HERstory for Slice Radio

Danny Yau is the voice, creator, producer, and everything to do with the Just Ace 90s podcast. 

The podcast was launched in late September, with the season closing out earlier this month.

Danny just wanted to put it out just because, and didn’t expect the popularity it has received. 

100,000 plus downloads and being rated the number one Australian music podcast.

When we talked, it was like chatting to a mate while leaning on the Annandale Hotel bar listening to another brilliant band own the stage. 

He chose a chance to appear on HERstory Podcast as his only interview in 2022, in support of indie podcasts.

University of Southern Queensland Associate Professor, Dr Susan Hopkins discusses her research paper 'Rihanna’s empire of pain: sexualised violence and the black Madonna'.

We talk about  the rise, and rise and rise of RhiRhi, who is now a billionaire. She is the second wealthiest female entertainer on the planet after Oprah Winfrey.

Dr Hopkins explores Rhianna's Madonna-like ambition and how she's exceeded Madonna in building a career on the back of eroticism and gendered violence through music and her lingerie brand Savage x Fenty.

This week I chat with the lovely and driven Jannah Beth. 
A lady surely not driven by how Spotify dictates songs are made. 

She has a unique sound popping out underground whatever is called ‘alternate’ these days. 

Her sound is an eclectic mesh of hip hop, indie pop, soul and electronica. 
As she sings, she’s in her own lane. 

And proud! 
And I love it!

Offbeat Collective is the studio slash second home she runs in Marrickville which is the creative palace for talented musicians, visual storytellers and artists with 50%  female/non-binary residents.

Jannah is truly an amazing musician.
