunscreen, and how difficult it is to make friends as an adult. Freya thinks she should be able to wake up whenever she wants and explains who is who in the Australian music scene. I start campaigning for her to be able to say the f-slur and why I love Emma Memma. It’s a such a fun and funny ep, and our last for 2 weeks while I take a little break to move house. So please pray for me, or even better, share the pod with a friend.

  • "Mariah, You're On Notice" (w/ Christian Wilkins)

    This week, I’m joined by model and presenter, Christian Wilkins. Christian and I talk about what the "most delicious" role to be in the family dynamic would be, how our love of the pop girlies is only matched by the love we have for our brothers, and how ‘ambition’ has become a bad word. Christian gives advice around embracing your imperfections, and why we shouldn't "play it cool", and listener Marcel writes in asking us why his friend won’t post about him on socials. It’s a beautiful episode. Even more beautiful than a Jardan couch.

  • "Friend or Friendly?" (w/ AJ Lamarque)

    This week, I’m joined by comedian, star basketballer, and Ancient Egypt enthusiast, AJ Lamarque. AJ and I discuss gay cruises, the types of passengers to look of for on planes, and carving a different and interesting path in the comedy circuit. AJ pitches his “Pool Theory” when it comes to how to spend your time and gives his two cents to a listener who has busted a friend on Grindr. I reveal my totally normal way of counting time and preach the concept of radical self-reliance as if I didn’t steal it from the Burning Man principles. AJ is touring UK and Europe, details are via the link in his bio.

  • "My Grandfather, Avril Lavigne" (w/ Sam Wade)

    This week, I’m joined by comedian and girl dad, Sam Wade. Sam talks about his disdain for dancing, his love of mosasaurs, and flirts a little with me and my beautiful eyelashes. I share the tips and tricks from years of management training and while learning that I shouldn’t be a martyr and that my tight jaw is not just a disadvantage as a gay man, but could be a sign of neurodivergence. It’s a gorgeous chat. Sam’s performing his show “It Takes A Village, Idiot” at the end of June in Sydney. Check out his Insta for details.

  • "Progressive Ghosts" (w/ Jess Fuchs)

    This week, I’m joined by comedian, MC and queer ally, Jess Fuchs. We talk thrifting, Buddhism, and how the worst things to happen to you can be the funniest. Jess tries to convince me that doing things out of vengeance can be positive and that fluro green is a non-binary colour. I share my hot take on Yochi and ponder whether or not I’m a gym bro. It’s such a fun episode, one that Jess puts her body on the line for countless times, but it’s just testament to what a consummate professional she is.

    Jess is performing a series of shows as part of Qtopia Sydney's Pride Fest. You can find the details, plus the vast array of events happening here.

  • "Obama did WHAT?" (w/ Pete Deppeler)

    This week I’m joined by my friend, former colleague and famous radio intern, Pete Deppeler. We talk about all things radio; the lengths he went to get interviews with the Modern Family cast, how he didn’t pay for flights for ten years, and his switch from The Kyle & Jackie O Show and KIIS to his new home on The Christian O’Connell Show. Pete tries to pillage my data and persuade me to charge for premium content. While I, with my husky voice, share the draconian rules my parents had for using the landline and try and blag a free pair of shoes from ASICS. It’s always a fun chat with Pete. Lots of lols and (mostly) some good advice too. I hope you enjoy it!

  • "Trust Your Body, Trust Your Soul" (w/ Jarryd Prain)

    This week, I'm joined by 2023 RAW National finalist, Jarryd Prain. We talk about what Nicole Scherzinger is best known for, the worst case scenario when asking someone out, and determine when is the best time for butt stuff. Jarryd reveals that he loved the Pink Power Ranger and that he wants to go on MAFS while I’m stuck reminiscing about The Thundercats and confessing I identify with Lisa Simpson. It’s a great ep, there is something for anyone that farts.

  • "Chanel No. 5" (w/ Nick White)

    This week, I’m joined by the talented Mr Nick White. We talk skin care routines, Australian Idol reunions, and the strategic use of thirst traps to sell stuff. Nick tells us how Dave ‘Hughesy’ Hughes makes him think and helps a listener Nina with some advice after she heard too much. While I, with my full head of hair, start to question if I should start catching Didis, and if Zoë Kravitz is a vampire.

     

    If you’re in Brisbane, you can catch Nick perform “Nick White’s Talent Night” at The Powerhouse on May 21.

  • "Aioli" (w/ Edan McGovern)

    This week, I'm joined by comedian, MC and one half of the Nobody Asked podcast, Edan McGovern. We talk about restoring the balance of quiet gays, our respective grandmother’s thoughts on global warming, and how fascism wants you to be skinny. Edan says you should kiss your friends but also, you don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do, as long as you’re willing to face the punishment of death. I talk about ordering from the breakfast menu at Flash nightclub and being a proud people pleaser. And we both agree that self-care has limits. Grab some chips and aioli or aoli and enjoy!
