Today, we are joined by Jase Hawkins. Jase likely needs no introduction; he’s the co-host of Nova 100’s Melbourne breakfast show, alongside the brilliant Lauren Phillips. Jase and Lauren started out together on KISS; in fact, they first were introduced in a hotel room, where their initial chemistry test took place, but in 2024, they lost their breakfast slot to Kyle and Jackie O, who began broadcasting out of Melbourne. However, there is much more to Jase than his warm and hilarious radio persona. 

In this conversation, Jase opens up about his early radio career and why he owes it all to Kyle Sandilands, how he’s processed the grief of losing both of his parents in the space of three years, and why he will give everyone the time of day, no matter who they are.

His career skyrocketed when he composed Matilda the Musical, and he’s just released his new album: Tim Minchin Time Machine, ahead of his 2025 Australian Tour ‘Songs The World Will Never Hear’. 

Twelve years ago, Tim was awarded an honorary doctorate at the University of WA when he shared his 9 Life Lessons with the graduating class. His speech went viral, with 5.6 million views on YouTube. So, instead of our regular format, we’re mixing things up this Tuesday and releasing a Life Lessons episode featuring the very philosophical Tim. 

In this conversation, Tim speaks about becoming a parent, the 30-year relationship he shares with his wife, Sarah, marriage, fidelity, and how they’ve stuck together, amongst all the fame. He opens up about how he’s dealt with public criticism, why he’ll never consume something he’s created, the importance of setting micro ambitions and achievable goals, and why it all comes down to luck.

Today, we speak to ex-AFL player Mitch Brown. Mitch likely needs no introduction – a few weeks ago, his interview with The Daily Aus made worldwide news and AFL history when he came out as the first openly male bisexual player. In 130 years, no player in the men’s league has ever identified as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, and the AFL is one of the last professional male sports leagues in the world for someone to identify as queer. 

In this conversation, Mitch speaks about moving to Perth at 18 to play for West Coast, and how it feels to be so apologetically himself after years of hiding his identity. We also discuss the response to his announcement, how he feels about the AFL clubs that remained silent, and the three core values that make up the relationship he shares with his girlfriend, Lou.

Today, we speak to AFLW player, Tayla Harris. Tayla was 17 years old when she was drafted to play for the Brisbane Lions back in 2017, marking the first official season of the AFLW. Eight years on, she’s had her fair share of scrutiny, on and off the ground, and today she reflects on it all…

In this conversation, Tayla opens up about how a fierce photo of her kicking a goal became one of the most talked-about moments in Australian sporting history, and why she chose to stand up for herself and others facing similar harassment online. She also speaks about where we’re at with equality when it comes to women’s sport and the 2025 AFLW season ahead.

Today, we speak to award-winning writer Lech Blaine. Lech has had an extraordinary life. In 2009, he survived a head-on collision that killed three of his best mates, which he wrote about vividly in his debut memoir, Car Crash. His latest family memoir, though, Australian Gospel, is an astonishing true story of his unconventional family held together by love and courage. 

Lech grew up in rural Queensland with his parents, Tom and Lenore Blaine, who were no strangers to the foster care system; they provided a warm and loving home to hundreds of children before they permanently raised Steven, John and Hannah, the biological children of Christian fanatics, Michael and Mary Shelley. 

Content warning: This conversation touches on themes of child abuse and pregnancy loss, so please listen with care.

Today, I speak to Jemma Sbeg, the host of The Psychology of Your 20s podcast. Jemma recorded her first episode in the back of her car—today, her show is adored by hundreds of thousands of people worldwide. And at 25, Jemma knows first-hand just how confusing and chaotic your 20s can be. 

Before Jemma pursued her podcast full-time, she worked in the mental health space, working closely with people at risk. 

In this conversation, Jemma speaks about the moment she quit her full-time job to pursue her passion project, why Ruthie Rodgers gifted her a handwritten letter at The River Cafe, how her grandmother’s love story has shaped her own outlook on love, how to date in your 20s and why she’ll never take her mental health for granted again.

What if we redefined the word “inheritance”? What we inherit in this lifetime stretches far beyond money. From the moment we’re born, we’re being shaped by Recipes, Rules, Relics and Rituals that we pick up along the way.

Today, we sit down with Olympic gold medalist Jessica Fox, also known as one of Australia’s most decorated Olympians. We all eagerly watched Jess give it her all at the 2024 Paris Olympics to claim the ultimate victory. But what Jess Fox has inherited is so much more than Gold medals. 

In this chat, Ruby spoke to Jess about her love and unwavering respect for her little sister Noémie, how she struggles with self-criticism and pressure, and the importance of soldiering on - and keeping it together - when things were shaky in the lead up to the biggest moment of her life.
