  • Interview - Natalie Mullen - Underwater Photography
    Feb 3 2026

    Natalie talks about being an underwater photographer, what it takes, what it means and how you do it.

    My favourite quote of the episode is "So I think the biggest thing, or what brings me meaning is, what we do on the surface actually has impact to the ocean and, and has serious impact. And if we don't have a Blue World, is how I would call it, a good, healthy ocean, we actually lose the green part of our land. And so the two are connected. And so things like recycling and choosing, you know, reusable items actually does matter, because of what I see under the ocean. and I wanna protect that. I wanna protect that so much because. They're so vulnerable. they can't choose a different world for themselves."

  • Interview - Helen Iles - Publisher
    Jan 27 2026

    Helen talks about being a publisher, what it takes, what it means and how you do it.

    My favourite quote of the episode is "I think encouraging the author. Book launches, I love to go to book launches and see the elation on the author's face when the sales start happening. They're out there, their book is out there. I just as much enjoy them having that first book in their hands as as they are."

  • Interview - Kelsey Gerdei - Canteen Manager
    Jan 20 2026

    Kelsey talks about being Canteen Manager, what it takes, what it means and how you do it.

    My favourite quote of the episode is "Yeah. I mean we have so much fun in the canteen. It's not, not too serious or anything like that, you know. We're all stepping over each other 'cause it is quite a smaller canteen. But, yeah, you know, Mum and I'll come back from a race and, you know, we'll be gloating about it, and then my partner's daughter would jump in as well and going, I beat you two, and that sort of stuff. So it's good comradery in the canteen and it's really good just to check out people's times, and I find it really good. Also, because I'm in the canteen as well as racing, I can still talk to people about the racing without having to go out and about in the pit. So it's good."
