In this episode, I welcome Minh Bui Jones to the studio, a man who made his way over to Australia as young boy, while finding refuge from Vietnam in the late 70’s with his family. To summarise his story in any way does it no justice, so I’ll leave it to you to have a listen for yourself. But to me, it's a story of compassion and perseverance, something we can all do with a little right now.

In this episode, I welcome Richard Kavanagh to the studio, a multi award winning hair stylist, turned tech entrepreneur, who epitomises the definition of rebel, in every sense of the word. Having grown up with a conservative upbringing in New Zealand during the 80's, Richard rejected the academic vision his family had for him and in doing so, threw himself into a world of self exploration through fashion, drugs, and rock n'roll. Although his creative spirit shined through, it was his lack of discipline that made him feel lost, that is until he found the art of karate to bring him back in line ..read more

In this episode of the podcast, I welcome fellow photographer, Frederick McHenry to the studio. Originally from South Atlanta, Frederick always felt like he was being put into a box growing up. He knew there was more outside of where he was being told to stay and it took crossing the Pacific Ocean and landing himself in South Korea to see what he had been missing. Freddie XX, as he's known on the gram, takes us on a wild journey in this episode, sharing how he went from selling designer streetwear in college to make extra cash, to then modelling it, and now shooting it for the likes of Hypebea ..read more

In this episode of the podcast, I welcome Jack Phillips to the studio, a journalist, turned content maker that now calls Sydney home. Having grown up in East London via Essex in the late 90's and early 2000's, football and lad culture seemed to be the only way to relate. Shaved heads and Puma tracksuits were the uniform and footballers like David Beckham were the inspiration. Like many of us, it took heading out to University for Jack to see what else was out there and work out who he wanted to be. After some experimental haircuts and the discovery of TOPSHOP, it was his first job at Monocle m ..read more
