Dan and Harman welcome Max Miller into the studio. Max has directed for Australian television series including Australian Epic and Aunty Donna's Coffee Café. He is also an unsung member of Aunty Donna, often working behind the scenes and directing for various projects. It was a privilege to have Max on the podcast.

We talk about the ins and outs of directing, the decisions a director has to make, the responsibilities of the director, being a jack of all trades, reflecting on earlier projects, making short films, gravitating towards dramatic & cinematic stylings, studying at Swinburne University, the first paid gig, film influences, telling his Mum he was going to be a director, working as an assistant editor, doing as much work as you can to find opportunity, finding your favourite hobby and turning it into a job, burnout, artificial intelligence, Aunty Donna, musical comedy, Australian Epic (then still titled Stories from Oz), and a lot more!
