Episode 116: iOTA
When it comes to folks who ensure their life is surrounded by art, it’s hard to look past iOTA. Having launched into the world of music and drama as a teenager, both of these disciplines have been vital parts...
Episode 115: Ron Hitler-Barassi & Humphrey B. Flaubert – TISM
I’m going to preface things this week by saying this is going to be far from anything close to a normal podcast. ‘Why?’ I hear you ask, well, it’s because this week’s guests are TISM co-founders Ron Hitler-Barassi and Humphrey...
Episode 114: Tex Perkins
I don’t think I’m talking out of school when I say that Tex Perkins is a man who wears many hats (and oh my, does he ever look stylish when he does). If you’re a casual consumer of music, then...
Episode 113: Josh Law & Ben Sadler – Getdown Services
As far back as I remember, I’ve never been someone to really find myself attracted to bands that generate a lot of ‘buzz’. I mean, I remember realising as a kid that I had to listen to a song numerous...
Episode 112: Harvey Geraghty, Leon Karagic & Itay Shachar – The Lazy Eyes

Episode 109: Eric Michener – Fishboy
When I first started this podcast, I made a wishlist of people I wanted to chat to. I’ve still not achieved my most-wanted artist (but I came close earlier this year!), but one of those first names I put on...
Episode 108: Pinky Beecroft – Machine Gun Fellatio
Has there ever been a musician harder to categorise than Pinky Beecroft? (Okay, for those saying Frank Zappa or Ween, that was more of a rhetorical question, so please hold onto your opinions for the end.) For the vast majority...
Bonus Episode 8: Luka Kilgariff-Johnson, Thea Martin, Allan McBean, Jay Eliot Mee & Sam Wilson – Any Young Mechanic
I say this a lot, but as a former Adelaidean, I really do enjoy listening and chatting to musicians from South Australia. If you’re someone whose finger has firmly been on the pulse of the City of Churches’ music scene,...
