Shaun Blackwell is an incredible songwriter and performer. I was lucky enough to create a hardcore band back in the day with him called Upheld. His main music project now is Hemi Hemingway, look him up, listen to his music and be impressed. He's a legend and a great friend and I loved this chat we had about how life has been for him for the last 20 years. Don't even really know if it's a convo that'll make sense to people that don't know us, so for everyone that DOES, enjoy!

Jojo is a great person and talented songwriter. In conversation and within his music and lyrics he's straight up, vulnerable and honest about his perspective and his mental health challenges. Stoked to have a friendship with Jojo, and for them giving up their time to sit down with me.

Sam and Matilda are great people, super funny and they love supporting bands and artists. Follow them on instagram @tuneswiththetwiins and browse their feed as you listen to my chat with them which they kindly scheduled into their very busy Melbourne trip

DARTZ are a kiwi band that you'd have to be pretty dead inside to not have fun listening to. Good dudes that are all working hard to be able to do what they love - touring, playing gigs and writing songs. They opened for The Chats, theyre on an Australia tour right now, including gigs at SxSW festival and are gearing up to release their new album early 2024.

Mae loves music and her mates and sometimes people think she's someone else.

Nick Capper is a brilliant standup, comic actor and podcast host for The Phone Hacks, Flat Stick and Brew Dudes. Was great to sit down with him and chat about a bunch of stuff. 

I'm still trying to figure out what to do with this solo podcast, in this episode Tori flips the script and becomes the interviewer, and asks a bunch of questions about what I've been thinking about and what I want to do with this podcast

Candy Moore makes great music and is a lovely dude. He's had some well deserved recognition for his talent recently with his remix of the Microsoft Teams ringtone and he's done tons of others including the Abbie Chatfield "Ketamine" banger. For this episode Candy had me over at his home studio.

The Instagram algorithm knows me too well and a while ago it basically went "Hey Cam, you emotional man. We know you consume a bunch of self care and therapy content, here's some from a Heartbreak Coach named Wendy!" and as always, the Instagram algorithm knew best. Wendy's a Heartbreak and Divorce Coach and is super switched on about how to heal and move on from tough things you've been through. You'll love it. Unless you're old school and still trying to impress your grandad by burying your emotions, and yelling at sport on the tv - then you might flick past it. 

I caught up with the very talented content creator and musician, MIKI about her music, her TikToks and the large amount of people she seems to have offended in her comments section.
