MMS Unplugged

Jeremy catches up with an old partner in crime, Krystal Halcon! Krystal is one of our rare breed – an MMS lifer! Celebrating 20 years in 2025, we chat about Krystal's epic journey here, as well as motherhood, Japan, pizza, introversion, and even aspects of her latest role in cybersecurity.  

Jon and Jeremy chat with yet another new arrival from across the ditch, Ashera Gunatilake, about her then-upcoming (now recent) European holiday, including weighing up the pros and cons of upgrading to Business Class, and visiting Amsterdam's Red-Light District! Plus lots more… 

Jon and Jeremy sit down with the mastermind behind MMS Unplugged – the wonderful Will Clarke, Head of Corporate Communications & Government Relations, and chat about everything from the legendary Manchester music scene to near-death experiences while cycling! 

Jon and Jeremy chat with tender writer Dom, who is new to MMS and fresh from Wellington, New Zealand. Dom covers all the intricacies of shifting to a new country, including an amusing story from the run club that he has joined, plus a bit of friendly trans-Tasman rivalry!

Jon and Jeremy sit down with one of MMS's youngest and most talented copywriters, Rachel Baillie. Rachel was formerly part of our Digital team but recently moved into the Corporate Communications and Government Relations team.

Tender writer Lisa Cotela speaks to Jon about the arduous process of tender writing, how she met her husband Brian in Ireland through a salsa dancer named Fabio… and her Brian's boutique mustard business! Check it out at munstermustard.com.au

MMS's partnership with Jigsaw Australia has already been a huge success, with a number of our trainees since finding full-time employment. Here we sit down with Jigsaw Australia CEO Paul Brown to hear more about this fantastic collaboration and why our work with Jigsaw is so important. 

 There are so many people at MMS who have encountered the wonderful and enigmatic Matthias Kehle. For those hundreds and all who haven't had the pleasure, get to know one of MMS's stalwarts, now on his “third tour”.  

In this week's episode of MMS Unplugged, we welcome a new host, Deepak Khanna, as well as a very special guest, Cheryl Charilaou-Ung, who gives us a unique insight into the PSS side of the business both from a professional and personal point of view, as a carer for a child with a disability.  

Jon and Jeremy go long speaking to Wayne Wescott, CEO of Greenfleet, MMS's carbon offsetting partner and facilitator of our wonderful tree-planting volunteering days.  

We apologise for the mic rumble on this episode; we are working to remediate this issue.
