MUD BETWEEN YOUR TOES, CONVERSATIONS WITH NIGEL SIMMONDS, EATING THE WIND. In my first podcast of the year, I am joined by editor, publisher and author of Eating the Wind. Nigel Simmonds has spent more than half his life in Asia — in Hong Kong, Singapore and Indonesia — chronicling the lives and foibles of the rich and famous as a columnist for the South China Morning Post's once-revered Lai See column, before taking the helm of the high society glossy magazine Tatler and Bali’s sophisticated The Yak Magazine. He chats to me about his latest book, Eating the Wind and discusses the highs and lows of trying to escape the rat race.

This podcast is all about vaginas—medical grade vaginas. I speak to “Vagina Betty” McCarthy about—err—vaginas. And a few other body parts.
Season 03 - Episode 23 of MUD BETWEEN YOUR TOES CONVERSATIONS WITH PETER WOOD. I first met Erica “Vagina Betty” McCarthy back in 2008 in Hong Kong. She was on her way to a factory in China to see her first ever prototype medical grade vagina. “What the hell is a medical grade vagina?” I asked. My scant knowledge of false vaginas stretched to rather awful products in the window of Ann Summers. You can listen to Erica patiently explain the importance life-like body parts (and vaginas) play in the medical world.

Season03, Episode 20 - Last week, South Africa experienced some of the worst violence in modern times. The rainbow nation, with arguably the world’s most liberal constitution, erupted into violent riots, sparked by a toxic mix of unemployment, corruption, political tension, and tribal nationalism following the jailing of former President Jacob Zuma.
As the world looked on in shock, I ask veteran journalist, Peta Thornycroft, how Africa’s poster child for equality and economic progress, descended into such chaos.

When South African journalist, Mary Lloyd, moved from Hong Kong to Australia to work for the ABC, she thought her dream of big skies and 4WD road trips had come true.
Her husband, Channel 10 newsreader Hugh Riminton and their 3 young children were ill-prepared for the heartbreaking cancer battle Mary had to endure – and right in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic.
