    #132 Rick Grossman Unfiltered: The Realities of the Rockstar Lifestyle
    May 29 2024

    Rick Grossman is an Australian rock musician renowned for his role as the bass guitarist for two iconic Australian bands, Divinyls and Hoodoo Gurus.


    Rick's rockstar journey has seen incredible highs and challenging lows. He shot to international fame with the Divinyls but faced a tough battle with heroin addiction, which led to his departure from the band in 1987. After a long and hard-fought recovery, Rick made a remarkable comeback with the Hoodoo Gurus, with whom he continues to tour with today.


    In our conversation, Rick shared insights into his musical beginnings, his experiences with Divinyls and Hoodoo Gurus, what makes Australian rock bands special, the drug culture in the rock and roll scene, his recovery journey, his passion for rugby league, and much more.


    It's been quite a ride, and Rick has a wealth of wisdom and stories to share. Enjoy.

    #130 Stab Mag's Sam McIntosh: Riding the waves of change
    May 15 2024

    As a kid from Punchbowl, I wasn’t your typical surfer, but I still became mad obsessed with the sport.


    One of my fondest childhood memories was heading to my local news agency to pick up a surf magazine. Surf media has evolved significantly since those days, far beyond those paper magazines.


    It was great chatting with the co-founder of Stab Mag Sam McIntosh to dive deeper into the surfing world.


    We discussed his family's impactful move from inland to the coast during his youth, his beginnings working at surf magazines, a crucial book project with Taj Burrow that was a career turning point, the origins of Stab Magazine, the craziness that exists in the surf industry, the creative process behind Stab''s projects, our shared love for risk-taking and much more.

A straight review

An unexpected must listen for myself.

I have always found Mark Bouris interesting and charismatic. His genuine curiosity with his guests leads the conversations in a natural but comprehensive way.
At first I only listened to the guests I knew - but quickly found myself circling back around to listen to the rest.
All walks of life, backgrounds and topics - buts all doing things personally or professionally in a passionate manner.
Definitely recommended!
