G’day, welcome to How Ya Goin’?

You’ll know my mate in this episode as the most talented and best-looking Cosmic Psycho: the star of the show, John “Mad Macka” McKeering.

Macka is one of the most interesting blokes I know. Not only can he shred like no one else, but as he tells it, he’s had four careers.

The first of them, was as a swimming coach. He was bloody handy as a swimmer himself, but found his calling helping others hone their craft.

His second career was being a lawyer and his third was as a public servant. He’s also got a degree in political science and a master of arts in musicology.

But of course, his most constant career, is as a musician. Before he started with the Psychos, he was one-third of the Brisbane band, The Onyas. They played balls-to-the-wall punk rock that didn’t give a shit what anyone thought.

Which is why he slipped right in after Robbie Rocket left us.

Get it inta ya.

How Ya Goin'? is produced by Sam Loy, a documentary maker, podcast and radio producer, and wannabe rock star. He started making audio content as a hobby, producing the documentary show Human/Ordinary. The right people heard the show and he started getting offers for work.

Since then, he's worked with the likes of Louis Theroux (The Louis Theroux Podcast), Marc Fennel (Not Alone - Beyond Blue), and Alexis Fernandez (Rule Benders - Samsung), and is very chuffed about making a 10 part book adaptation about an infamous 1944 plot to kill Hitler (Treason).

He has enjoyed every moment of working on How Ya' Goin'?, except for driving home from Ross' farm late at night, dodging 37 kangaroos with a death wish.
