It was on a foggy morning where Ryan is met with 'jack of all trades' Marshall Stay. These two chatted about: the smoky weather, vast Australian geography, memories are the new snapchat, Theatrical musings, Plan B's becoming Plan A's and the rave about The Raver. So come a board and watch your step, there's some swearing about.

In this philosophical chapter of the chronicles, Ryan reunites with old comrade Jennah Bannear, the carpenter, teacher, actor, producer, writer and puppeteer. They talked about: racial casting, ghost stories, one of life hardest wants, greedy films and legendary Australian artist John Waters.

So it is in a tea fuel rage that we see Ryan reuniting with an old comrade, the versatile and kind James Taylor. Under the roof a "Spanish Castile", the boys chat about the Yirra Yaakin Theatre Company, purpose of everything, Social media empires and dreams that turn into reality. ALSO if you stick around there's a sing-along at the end.

Ryan ventures forth, beyond the river to the southern lands of Fremantle, where he is greeted by the spectacular and kind Bridget Le May. An awarding winning artist of both film and theatre, Bridget Le May regales Ryan with talk of: Saint Pythagoras, the discipline of ageing, artistic visions from completing admin and a collection of doodles. May you all enjoy this new "polished easy listening Thingymadoo"!

After nine years, Ryan finally catches up with award winning playwright and director Hellie Turner. A true master of the pen and speech. In the fair but noisy town of Woodbridge, Ryan and Hellie talked about: proper coarse language, going forth, the bleak reality of being an artist and the new arts capital, Midland! Yes there are a few F**** here and there, but there are hunks of wisdom throughout this chapter to balance it all out.

The tables has turned because this week's author, Courtney Turner visits a confused Ryan in his lair. What expedited to be a stormy episode turned out to be quite a zen one. As an old friendship is renewed and thoughts being poked and giggled at. Conversation included: ensemble power, the far east, DRAMATURGE and old stories telling new tales. And yes on this horizon coarse language comes into view. Welcome, sit back and today's recommend wine is a cuppa.

In this chapter, Ryan is warmly greeted by director Glenn Hayden and his inspirational garden. Above many observations and clippings they discuss: teaching critical debate to corporate robots, the birth of the Blueroom Theatre and the saving grace that is gardening. Please also find the occasional coarse word or sentence in this episode. And remember "It's my fault", enjoy.

Chapter Five brings Ryan to the table of candid writer Bethyanne Braciegirdle. Beth is not only the author of this colourful episode but is also the author of the witty and insightful blog "Mere Ink". Please check it out asap. Ryan is thrilled and amazed as both him and Beth touched on: border town surgery, collecting refugee stories and WA's GST problem. And yes, course language makes a brief cameo appearance in this chapter of The Perthian Chronicles.

In this chapter we get to see Ryan meet with the Wizard behind Tempest Production's curtains, Susie Conte, an active and passionate student of the theatrical arts. This episode is fortunately littered with advice, talk about clamming ones artistry, HOLLYWOOD and WA's Mollie Skinner. Also Ryan finally gets to gabble Shakespeare with a fellow lover of the classics.

In this chapter of the chronicles a weary Ryan is joined by the thoughtful Zach Sheridan. Tune in as we get to hear our heros stare out of an actual window and muse about: Climate Change, Fraser, the capability of Chicken arithmetic, Mental Health and the hope that one day the world will focus on the "economy of care", preferably before 2027 arrives. And beware, for coarse language lurks within this chapter.
