His voice has helped lead the band to gold records and sold out international tours but he’s still one of the gentlest, kindest souls in the biz. Singer and song-writer Fergus Linacre of Melbourne band Kingswood discusses his role in the band, Kingswood in 2020 and their new record Juveniles. Phoning in from his car, Ferg talks great songs, why he could never be an actor, and his not so secret love for Smooth FM. Intro trumpet & organ performance: Nic Ryan-Glenie.
Broden Kelly is a member of award winning comedy group Aunty Donna. A group who've crafted their career to be platform 'agnostic', Aunty Donna are free from the restraints of any one particular outlet or provider, but are they free from this lockdown? International tours, an Aria nominated album, world-class podcast and a top secret new project which has just wrapped in the US, is it all enough to survive through an enforced quarantine and subsequent months of isolation?
Jack Parsons fronts Melbourne band The Pretty Littles. They've just released a new album (painfully titled 'Weekend Away') which unintentionally has many parallels to how people are feeling at the moment. While cracking open tracks about missing a more care-free time, no more parties, and accepting that life is changing Jack speaks about silver linings throughout the bands career. Can he find a silver lining when everything is forced to come to a halt? Find out next on This is Your Life
Michelle Herbison is a new mum on maternity leave from her job in content marketing. Born 1 month after the first case of Covid-19 was recorded in Australia, her daughter Evelyn will possibly spend her first year in 'isolation'. I wanted to hear how Michelle felt about that.

Callum Padgham is a writer, producer, actor, comedian, musician and social weapon for good. Our chat informs the podcast to come. From total isolation.
