The Croc Lady
Well G'day! This could be THE most Australian story you’ve ever heard. A couple of years ago I was lucky enough to have a chat with the ICONIC Vicki Lowing – AKA The Croc Lady. It's still one of my favourite conversations to date, so I thought we'd take a peak back in history and re-visit it. Enjoy!

ESports Caster
Hello! I’ve got a lovely episode for you today. It’s a chat with the wonderful Joy K - an Esports caster and host currently based in Stockholm. If you don’t know much about the gaming world, please do not fret! My experience begins and ends with the sims as a teenager. But I’ve always been intrigued.
We speak about what it’s like as a woman in the industry and trolling, as well as the ins and outs of the gaming world.

The Dancing Plague
Welcome back to the "With Mon" podcast. I'm your host, Monika O'Hanlon, and I am thrilled to have your company today. It is a very special episode because this one was requested by Steph, a lovely listener in Western Australia. I had never heard of "The Dancing Plague" until Steph reached out - such an interesting moment in history. Really enjoyed making this one, so thank you so much for requesting it Steph.
Today, we're going back in time, revisiting a remarkable event that unfolded in the city of Strasbourg, wayyyy back when. This historical phenomenon, known as the Strasbourg Dancing Plague, is truly bizarre... and absolutely fascinating. I hope you like it!

The Michelin Man
Welcome back to another episode of the "with Mon" podcast. I'm your host, Monika O'Hanlon, and today, we’re looking at a story I literally had NO idea about. We're diving into the delightful tale of a tyre mascot which somehow influenced the world of gastronomy. You may know him as the Michelin Man, or by his real name, Bibendum.
I hope you enjoy it!

Damanhur and the Temples of Humankind
This week's episode is a conversation with the lovely Gazza, who is a Damanhurian.
Damanhur is an international community founded by spiritual researchers, pushing the boundaries of perception to bring catalyzed personal-collective growth, and galactic understanding of our connection to the universe.
This chat is definitely a little nod to one of my old series, Dying with Mon, and it’s absolutely fascinating. Gazza was just wonderful, she had such a warm presence despite this being over a video call, and that voice – I could’ve listened to her speak all day!
However - I do feel like I have to put in a quick disclaimer. There has been some controversy come up in the media about Damanhur. And although we do touch on it at the end, this episode isn’t about that – I just wanted to learn more about the community and their beliefs. But of course you are entitled to do your own research.
That being said – this is truly a fascinating conversation, and a lot of what Gazza said I could really relate with.
I really hope you enjoy it!

Living with Sex Dolls
This week I speak with a lovely bloke by the name of Rod. He enjoys photography and is engaged to a wonderful lady who is currently living overseas - and he lives with sex dolls.
I’m sure you may have already guessed, today’s topic is a little risqué, so if there are little ears about maybe save this for a bit later or chuck on the headphones.
Living with Sex Dolls... The name might bring with it certain connotations, however, keep an open mind because it’s an incredibly honest and open chat - we discuss things like mental health, common misconceptions about dolls, as well as some of the more “spicy” details. So without further ado – let’s get into it!
Thanks Rod for sharing your story!

I was not sure what to expect from this show, but I must say that it is a fascinating listen! It’s interesting to see what people think of death. Keep up the great work 👍🏾
