    On this episode, Osher speaks with Antonia Murphy, discussing her experience running an ethical escort agency in New Zealand, where sex work is fully decriminalised. Her brilliant book is called Madam - it’s out now and it’s such a sensation it’s becoming a whole TV series. This chat covers the broader idea of human connection, dignity, and the impact of modern technology on relationships. Antonia’s approach to her industry has always centred on consent, safety, and professionalism, challenging stereotypes while highlighting society's complex relationship with intimacy and pleasure.

    Blair Joscleyne aka MOOG is one half of the global Aussie YouTube phenomenon “Mighty Car Mods”. He’s also a prolifically talented multi-instrumentalist and composer who has created the soundtracks to hundreds, even thousands of commercials that you could probably whistle. The Maccas jingle? If you heard it in Australia, Blair played it. Same guy. Not only that Blair is one of the hosts of Top Gear Australia, and alongside JLP and Beau Ryan they are taking this legendary show that was never really about cars and turning it on its head.

    The secret to Ada Nicodemou’s 30-plus year career on screen

    Think for a moment, what  would happen if you had a dream career, pilot, engineer, drummer - and your family absolutely did not back you in what you were trying to achieve.   You’re a teenager. They have your best interests at heart, they love you and just want success for you, but you might have other ideas. Would you try anyway? That’s pretty much what happened with Ada Nicodemou. For 31 years she’s been on Australian screens, and now she’s on our bookshelves with the release of a new series of books titled “Mia Megastar”, aimed kids 8 and up. Today she speaks with Osher about her path to success, what keeps her successful, and why books are so important for growing minds.

    Sylvia Jeffreys on the juggle and the guilt of kids and a career

    A few highlights from when Osher spoke with Sylvia Jefferies, an incredibly accomplished journalist and presenter, originally from Brisbane Australia. Sylvia has a matter-of-fact, get-after-it vibe about her which makes the career success she’s had make perfect sense. Sylvia is very open about how she juggles family life and home life, also how she has found particularly interesting ways to deliberately work emotional regulation into her day so she’s able to go back home to her kids after a day exposing herself to the unedited grim realities of the world.

  7. Ensuring the hammer of AI is a tool that builds, not a hammer that demolishes. w/ Dr Matt Agnew

    OCT 29

    Ensuring the hammer of AI is a tool that builds, not a hammer that demolishes. w/ Dr Matt Agnew

    Here’s Osher’s three favourite facts about Dr Matt Agnew: He’s not that kind of doctor. He’s lovely. He has a PhD in Astrophysics. Matt has been busy, heading back to uni to study AI - and on the back of that he’s written a new book “IS MY PHONE READING MY MIND?”   What he has to say today about AI, about the powerfully transformative effect it is already having on education, and democracy - in both positive and negative ways - might just chill you to the bone and give you goosebumps at the same time.   This was recorded a week out from the 2024 US election, so please understand why I’m Osher isn’t commenting on something which is now glaringly obvious to us as a community. He’s in the past. It’s simple time travel. And there’s no better person to speak to about that than Dr Matt Agnew. Enjoy the show. Subscribe to the substack here Hosted on Acast.
